Decking the halls is how to make your space look festive, but you want to do it without going too crazy. Finding the right combination of color and sparkle to fit with your home decor is essential for keeping your space looking welcoming — and not like an overstuffed holiday cookie. Think about using your favorite existing items alongside holiday sparkle for the right collection of decor.

Make the Entryway Sparkle

When you're having guests over, light the way with DIY frozen candle holders studded with holiday trimmings that are perfect for nestling LED tea lights, which won't melt the containers. If you live in a warmer climate, sprinkle artificial snow and nestle in a cute reindeer that lets everyone know you're ready for the holidays.

Welcome Guests

Set up your entryway table to welcome guests while displaying your pretty holiday cards. Use a garland to string along your wall, then hang cards and ornaments. Fill a serving tray with shimmering balls and ornaments, and nestle a cake stand to the side for placing your keys and other items when you walk in the door. And a candy jar filled with bright mints is the perfect final touch.

Set the Table

Instead of featuring a floral centerpiece, consider transforming a large cloche hurricane lantern into a scented snow globe. Fill the base with fake snow and sparkling white-hued potpourri, which fills your space with amazing scents. Then finish with LED trees and star glimmer lights. You'll have a stunning display for enjoying during holiday dinners.

Create a Cozy Mantel

The living room is where most of your downtime is spent, so finding the right comfortable mix of decor is a must. Arrange a mantel that showcases your favorite photos alongside a faux-fur garland, which is the cutest spot for nestling in some woodland creature ornaments. Center the space with sparkling trees and a few friendly birds. It's the perfect mix of personal items alongside holiday decor that sets the tone for the season.
