Christmas Decor Ideas - easy & inexpensive
Christmas kinda sneaks up on me every year. I am thinking about all the wreaths & other Christmas decor I will make...
It is mid November - then it is not.
Then it is December 23rd!!
I always have more plans & projects in mind than those that get done, but that's part of the fun…and there is, god willing, always next year.
Simple projects are best this time of year, unless you start your Christmas "to dos" in June!
There is just so much going on that having a stock pile of simple inspiration & ideas on hand is essential. Not too complicated, not too expensive & pretty are the qualities I look for in a Christmas decor project.
To provide you with a resource of inspirational, easy & even inexpensive Christmas decor ideas, I got together with some of my bHome blogger friends to share a few of our favorite Christmas decor ideas and tutorials.

Who doesn't love a grain sack?
That nubby gorgeous fabric goes with almost every style of decor! Authentic, homespun and timeless - grain sacks and Christmas go together naturally.
Using grain sacks in you Christmas decor can be as easy as a pile stacked with the red & green stripes revealed, a red striped sack draped over a chair or one wrapped around the base of your tree.
If you have a bit of time, sewing grain sack Christmas stockings is wonderful way to create family heirlooms. Learn about grain sacks, how to care for them and more ideas on using them in your Christmas decor from me here at My Soulful Home.
If you don't have a vintage grain sack, you can make your own!
Julie shows us how to make simple little grain sack ornaments. These little stockings add a vintage flair to your tree without breaking the bank or a branch. They're inexpensive to make & so light-weight (perfect for real trees).
Get the tutorial from Lilacs & Longhorns here.
