Another way to save, if you like red in your Christmas decor, is to buy solid red items or generic patterns (polka dots, stripes, etc) instead of Christmas specific designs. These can then be used not only at Christmas, but also for Valentines Day, 4th of July, etc. I do the same thing with clothing. I don’t have any holiday specific clothes, but do have solid red and green sweaters that I can add a holiday pin or scarf to for Christmas. Then they work equally well for Valentine’s or St Patrick’s Days.

One way that I used to save money on Christmas decor when my kids were little (and I had no money) was to make gingerbread people to use as Christmas tree ornaments. My kids and I would spend an entire weekend making and decorating the cookies. We made a hole at the top of each cookie before we baked them and used twine to hang the gingerbread people on the tree. So cute and cheap! It always made the house smell good too! I now have quite the collection of gingerbread cookie cutters and use those in a jar as decor. Also, so cute!!

I was so hoping you’d do a video like this! Love all the inspiration. Your home is lovely at Christmas! One time I scored boxes and boxes of garland for a few dollars at a children’s boutique store that was going out of business. That has been my main staple for years now! I also have bought boxes of lights for pennies at hardware stores on New Year’s Day sales! Another thing I’ve done to make my stuff look cohesive and not buy”new” is to faux flock my trees. It gave them a soft neutral look. I’ve also been able to find gold ornaments at the $ store which are a great neutral for Christmas. And lastly, I’ve tried to take the hand me downs from my grandmothers. I have a nativity set that’s was spray painted gold, that my grandma made entirely from trash. It sounds strange but it’s so lovely! She had 8 kids and lived through the depression. I treasure that nativity and also her thrifty mindset that it taught me!

Yes, my favorite tip you gave is to use everyday decor than add touches of the season. I also read somewhere that’s a very “European” way of design and being someone that pulls French farmhouse in style it just works. My biggest tip is to decorate more for the season vrs just for the holiday that way your decorations have slightly more longevity and you aren’t putting up a ton of Christmas just to remove it and transition into winter.

High quality fabric ribbon with a selvage can be reused year after year. It holds up great. To “iron” it run it through a curling iron. I have grosgrain ribbon that I’ve used on my foyer garland for 20 years or more and a woven red plaid ribbon I’ve tied to dining room chandelier garland for over 30 years! Occasionally I’ll hand wash it and re-trim the ends. But it lasts a long time if you get a high quality (I like Offray brand) non-wired ribbon for tying around garlands. I use the wired verse for bows on artificial wreaths and leave them on year after year, just refluffing and shaping the bows each year when I put them up.

Yes, go shopping and am so overwhelmed with all the products on the shelves. I just pick up a bit here and there every year and transition it in with what I already have. I believe that less is more.,I decorate and there is plenty up there but I am learning how to decorate, but gracefully. I also do a lot of crafts so I enjoy making things too. I love the idea of using material strips for ribbon. Have some nice green and white striped material I might use some of that for ribbons. I like a lot of greenery too. It is rather expensive. I go around to all different stores and buy bits here and there and I also add a bit of real greens here and there. Love the smell. I go to garage sales all year long, and pick up holiday items all year long, it is a nice surprise when I pull something out I bought in the springtime and packed away.

I always buy thrift, yard sale or clearance. Building every year to my stash. I would recommend never buying trendy items, after awhile it looks dated anyway. I like building on the traditional colors with some burgundy and pink thrown in. I look forward to some day dividing my Christmas stuff and giving my son half. He adores Christmas and vintage antique items and I always point out things from his grandparents etc that he will get when he gets his own home. I've taught him to appreciate pre-loved items and he loves the hunt at thrift stores. My mother never thrifted until she was in her seventies, she always thought everything would be junk. She's gone with me a couple times and is shocked at how many new and valuable items I find. I have a gorgeous real holly leaf ornament that has been dipped in silver and is very heavy that I found at the thrift store along with many other beautiful items. I've even found solid sterling silverware and a gold women's watch clock necklace that's a hundred years old for fourteen dollars.

In the '60's my Depression mindset (and budget) grandmother pulled out cheap pressed glass pieces she didn't like or use and attack them with silver spray paint and glitter. Some might be lined with a little cloth and cookies. Others might hold dime store candles or misc ornaments (left after breakage - oops - by the grandkids). Sweet gum balls might get painted pink with silver glitter and display in a bowl.

How did you finish the sideboard table in your dining room? Actually, I believe it was your Grandfather's dresser. I read that you sanded it down. Just wondering if you bleached it, added a wax coat, or a top coat to protect it. I absolutely love the finish!!!

I love your faux cedar garland. Where do you buy it every year. Is it a certain brand that you get?
@PineandProspectHome2 жыл бұрын
I have collected it over the years from a lot of different places, thrifting, craft stores, etc. I am on the lookout for more this year as well so I'll try to remember if I find any to post it on my IG stories!

@@PineandProspectHome Walmart has really upped their game on Christmas garland. I've bought that the last couple of years for outside of my new house. I just ordered a strand of cedar from Creative Co-op for inside. It was super expensive but other the stuff from that brand has been really nice quality so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will be nice and I will be able to match it next year. :)

Good ideas. Appreciate your thrift approach. You home is always lovely. A comment on the audio: it is not synced with the video and make it hard to watch and listen. Disjointed. Played it twice, muted to watch, a second time to listen. Blessings.
