Whether you're decorating your first Christmas tree or your tree of many years needs a "sprucing" up, these ideas can help you have a beautiful, elegant tree by reusing what you already have!

To begin, the only real investment after the purchase of your tree will be the lights.  For the most elegant look, I suggest white lights.  White lights are classic, serene, and elegant.  If that's too dull for you, go for a single color.  For a more fun, casual look get the multi-colored.  I never recommend blinking lights inside the house.  Too busy!   

Now, for the free decorations!  You probably have the makings of some great ornaments around your home already-- you just didn't know it!  A lot of everyday items can be turned into ornaments-- you just need to see them in a new way.  Here's how!

•  Christmas Balls:  Old glass balls that are scratched, the wrong colors, or just look shabby can be reused.  Rinse them in a dish tub of soapy water and the color usually comes right off.  The glass is actually clear and the color is just a film over it.  Now you have clear glass balls that can be painted, glittered, covered in fabric, beads, and ribbon-anything you can think of.  Tip:  Use a thin paint brush to add glue to the inside of the ball and then sprinkle in glitter.  Or paint the inside with the paint of your choice.

•  Flowers:  Have an old wreath that has seen better days?  Any dried or silk flower arrangements you're done with?  Pull out the best flowers, fake fruit, and ribbons and use to decorate your tree!  Ribbon can be cut and made into several bows.  I have a friend who wanted a Victorian looking tree so we found faux roses, peonies, and hydrangeas around her home and used them on her tree.  It was beautiful!

•  Tiny Christmas Presents:  When I was young we decided to add a second tree for just us kids.  Since we couldn't afford to buy more ornaments we had to get very creative.  We took tiny jewelry and gift boxes and wrapped them with wrapping paper and yarn and then hung them on the tree.  They were adorable!  To this day we still use some of them!  Tip:  Use wrapping paper in solid colors or with very small print for the best effect.

•  Around the House:  Try looking at anything you come across in the house as a potential ornament.  Costume jewelry, tiny stuffed animals, seashells, copper cookie cutters, party favors, tiny toys, small pictures in frames, chandelier crystals, strands of pearls, tiny glass perfume bottles, small figurines, collections of small things such as spoons-- really, anything that can be tied with a ribbon and hung on the tree!  Start looking around! 

•  Memories:  My most important tip of all!  This tip requires planning ahead, but you should start now-- it will be well worth it!  Whenever my family travels we bring home a Christmas tree ornament from that place so that when we trim the tree, we remember our travels.  We also save party favors from weddings, showers, and other special events so we can add them to the tree.  We remember baby Grace's baby shower, Shirley and Patrick's wedding, Aunt Ida's 75^th birthday, and many others.  We say a prayer for them as we add their ornaments to the tree.  Every year the tree becomes richer with memories.

 

By getting creative with what you have, you too can start making a memorable Christmas tree.  Through the years as we've collected more ornaments and memories, trimming the tree becomes more than just another holiday chore.  It becomes a walk down memory lane and along with that, gratitude for all we've been given.  Merry Christmas!

The change of seasons, getting ready for holiday guests, family dinners, and get-togethers with friends!  Tis the season for decluttering!  What?  Who has time for that?  You do!  Really!  It's not that bad if you do a little at a time, as you go.  Here are some tips to get you on your way to a clutter-free home:

 

•   The Coat Closet:  The cold weather has come and the coats, scarves, gloves, and hats are at the front of the closet!  But what is lurking in the back?  What has fallen on the floor?  Get those coats that don't fit, those hats that itch, those unwanted scarves outta here!  Take a good look at shoes and boots-do they still fit?  Are they still in good shape?  If not, place them all in a big plastic bag and take them out to your car to donate.  That's right-take them right out to the car.  When you need to hang up your guests' coats, you'll be glad you did!

•   Kitchen Cupboards:  As you entertain, pay attention to what you are NOT using!  Serving dishes and trays, glassware, the odd utensil you're not really sure what to do with-if they haven't been used this past year, out the door they go!  When the entertaining is done and it's time to put everything away, you'll have a much easier time of it! 

•   The Linen Closet:  If you have houseguests, they will probably see your linen closet!  Are you ready?  Gather the worn towels and blankets and donate them to a local animal shelter.  Often animals are brought into the shelters cold and wet and most just want something to lie on.  Your donation would bring some comfort. 

A little bit at a time, baby steps, will get you on your way!  You can do it!  I know you can!

 

Merry Christmas!

Is it really possible to declutter a home during the holidays?  There's shopping to be done, trees to be trimmed, decorations and lights to be hung, the list goes on and on.  How can someone even think about cleaning out a house with so much going on?  Well, I'll tell ya!  This is actually a great time of year to purge the stuff we no longer want!

 

Since it's unlikely we'll go through all the Christmas stuff any other time of year, take the time now to purge as you go.

 •   When you're decorating the tree, toss or donate the ornaments you no longer want.  Consider each one-is it sentimental, a memory, given to you from a loved one, beautiful, or precious to you in some way?  Then keep it!  Otherwise, toss or donate!

•   Same thing with decorations-have some of them lost their luster?  Have you changed your decorating theme?  Are there some you don't even use anymore?

•   The Unwanted Gifts:  Throughout the year you and your family may have been given gifts you had no need for or just didn't want.  Not wanting to waste them, they've been set aside possibly to re-gift.  Gather them all together and give them away.  Do it this Christmas, before the year is out!    

•   Ditch the stuff that's broken or in need of repair.  Just do it.  If you haven't fixed those lights, glued that figurine back together, or anything else that's on your to-do list, you probably won't and it's not worth the space it's taking up in your life.

After Christmas, when it's time to pack it all away again, you'll have less to deal with and it will be easier to organize.  Make sure your boxes are marked clearly and all is stored safely.  And be proud of yourself for getting it done!  You'll be bringing less clutter and more space into your New Year! 

I've had clients tell me they actually feel lighter, like a weight has been lifted off them after getting rid of stuff they didn't need or want.  And who doesn't need that after all those holiday goodies?
