In the mood for unconventional decorating? We'll show you how to dress up other spots around your home.
Deck the Drawers
If you don't have a mantel, why buy stockings? To identify recipients, mark apples with initials and tie them to the drawer
handles with ribbon. For an easy alternative, use a chest of drawers and fill it with wrapped gifts.
Cozy Bedroom
Transition a ledge or molding into a makeshift mantel by simply adding garland and decorative accents.
Reindeer Games
Take a note from this modern decorating idea: Tasteful amounts of silk ribbon and ornaments can transform any regular household
accent into an example of holiday cheer.
Top Shelf
A simple photo ledge or shelf can easily double as a makeshift mantel. Instead of traditional stockings, use metal pails hung
with ribbon. Fill each bucket to the top with goodies.
Spread the Cheer
Decorating this large chalkboard with a garland extends the mantel motif through the home, even into the kitchen.
