Photograph of a Homemade Christmas DecorationFestive decorations can make a Hurricane rental home feel cozy for the holidays. Luckily, your holiday décor doesn’t need to be elaborate or costly. Instead, with just a few necessary materials and some creativity, you can produce a low budget and easy holiday décor items for your home. As follows, we have put together a couple of our favorite holiday décor do-it-yourself projects on a budget.

Flannel It Up

Several things can warm up cold winter nights like flannel sheets, blankets, and pillows. Simply changing your regular sheets for a set made of warm flannel will deliver a new level of coziness to your home. You need to consider putting flannel throw pillows around the house for a quick boost. If storage space is a problem, think about making or buying seasonal pillow covers. Pillow covers are easy to make and can be transformed for new patterns once the holidays have ended.

Glass Jar Snow Globe

If you have large glass jars in your kitchen, you can quickly convert them into holiday-themed decorations! Just apply white sugar or flour to the bottom of the jar, then top with model village houses, trees, and accessories. Tie an adorable ribbon around the rim, and you’ve now got a beautiful glass jar snow globe for your home.

Holiday Lanterns

Decorative lanterns are a great year-round décor thing. Prepare yours for the holidays by filling them with strings of lights or shiny ornaments. String a bright ribbon at the top for even more holiday appeal. You can utilize different sizes of lanterns for a dramatic effect. You can also group a few string light lanterns in a fireplace for quick mood lighting or assemble lanterns filled with ornaments nearby an entryway.

Gingerbread House Advent

For a unique way to count down the days to Christmas, try making a gingerbread house advent for your shelf or mantel. You can buy or build simple little wooden or cardboard houses and then paint them to look like gingerbread. Or, if you’re feeling ambitious, make them out of real gingerbread! Make sure to number them, and after that, add a small gift or treat underneath to make the holiday countdown twice as sweet.

Bird House Christmas Village

One more easy décor project uses small wooden birdhouses to create a charming Christmas village display. Get small unpainted birdhouses, decorate each one to look like a lovely holiday village. Scatter some imitation snow on each roof and some model village accessories for even more pint-sized cuteness. Ultimately, hang a string of lights above your village to give your display a lovely and holiday feel.

Colorful Holiday Garland

If you prefer working with fabrics, consider making an effortless and vibrant felt garland for your home or Christmas tree. Using small strips of colorful felt, you simply tie them onto a long piece of twine and afterward hang them anywhere. Use felt strips in your theme color, or go directly with a whole rainbow. In any case, you’ll have made a gorgeous holiday decoration that you can use over and over again.
