Fun & Thrifty Decorating Ideas

Submitted by: anonymous 11/10/2009 1:40 PM

Wrap your hanging pictures in wrapping paper and tie with nice thick ribbon. Just like you would a gift. Hang them back up. I suggest staying with solid color wrapping paper and gold will go with any decor.

Wrap your throw pillows on the couch or bed in a holiday color and tie up with ribbon, same idea and again I suggest solid holiday colors for impact. Whatever compliments your decor.

Carefully unwrap and save for next year.

Very cute and decoratively effective idea! We have a local restaurant that has been doing this each year with the artwork on their walls and it looks very nice. Different areas of the dining lounge are wrapped in different color themes, i.e. one wall with solid or printed paper in red, another in blue, etc. Lots of possibilities for application in areas of ones home. Thanks!

Make paper snow flakes (find you tube directions to show you how if you don't alredy know) and tape them to windows (use scotch tape so it doesn't show) and patio doors! These you don't have to take down after Christmas. They can stay up all winter! Snow men area great winter decor that is versatile for Christmas and winter decorating too!

Now is the time to buy Christmas wrap on sale. I stock up with dif prints at after Christmas sales.

I use dif colors and patterns of wrapping paper on my kitchen cabinet doors. Use double face tape to hold it on. Really neat and cheap decorations.

To remove the tape use some olive oil or avon skin so soft oil .Will take the sticky tape off and not hurt the finish.
