Happy, Happy Monday!! Tomorrow is Christmas Eve! Can you believe it??? I sure can’t! Its seems to go by faster and faster every year! This year we did things a little different. We have some presents under the tree already! I know a lot of people do that , but we never have and I have to admit I LIKE IT! It is so fun to see the kids trying to guess what is what.. I think next year I will have a code on it, to make it even more interesting!! My mom did that and I loved it…. I wanted to share a few quick decorating ideas, I know I should have shared these at the beginning of the month.. oh dear, I am still learning! These will be great for next year and after Christmas sales when everything is super cheap! STOCK UP! Today is THE day to run those last minute errands, make sure we have everything we need so we can spend the next few days as a family! I am looking really forward to that. Last night, we started our holiday vacation with a movie, popcorn and snow ice cream! We got a lot of snow, so we will be doing that again! I wanted to let you know, tomorrow I am sharing a very simple but great gift idea! Check it out for that last minute gift!
Super simple, grab a few holiday shaped nesting boxes and a simple silver tree! This is in our upstairs bath. Total cost $3.00
This one is great, I think things look good in threes. The tree and the sign are from the dollar store, the ornament is one from my mom, Thanks mom! This is on the counter in the kitchen!
I found this cute reindeer candle, He is in our downstairs bath, total cost $1.00!
DOLLAR STORE DECORATIONS!! The ornaments, the star and the big ornament ball are all from the dollar store! Well, everything but the jar.This little set up is in the kitchen. I LOVE IT!
Three simple snowflakes hung with fishing line. Again, I like sets of odd numbers, These were also from the dollar store!
this is a fun use what you got idea. I had the ornaments, a simple wine glass, a candle and candle holder ( all from the dollar store)
Flip the glasses upside down, put the candle on top, throw a pretty flower in the center and ta duh a pretty centerpiece!
These are some great dollar store decorating ideas, I just wanted to show you don’t need a ton of money to make your house festive! I love having little decorations in each area of the house. It makes it feel more magical than just the Christmas tree. I hope you all have a great day! Have fun getting your last minute things done!!!
Huge hugs,
