Simplify your decorating

12.06.2013

My daughter created this decoration out of a glass vase, Christmas balls, fluff, green tissue paper and an ornament.

 

Unless you love to overdo decorating and it’s fun for you (see Giddy Christmas), you may be simplifying your decorating this year.

What helps for me is to come up with a theme – perhaps color (this year it’s red, green, white/silver), or an objects like snow globes or angels, or themes like country, woodland, or 60’s.

A theme limits the decorations you get out of your boxes. All the gold, blue and maroon decorations went back in the box this year. A theme provides a cohesiveness to your decorating. It also allows your creativity to flow as you find objects from other parts of the house to bring into your decorating.

Need some ideas for decorating this year?
