It's no secret that I love decorating for holidays.
Today I'm sharing my top holiday decorating tips!
1. use what you have on hand
I've had these styrofoam hearts for a while.
I invested about $3 (big spender) at the dollar store quite a few years ago,
and have been using them in different ways each year.

2. use what you have in different ways
On top of the hutch, I used one of my vintage chalkboards,
along with a vintage chicken feeder filled with Styrofoam hearts.
In this vignette, I didn't buy anything new.
OK, I guess I did fill the jars with 2 bags of conversation hearts
that I bought from the dollar store.
For other jar fillers, I used
red glitter Styrofoam hearts
(from Hobby Lobby years ago)
and red, silver and white glitter balls from my Christmas decor.

3. use free printables or make your own
I found the darling cassette printable for free here.

I put it on a clipboard for my mantel.
I also used a mini light box.
I used a blank insert to write my own message.

4. if you do buy, buy it on sale or even clearance for the next year
On my mantel, I used a laser cut wooden heart that I bought for 1/2 off at Joann.
It cost a whopping $2.
I also punched hearts from cardstock
and stitched them together on my sewing machine.
