Do you love to decorate for Christmas as much as I do? I found this table runner at Target last year. I love it! It has all of the colors you would expect to see at Christmas!
The candlesticks came from Hobby Lobby, I purchased two at the time and each one had a scroll broken off one end. They were part of their garden décor at the end of spring and I believe they were $3.99 a piece! I added white paint to mine to give an older look and charm. Don't be afraid to interchange items, I use what I like whether it is meant for outside/inside, spring/winter, who cares? Let your imagination go wild and decorate with what you love!
The ornament placemats? Well... I found them at Dollar Tree! They were meant to be hung on the wall, but when I looked at them I saw placemats instead! For $6.00 total for 6 placemats, I thought why not? At that price you could even let your guests take them home to decorate and do as they wish with them, or you could do it as a project together when everyone has finished eating. Keep the kids busy with a project, glitter, glue, and Christmas cut outs, the sky is the limit!
Do you see items like this and think I can make that into something else? I hope to inspire you to be creative and enjoy making your house a home and surrounding yourself with things that make you happy while keeping within those low-cost parameters.
