Quick and Easy Holiday Decorating Tips

 

Are unexpected holiday guests arriving? Are you throwing a last-minute holiday party? Have you waited until the very last minute to decorate for the holidays? Take the stress out of holiday decorating with these quick and easy holiday decorating tips from Carrie Kelly Designs And Boutique.

The front door of a home is the first thing a guest will notice. Welcome guests with a beautiful wreath hanging on the door. Many markets and home stores have selections of ready-to-go wreaths. Instant decor update.

Add candles to give every room a warm glow. My favorites are the flameless candles. They look so real and without the mess. Everything just looks better in candlelight. I sprinkle candles throughout each room.

 A quick garland on the mantle is all that is needed to make a room feel cozy and decorated. A pre-lit garland is what I always use. Adding extra bows, pinecones, ornaments, and other natural elements creates a beautiful showpiece in no time.

Holiday placemats quickly give a high-end look to a dining or kitchen table. I always use personalized placemats to add just that little extra touch. I added a monogrammed napkin and napkin ring as well.  A simple greenery sprig finished the look.

As an added touch, I place a wreath on the back of each dining chair. A simple gold cord looks elegant against the greenery. A noticed addition when entering the room.

These are just a few of my quick and easy tips to decorate a space in no time. By focusing on a few key areas the house comes alive with the feel of the holiday season. Let your unique personality shine with Carrie Kelly Designs And Boutique.
