Sprinkle Some Fresh Greenery
Designer, artist and author of The New York Times best-selling book The New Bohemians, Justina Blakeney recommends displaying fresh greenery, like eucalyptus or potted plants from the garden, throughout the house as part of your holiday decorations. “If you are looking for more festive plants, you can bring in a poinsettia or Christmas cactus. And if you’re busy prepping a holiday meal and have a sink full of dishes, having a pull down feature on your kitchen faucet is a great way to water the plants and fill your vases in a pinch. Just place them on the counter and give them a little drink!” P.S. Christmas is officially on its way! Get our holiday handbook full of great holiday tips and ideas.

Add Cozy Features to the Guest Bedroom
“If you’re expecting overnight guests over the holidays, you can freshen up your guest bedroom and bathroom,” says Blakeney. “Start with the bedding and pillows in your guest bedroom. Layering in pillows with warm colors, soft textures and bedding that is super cozy will make your guests feel right at home!” We also love this flannel fleece throw blanket you can drape over the edge of the bed.
