Many of us are trying our best to simplify, spend less and scale back, especially when we decorate. Instead of creating MORE work for ourselves around the holidays, wouldn’t we all like to do less, but enjoy it more?
I’m Melissa from The Inspired Room and I love finding simple, easy and affordable ideas to decorate my home all year round — and the holiday season is no exception! I’m excited to share a few SIMPLE, NO STRESS ideas with you today on Tip Junkie’s Top Ten Holiday Trends!
We all deserve a pretty home to celebrate the holidays, but that does not mean the process has to be time consuming, expensive, complicated, or make us want to pull our hair out!
If you are like me and want the satisfaction of being creative without the stress, I’ve gathered a few easy no-stress projects and ideas you can do to get yourself in the holiday spirit.
Decorate!
Mason Jars
I’m a big fan of using mason jars for decorating! This year I made an adorable Jingle Bell Jar that works just as well for decorating as it would for gift giving! It is super easy, but will make you feel like you made something special! Find the instructions for this jar and more ideas here. Find a tip for making your own snow and other mason jar projects here!
Cozy Felt Wreath
I made my own Cozy Winter Felt Wreath this year! I love this project! It makes me feel crafty even though it was embarrassingly easy to do! Find the easy step by step tutorial here!
Dress Up an Old Wreath
Have an old wreath you aren’t fond of any more? Rather than throwing it away or buying a new one, how about a quick update to dress it up for the holidays? It is SO easy! See the before and after of this wreath right here!
DIY {wipe off} Holiday Message Plate
I love festive holiday plates with words and messages on them. See what I used to make my own DIY wipe off holiday message plate! This project takes two minutes tops!
Small Trees!
If you haven’t yet put up a big Christmas tree, why not go with a smaller more manageable one this year? I put up a very simple but pretty Silver Spoon Tree in my dining room using my mom’s old silver! It is so much fun decorating a theme tree like this! See more of that sweet little tree here!
I’ve got lots more inspiration for your home over at The Inspired Room!
