5 Quick and Easy Holiday Decorating Ideas for Busy People

Posted on by Boden

There are many holidays throughout the year, from New Year’s to Christmas and in-between. They are exciting times to relax with family and friends. But, how can you create a festive and inviting home with your busy family life? Or, perhaps you are currently renting and are limited in what you can hang or change. So, here are five quick and easy holiday decorating ideas to add holiday cheer to your home.

1. Add Some Decorative Blankets and Throw Pillows

A simple and elegant way to create a comfortable and inviting room is to decorate with throw pillows or blankets. Select colors and textures that already complement your existing decor. And, add a touch of glam by choosing pillows with sequins or beading.

Also, if you’re looking to invest in a piece that will last beyond the holidays, choose a pillow or blanket that has a snowflake design or plaid pattern. This motif works wonderfully through the holidays and into the remaining winter season. This is one of the quickest holiday decorating ideas that you can use all year long.

2. Use Holiday Door Hangers

Be sure to take advantage of the space on your interior and exterior doors. Standard door hangers easily hang on the top of your doors with no need for sticky adhesive or nails. Use door hangers to display traditional wreaths or get creative by hanging stockings or banners.
