Holiday Decorating – No Elves Required

With Thanksgiving behind us, we’ve started the mad dash of the holidays. It often feels like we’re running from place to place crossing items off our to do list, instead of really enjoying all the season has to offer. One of our favorite ways to celebrate is to create a safe haven at home. Arming yourselves with a few decorating tricks and lots of hot chocolate will help keep you in the holiday spirit. (At the very least, the cocoa always seems to do the trick for us.)

Antlers In The Mountains And Your Living Room

I am an animal lover.  Love the deer…don’t shoot me.  They are gorgeous creatures.  I hope many of you agree with me.

With them shedding their antlers naturally, it is wonderful to find them for your home and make them as striking as when they crown a buck.

Some ideas?   See more of our thoughts below in the fabulous Kansas City Star’s House + Home section, written by Stacy Downs.

Holiday Decor Tip #8

We all love holiday decor and like every other season, your home’s decor says everything about you.  Make it look festive, together and beautiful!  I wanted to share a few fun and easy tips the last two weeks before Christmas.

May you have a great holiday and may your home be fabulous!!!  Cheers!


A favorite table centerpiece of mine is filling the middle of the table with candy, fruit and nuts. It is beautiful and when the meal is over, everyone loves to linger, laugh and nibble.



Who doesn't love the decadence of never ending chocolate? Lovely and yummy.



If you choose to share shelled nuts, don't forget to put out a nutcracker or two. It is fun to watch your family and guests interact and crack them for each other.

Limes in glass containers, fresh flowers, make your own garland out of any ornaments and have a wonderful color theme.



Vary the heights and decorate your own candles.

Shake up your color theme a bit. All golds? Even turquoise, plums or grays can be gorgeous.

Could it be simplier? Try holly, berries, a candy cane...



Try with a dab of spray paint or hair spray and glitter....

Saw this in New York City. So simple to just cut a tree in your yard or the bottom branches off of your tree. Add a little artificial berries for color!





Same concept as above in a planter. Get the height in the middle with Red Dogwood, sticks or Pussywillow as shown.





Notice the groups of birch branches tied with a ribbon...
