When you have a small home, floor space is hard to come by and shouldn't be overly cluttered with holiday decor. Keep your floor space open, and your home will feel bigger and easier to move around. But just because you're keeping the floor space clean doesn't mean that your home can't have some holiday cheer! One easy idea and an instant way to inject style is to choose one wall as the focal point and focus your holiday decor there. Choosing a color theme or keeping the items in the same style is a good way to keep everything on the wall looking as though they belong together without having to be too matchy matchy.
In my home, our color theme for this holiday is ice blue and purple with touches of silver and white. Because we are so tight on space this year, I am pulling some of my white ornaments, shelf items, and white cardstock for Christmas silhouettes and throwing them on our main wall with our flat screen television. Not only does that wall add instant holiday, but it makes our TV look so much more appealing!
Another space saving way to dress up your home: string rows of lights up and down one wall. I love white Christmas lights all year round. I used them one Thanksgiving hung all around the ceiling, and it was the perfect glow for our holiday dinner. Having a party? String them with some slack across the ceiling to set the scene!
