We’re slammed wrapping up our gift guides (stay tuned) but thought we’d share a few brilliant holiday hacks.

Taller = Better

ALWAYS.  Hit the garage and get yourself some paint cans to put under your tree stand base.

Sprig of Tree

Stunning and so easy.  Will probably fall off your actual tree as you bring it indoors.  Use in hallways, bathrooms or the guest room.  Genius!

Tree in a Jar

You Got This

Jazz up the appi’s this holiday season …. glue, elastic etc will do the trick.

Cane Holders

Window Cane

Who doesn’t like some eye candy?  Ribbons, nails, cane and hang.  Remember odd numbers are more interesting so stick to the 3-5-7 rules.

Head Outdoors

It’s all well and fine to use faux greens in garlands and the like but duh, head outside grab some cones (the pine version we mean!) and filler and fluff up your store-bought version!

Check the Garbage

It’s the one time that being tardy on the trash may work in your favor!  next year you’ll remember to buy white but if all else fails find the spraypaint and make some pumpkin snowmen.  Adorable right?!

Tradition That Keeps on Giving

Who doesn’t like looking at old photos.  Bust out the printer and grab some heavier stock.  Print family favorites then use clothespins and fishing line, twine or the like to string them up in a garland. Choose to switch them up in future years or not. Brilliant right?!

PT OUT

Swap the towel for the ribbon and wrap on.
