Decorating When Your Budget Won't Budge


A baby shower for twins in December?  Our job was to kick it old school and get creative in combining the holidays with ‘his and her’ décor.   These two watermelon baby carriages are festive, right?
You can pretty much throw anything on a little Christmas tree to play up your theme. Construction paper stars look rustic and beautiful and cost next to nothing.
What better way to frame the future?
Maybe a little holiday humor?
Their stockings were hung by the chimney with care. My daughter just added stickers for their names (so as not to lock the parents in on their handles).
One last holiday tip I heard this year. Turn a wreath upside down and fasten it to your light fixture. I know, I know – I should have added a pink and blue ornament, but at least it gave my neglected wreath a new purpose in life.
Happy Holidays, everyone!
