  • Candles for the Holidays - Candles have been a part of our lives for thousands of years. Although candles started as a necessary part of every day life, we now use them as decoration, to soothe our busy lives, to create a romantic atmosphere and to fill our homes with warmth.
  • Country Christmas Decorating - Add a little country charm to your Christmas decorating this year. Forego the glitz and glam for natural materials, check fabrics and homemade country style. The beauty of this type of decorating is that it doesn't have to look perfect. The odd crooked stitch or slightly askew angel wing just shows that it is homemade and adds to the charm. Lots of these projects are perfect for children to help with too.
  • Country Elegance Holiday Wreath - The holidays are just around the corner and you aren't looking forward to fighting the crowds at the mall for just a few decorations. Then dig out your fabric scraps and a grapevine wreath and you are on your way to country elegance. Easy instructions and photo included with this craft.
  • Crystal Reflections Vase - This beautiful vase will wow your guests this holiday season. Display anywhere it will get the most attention! This is especially stunning with all the lights in the house off.
  • Decoupage Rose Votives - These elegant votive candles are very easy to make and look so beautiful on your table. These will make a pretty but simple centerpiece on your holiday table this year.
  • Dinnerware - If you looked at your holiday table and wondered how you'd manage to match the blue-rimmed plates you got in college with the white basket-weave plates you received as a wedding gift, it may be time to take in consideration the importance of dinnerware in your decorating plans.
  • Elegant Bows for Easy Holiday Decor - Holiday decorating is easier than you think. By using bows, fashioned from inexpensive ribbons, your house, whether inside or out, can be festive and inviting! With a simple shoelace bow and a little maneuvering, you too can add these lovely elegant touches to your home's decor. PHOTOS.
  • Evergreen Centerpiece - With this pretty evergreen centerpiece on your table this year, guests will think you bought it from a florist! Make a couple to display, one for dinner and one for the living room.
  • Festive Touches for Your Holiday Table - You'll be slaving over a hot stove for hours, preparing a feast fit for kings this Christmas. Why not add some festive touches to the table as well, and make the presentation as breathtaking as the dishes you'll be serving?
  • Flower & Spice Table Toppers - Use minimal supplies to make these pretty and festive holiday centerpieces for your Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner table. Make several and give a few as gifts.
  • Glittery Cinnamon Pinecones - Here's a kid-friendly craft to add some sparkle to your table this year. To top it off, you will enjoy the warm, inviting scent of cinnamon wafting through your home. A basket of these would make great teacher's gift too!
  • Holiday Decorating with Safety in Mind - Do you wonder how you're going to safely decorate for the upcoming holidays with preschoolers in your home? Here are some kid-friendly ideas to help you create a festive home during this special season.
  • Holiday Wall Hanging - This wall hanging makes a great decoration for the holidays. Be sure to get started soon for this fun and festive project.
  • Ice Candle Centerpiece - What a beautiful centerpiece. Your friends will be amazed at your craftiness and the compliments will keep coming as the night goes on. Be sure to make this a day or so ahead!
  • Make Your Own Holiday Cloth Napkins - The holidays are fast approaching and it's that time of year to plan for the festivities. If you are the host of this year's feast, why not make your own holiday cloth napkins? They are easy to make and quite beautiful sitting next to your good China.
  • Outside Country Touches - Decorating for Christmas doesn't have to be complicated or expensive. The simple touches are often the most elegant and the ones that receive the most comments. Here are some decorating ideas for outside your home which will help your family and your neighbors stay in the Christmas Spirit throughout the hustle and bustle of the holidays. PHOTOS.
  • Quick Tips for Holiday Entertaining - The extra commitments and responsibilities brought on by the winter holidays can make the most organized person frantic. Then, there's what seems like the never-ending expense of holiday giving to add more stress. And add in holiday entertaining to the jam-packed schedule and who wouldn't be ready to skip Christmas. However, mix in a dash of preplanning and a pinch of preparation to create a gathering you can easily host and enjoy, too.
  • Rosemary Christmas Trees - I love to grow things, and I especially love to have plants around the house in the winter. I really love rosemary plants and those cute little "rosemary Christmas trees," but the problem is that I always manage to kill them!
  • Salt Dough Christmas Trees - If you are looking for a fun project that doubles as a really cute decoration, try your hand at these salt dough Christmas trees. Easy to make, fun to decorate, and so many different possibilities!
  • The Care and Feeding of Christmas Trees - The Christmas tree is often the focal point of holiday decorating, and can be the source of many a happy holiday tradition, such as decorating parties or ornament collecting. But every tree trimmer's nightmare is the tree that immediately loses all its needles and becomes drier than the Nevada dessert in a mere matter of days.
  • Yuletide Centerpiece - This beautiful and rustic centerpiece will make a wonderful addition to your holiday table this year. If you have country decor, this one is for you!
  • Yuletide Garland - This lovely yuletide garland is the perfect holder for a sparkling bowl of holiday punch. Place in the center of your holiday table this year.
