The holiday season is filled with magic and wonder, but infusing that feeling into our home decor can be a challenge. The solution!? Try to simplify and make your holiday decorating an extension of your everyday style - add the simple touches to bring the romance and elegance of the season alive. It's 'low commitment decorating' (no paint, wallpaper, furniture) where you can get all the festive feels of the holiday season, without the fuss of a storage locker filled with nutcrackers and snowmen statuettes! Here are a few of our favourite ways to add simple holiday elegance throughout your home.

Add some holiday curb appeal and delight your guests as they enter into your holiday party! We like to keep it pretty simple on the exteriors - think natural wreaths with ribbon, garland and twinkle lights. Don't forget to decorate both high and low todraw the eye over the entire expanse you want highlighted.

There is no need to change your entire colour scheme if it is not a classic "holiday" palette. For example, if you have a classic blue and white scheme throughout your home, simply add some green and gold touches for instant holiday feel. You can also use your existing baskets and urns by filling them with greenery, ornaments or pinecones to add that festive touch without breaking the bank.  

Living rooms and mantles often get all the glory when holiday decorating rolls around, but adding unexpected festive touches throughout your home can spread the holiday joy.
