Love this photo. See how just a red throw and a pillow gives it a holiday feel?(aside from the snow)

You can always just go with a tree. Because there are no other holiday decorations around, the tree is all the more noticeable, and really takes center stage.
A red flower arrangement or poinsettia can make a big impact on your dining room table. Keep the other table linens white to really make the red pop.2 images above via Lonny Mag
Okay, so I know this adorable little shed is all decked-out, but I used it to impact the instant coziness that warm light gives off. Candle light and incandescent lighting from table lamps and sconces, not overhead lighting, give off a warm glow. I know that incandescent lights are not the most energy efficient option - so check out compact fluorescents (CFLs), which give off a light more similar to incandescents than traditional fluorescents, but still give you energy savings.via Pinterest
Candle light makes the table festive, even without green garlands and red bows.via Rue Magazine
Simple pops of red turn an everyday room into a holiday decorated room. A throw, a table runner, a lampshade, or a throw pillow are all accents that can be swapped in on the holidays. 2 images above via Casa Diez
I thought this idea was cute and easy. Take some glass vessels with a wide opening - a large jar, a hurricane, a glass bowl, and fill them with a simple strand of lights (craft stores sell plain strings of lights super cheap), and cluster them together in an arrangement on the table, mantle, or a sideboard. via Country Living
What do you do to decorate for Christmas or the holiday you celebrate? Do you procrastinate or go all out once Thanksgiving has come and gone?
