Candles

Load up on lots candles. Place them on the mantle or coffee and end tables. Candles evoke cozy, romantic vibes that leave you feeling relaxed and at ease. If you’re concerned about small children and animals, invest in battery operated candles!

Not all Christmas decorations are strictly for the holiday. Here are few décor pieces to keep out:

  • Snowflakes: Decorate with snowflakes. For a fun family activity, have the kids cut out paper snowflakes and hang them in the windows or mirrors. Another idea is to decorate with simple and elegant throw pillows and blankets patterned with snowflakes.

  • Faux Flowers and Garlands: Re-use faux flowers and garland. You can switch out your holiday vase for a clear glass vase or remove ornaments and other décor surrounding these pieces for a more minimalist look.
