Hi guys, I'm back with another article today! All about inspo on how to decorate your house for Christmas. Let's get right into it. I hope you enjoy!

--Nutcrakers:
The best thing about nutcrackers is that one: they are totally adorable and two: they have them in any color imaginable. Now this is a plus because you can get a nutcracker to match with any color theme your using from classic red and green to even pink! You can put them on your kitchen/dining room table as a centerpiece or even as a decoration for a small coffee table! No matter the placement or color they bring a lot of class to your holiday decorations.

-- Christmas Village:
Honestly this is my favorite part of decorating for Christmas. Making my own Christmas Village! All you need is some fake snow, some Christmas miniatures from your local craft store and a flat surface! You can go with as many or as little as you want. Think snowman, houses, mini trees and lampposts etc. It's like your own little Christmas town!

-- Christmas Trees:
I mean seriously what's better at Christmas time then shutting off all the lights, listening to Christmas music and just sitting by a Christmas tree that's all lit up with colorful, or white, lights! The best part about Christmas trees is that you can decorate them in so many ways. I actually prefer to have one main real tree and then several small artificial trees scattered around the house so no matter what room you go into it has a little bit of a Christmasy feel.

-- Candles:
I love candles! I have wayyy more than is necessary but I just love all the different scents because they put me in such a christmasy mood! You can use these as centerpieces on your kitchen table or take one and flank it with two mini sized Christmas Nutcrackers on either side (my favorite). You can even take a non-scented white candle and get a clear candle holder and some Christmas colored ribbon to use just as decoration. It's totally up to you!

--Reindeer:
I love decorating with Reindeers at Christmas! One because they are super cute an two because you can go either cutesy or classy depending on what your aesthetic is. You can even get one to act as a candle holder, and they make great accent pieces!

-- Presents:
Now these don't have to be ACTUAL presents. My favorite thing to do is take cardboard boxes and wrap them as presents and then place them on the stairs to give it the railing a Chritmasy feel. You can even place them at different places around your house!

-- Use a Theme:
So every year I like to stick to a theme for Christmas decorating, whether it be red and green, silver and gold, rose gold, or silver and blue or whatever other combo you like. I personally think a theme helps your decorations look more classy and less of a mishmash of things. But again it's totally up to you!!
