Best Christmas Decor Advice

My mom has given me some great advice over the years. By great I mean, the words that made me who I am today and so much more. Then while we were out Christmas tree shopping, she happened to text me saying how I should ask the workers at Lowe's for extra trimmings. 

Say what? They do that? Obviously I am clueless and not so crafty so I had no idea! 

When I asked they said of course and even netted the extra trimmings up for us to easily carry out. 

So far with my extras, I have made these... 

A garland piece for my front door. Which just so happened did not work out but it actually turned our fabulous! 

Since I decided that to not have my Christmas Cookie exchange since Curtis has been working so much I have not decorated as I wanted. But still I am very happy with the decor throughout our home. One day soon I will add in photos of all of the decor. Just remember, the best budget saver there is at Christmas time is picking up these extra trimmings to decorate with!
