2. Use presents as a décor

Since you spent a lot of time wrapping the gifts, why not show them off? Line your corners, or stair cases, with presents in various fun patterns for a simple and chic décor idea.

3. Vintage decoration

Create your own vintage Christmas decorations with antique pieces. For example, the old sled adds a vintage feel while the burlap sack filled with Christmas trees clipping adds a rustic touch.

4. Don’t forget the dinner table

Who said that Christmas dinner tables should always be decorated with reds and greens? Go against the grain and try other color pallets, such as aqua green and hot pink peonies as shown in the picture below.

Spice up your Christmas dinner table with various colors instead of just red and green.

5. Wallpapers as fancy wrapping paper

Wrap important gifts with wallpaper instead of gift wrappers, since wallpaper come in larger variety of patterns, and they are more heavy-duty.

Wallpaper makes great Christmas gift wrappers.

6. Go Green

Let nature be your inspiration and use fresh evergreens and garlands to decorate your home this Christmas. They not only look good, but smell heavenly too.

7. Don’t fear artificial Christmas trees

Artificial trees don’t leave a mess in your rooms like actual trees, and their branches are easy to curve and bend to better hold ornament.

Artificial trees are cheaper, much easier to handle, but look as good as real ones.

8. Stage a holiday shelf

Organize your shelves with seasonal cheer and turn them into a holiday vignette! Mix in bowls of ornaments, tabletop trees, and other Christmas accents to create your ultimate holiday shelf.

9. Add sparkle everywhere

Everywhere? EVERYWHERE! Don’t just add sparking lights inside your home, but drape it everywhere: on your balcony, on the greenery on the balcony, and even on the greenery outside your house.

Add sparkling lights to your outdoor space as well.

10. Give it a little quirk

Give your Christmas decoration some character by straying away from the traditional decoration. For example, adding Christmas ornaments to chandeliers is easy, cheap, and adds great color to the room.

Hanging Christmas ornaments from a chandelier takes your Christmas decoration to a whole new level.

These tips and tricks are guaranteed to transform your home’s holiday aesthetic.
