chase plain ornaments for them to design
with paint or pens. Clear ornaments can
be filled with glitter or tinsel to create
a unique look for your tree. Decorated
ornaments also make great and thought-
ful gifts.
Embellish your tree by adding red or
burlap ribbon from the top of each side
and adding a topper. Then, consider
coordinating the color scheme of your
tree with gifts, using those that were
wrapped early as decor throughout your
house.
Deck the Front Door
Make a DIY wreath by gluing bows
or pinning ornaments to a foam wreath.
Designing your own door decor doesn’t
have to be expensive, and it will allow
you to add your own personal touch to
your home’s entryway. Complete the look
with festive outdoor lighting. Affordable
options are available at such variety stores
as Dollar General.
Design a Festive Mantle
Decorate your fireplace mantle for
the holidays without spending much
time or money. Wrap a garland in mini
string lights and hang leftover ornaments
to continue the theme from your tree.
Create handmade bows to place at each
end of the mantle using your choice of
ribbon. If you don’t have a mantle, you
can create a fireplace-like space with a
cluster of string lights or LED candles in
a nook of your home. Then, remember to
hang the stockings!
Create a Cleaning Game Plan
The holidays can be fun, festive and
messy. Create a day-by-day cleaning
game plan, focusing on one area of your
house at a time. This will save you stress
and allow you more time to get orga-
nized. Be sure you’re stocked up on all
your holiday prep cleaning supplies,
including sponges, microfiber cloths and
wet mop refills.
For holiday savings, you can sign up

spirit doesn’t have to break the bank.
Save time and money decorating your
home, so you can spend more stress-free
moments with friends and family.
