Hanukkah is almost here. What better way to celebrate the festival of lights than to bring the brilliance and cheer into your home? Here are some great ways to decorate without breaking the bank:
Lights
Holiday string lights and lanterns are one of the easiest and most cheerful ways to bring a warm holiday glow to your home. There’s no shortage of options; blue lights, white lights, holiday themed light-up objects as well as lanterns featuring stars, dreidels, and menorahs in themed colors like blue and silver. Lights are so easy to incorporate into any look. Simply drape lights all over your home; as a center piece to your dining table, as a garland around a bathroom mirror or gathered in a large glass jar and set on a table. If you like to celebrate both Christmas and Hanukkah, you can decorate a tree in nothing but blue and silver ornaments and lights.
Ornaments
Christmas tree ornaments don’t need to exist for the tree only. The glitzy, shiny allure of ornaments lend well to any decorating opportunity. Grab some blue, silver and white themed ornaments and display them anywhere you need a little bit of glamour. A large glass jar filled with ornaments can act as a centerpiece to your dining table, an accent to side tables, around the bathroom on the vanity or shelving or even hanging from the guest bath shower curtain. Ornaments also look great on a mantelpiece or tied together as a wreath. Mix and match blues and silvers with various textures and sizes and you’ll have endless ways to add shine to your home.
Holiday Themed Decorative Pillows
Pillows are so easy to pull out in a pinch just when you need them. Grab a handful of decorative pillow covers and switch them out, just for the holidays or family gatherings, from your normal day to day pillow covers. A menorah light up pillow is a great way to bring in the spirit of the holiday, mixed and mingled with blue velvet, white faux fur, silver jacquard woven or other textured fabric decorative covers. Your seating area will be festive and inviting. When the holidays are over switch the pillow covers back to your day to day look in an instant.
Candles
You can never have enough candles. Blue, white and sliver themed candles can be placed around your home as focal points or accent decoration. Of course, the most important set of candles is on your Menorah. Grab your traditional menorah and make it the centerpiece of your décor or make your own menorah by organizing 9 individual candlesticks together in your own inspired way. Mix and match the colors of the candles to give the look some variety and pizzazz.
