The Greatest Seasonal Decorations Are Super Simple

Friday, September 17th, 2010

An often overlooked space to decorate is the back of dinning chairs. And because it is so rare for that area to be accentuated, it means that any seasonal indicator will really draw attention. Thus, you can keep things simple, and use very basic articles to decorate the backs of your seats, but that extra touch will get you many compliments for sure.

Gather some natural ornaments, such as acorns or small pine cones. Add glue and glitter at definitive spots and then attach them to extra large satin ribbons in fall shades. The difference in the items brought in from the out of doors will create a dramatic impact when the shimmery ribbon becomes its backdrop. Obviously, the way these decorations are tied on to the chairs will vary based upon the seats style. We recommend that you keep things as simple as possible, and tie in loops or large bows to keep all affixed.

However, you can continue the festivities at home by creating special valentines decorations and valentines mailboxes with you kids. These can be super fun projects, and the ideas available on the web are amazingly abundant.

Of all the ideas, my personal favourite is definitely the mailbox arts and crafts creations. All ages can be involved in transforming such common household items as paper plates, or old laundry detergent boxes into personalized boxes of sweetness.

Ribbon, doilies, construction paper, glitter, dried flowers, brown paper bags, or stickers make all the trimmings easy. Be sure to make one of these boxes for each family member, no matter what their age. They can be filled with small treats and notes of affection, both of which everyone can bond over.
