Zionsville Apartment Decorating Ideas For The Holidays

Never fear. There are a lot of festive and stylish ways to decorate your apartment this holiday season. No matter the size of your home’s layout, you can try these great Zionsville apartment decorating ideas for the holidays.

Replace Your Current Home Accessories With Holiday Ones

If you don't like having too many trinkets in your Zionsville apartment, try replacing your normal pieces with more festive alternatives. Swap out your welcome mat with a holiday one. Swap out throw blankets and pillows on the couch with holiday-themed ones. Stock the kitchen and bathroom with festive towels. Decorations don’t have to be just ornamental. They can be functional as well!

Stick With Zionsville Apartment Decorating Ideas That Don’t Require Lots of Storage Space

If you have limited closet space, set up decorations that you don’t need to store or use limited storage space.

Fresh greenery and Christmas trees only last one season before getting tossed out. The same happens with gingerbread houses. Another short-term decoration is simply putting out dishes of colorful candies to decorate with and snack on until they’re gone.

Not every seasonal decoration has to be large. Compact decorations that pack down tightly can make just as big an impact. Get sturdy ornaments to minimize the need for bubblewrap. Use flat wall hangings, foldable cardboard or fabric decorations, window static clings, and flexible garlands that are easy to fit into little containers after the holiday season.

Pick The Right-sized Christmas Tree

If you observe Christmas, you’ll probably get a Christmas tree. But those full branches can be too large for small apartments. Luckily, it’s easy to buy Christmas trees in a range of sizes.

When selecting a Christmas tree, be sure to get one that leaves enough space between the tree and the ceiling to put a star on your tree. As for girth, narrower, compact trees are better in smaller spaces.

If your layout is fairly tight, consider a tabletop tree or a novel half or corner tree. Half trees and corner trees stand against your wall or in a corner to save on floor space.

Be Creative with Placement

Apartments might not have the same architecture or amenities that single-family houses do. If you don’t have a spacious windowsill for your menorah or a brick fireplace for your Christmas stockings, it’s not a huge deal. You can place traditional decorations in nontraditional locations in your Zionsville apartment.

Menorahs are just as lovely on a console, entertainment center, or shelf. Stockings can hang from hooks on a wall, door handles, or shelves. Don’t have a public-facing living room window for the Christmas tree? Place it in a bedroom or office window instead.

Decorate Windows If You Don’t Have A Yard

Everyone loves seeing outdoor light displays, but you might not be able to set up your own outdoor lights when you live in a Zionsville apartment. When you don’t have a yard to decorate, the next best thing is to decorate your windows.

You can delight the neighbors with lights strung up or place green wreaths and warm candles in every window. Let the kids create a winter wonderland with paper snowflakes or set up popular holiday silhouettes peeking out. There’s a long history of staging store windows for the holidays, so why not add some flair your windows at home!
