(A 10-foot-tall Frasier fir probably isn&#39;t well-suited to an apartment, anyway.) Even a small grouping of poinsettias can add some festive flair to a space.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Repurpose and reuse.<\/strong> Before heading out to the store, take inventory of holiday decorations that you already own. Have a bunch of glass ball ornaments? Put them to good use by displaying them in a simple clear glass bowl or upon a pretty platter. Have a few oranges in the fridge? Consider transforming them into a spicy stovetop potpourri. Even old mason jars are up to the task of holding a few sprigs of holly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Go au naturel<\/strong>. Pine cones, evergreen sprigs, cranberries, pomegranates, walnuts, and other organic objects can make excellent decorations, especially for those with an eye for the rustic-chic aesthetic. Scoop some up during your next hike or stroll down the produce aisle at the supermarket.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.midwestliving.com\/homes\/seasonal-decorating\/quick-easy-holiday-decor\/\" target=\"_blank\">50 Quick and Easy Holiday Decorating Ideas<\/a> [Midwest Living]<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rd.com\/home\/decorating\/cheap-christmas-decorations\/\" target=\"_blank\">24 Cheap Christmas Decorations You Can Make Yourself<\/a> [Reader&#39;s Digest]<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.realsimple.com\/holidays-entertaining\/holidays\/christmas\/christmas-tree-decorating-ideas\/tight-budget\" target=\"_blank\">Festive Christmas Tree Decorating Ideas<\/a> [Real Simple]<\/p>\n<div class=\"pophld\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/respage-upload.s3.amazonaws.com\/img\/15122215552_1dbec87669_z_640.jpg\" style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; height: 427px; width: 640px;\" title=\"ProFlowers\" \/><\/p>\n<div style=\"margin:0;padding:0;clear:both;\"><em><a href=\"http:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/2.0\/\" target=\"_blank\">CC-BY-2.0<\/a>\/<a href=\"http:\/\/www.proflowers.com\" target=\"_blank\">ProFlowers<\/a><\/em><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Between wish lists and holiday parties, the most wonderful season of all can blow by like a whirlwind.
