Didn't have time to spruce up your home in time for the holidays? No need to worry as we have very nice last-minute ideas for you that you could easily do in your space.
If you forgot to get the most important part of Christmas decorations -- the tree -- no need to settle for the lanky one at the lot and just display the colorful ornaments instead in several areas of your home. Put them in glass cloches or adorn them on your walls. You don't need a tree to make your place look festive.
Time to stock up on your craft paper! From simple snowflakes to DIY gift tags, you could do so much with some red, green, and gold paper. If you're hosting a holiday dinner at home, you could create your own Christmas figure shaped place cards. Other than this, you could also opt for some washi tape. You can create a tree-shaped figure on your wall for a cute and temporary wall decoration and you could use it while wrapping presents to give it a little bit more personality.
Also, take a look at your scraps at home. If you have milk jugs lying around the house, put in some Christmas lights inside -- then paint on an adorable snowman face on it. Voila! Cute snowman décor. You can utilize your empty wine bottles and paint minimalistic figures of Santa, a reindeer, and other ideal Christmas figures.
You can make this a fun arts and crafts activity for your kids as well! There's so much possibility with a few toilet paper rolls and soda bottles, and you can let your child freely express his or her creativity during the holiday season. Whether you're making cute little reindeers out of toilet paper rolls or penguins from soda bottle bottoms -- you're sure to enjoy the festive season even before the big day comes!
