A Festive Mantel
A wreath in the shape of a star, bright and cheery presents, and country-style stockings create the perfect Christmas scene.
Vintage Hankies Tree
Use pushpins to secure green handkerchiefs (and a brown hankie “stump”) to the wall or a bulletin board for a nothing-to-sniff-at display.
A Very Merry Advent Calendar
Hung inside an old hotel key cabinet, numbered gift tags adorned with tiny ornaments make for a homespun Christmas countdown.
Tomato Cage Tree
Turn the gardening apparatus upside down, place it in a galvanized bucket, and sprinkle liberally with Shiny Brites or, fittingly, tomato- red ornaments.
Cookie and Candy Tins
Stack tins from largest to smallest, then wrap with a garland made of bakers’ twine and candy (here, Life Savers).
Hang a Country Stocking
Add country flair to your mantel with stockings in designs of a seed sack, gingham, ticking stripes, or a grain sack.
Welcome Gifts
Sweeten a garland with welcome gifts. Offer treats to overnight guests as they head up to their temporary digs by hanging coffee mugs filled with candy and hot cocoa mix on the banister garland.
Light Up A Room With Color
Brighten a room with colorful bulbs. Even unplugged lights shine when gathered in a glass apothecary jar. For a container that truly glistens, top it off with a dusting of artificial snow.
Rosemary Trees
Trimmed to resemble conifers, aromatic rosemary plants can be given away, addressed with copper plant labels (available at florists) and tied with a ribbon. Or enjoy displayed on a buffet or sideboard.
Overhead Sash
An evergreen sash neatly hung and draped above a headboard adds a polished, festive look to any bedroom. For another burst of color, change out your sheets for a holiday-hued plaid pattern.
