Aside from family heirlooms, I can’t justify spending a lot of money on decorations that you will only use for about 2 months out of the year. On top of that, our landfills are full of unnecessary non-biodegradable seasonal decorations. Check out these lovely DIY green holiday decorating ideas for tips and tricks on how to make your home look lovely this holiday season. (You can actually try this stuff year round!)
Wine Bottle Christmas
These upcycled wine bottles beauties are incredibly simple to create. Use Eco-friendly snow like this brand instead of the poly/plastic kind that won’t degrade.

Music Placemats
This great idea from Garden Home Party caught my eye because of how simple it is. One large book of sheet music can create a whimsical set of unique placemats. Spill something on them? Toss ’em! You’ve got more!
