I saw this bell wreath selling for $229… so obviously I had to try making my own 😅

And I’m happy to report: this one came together for under $20 and looks just as festive.

Here’s exactly how I made it 👇

• I started with a simple wire wreath form
• Found metal bells at Dollar Tree, I couldn’t find enough gold so I spray painted silver ones.
• I tested hot glue and super glue first, but neither held up well on the wire form
• Zip ties were the real MVP – they let me pull each bell tight so nothing shifts
• I also tried floral wire, but I couldn’t get the bells secure enough
• Once all the bells were attached, I trimmed the zip ties and added the cutest velvet bow.

That’s it. Simple, sturdy, and way more budget-friendly than the $229 version.

If you’re decorating on a budget but still want that classic, cozy holiday look, this one is a win.

Decorate the porch with me! I wanted a simple but magical red and white peppermint theme this year, and it all came together with a mix of Walmart basics, Dollar Tree finds, and a few things I already had on hand.

I started with two strands of the 25-ft pre-lit rope garland from Walmart to wrap around the doorframe. Using two gives you a slightly fuller look and creates a sturdy base for any lighter tinsel decorations. Across the top, I added a pre-lit garland from my holiday stash for extra glow.

Dollar Tree came through with the cutest red and white tinsel pieces—candy canes, ornaments, and those little nutcrackers that were not $1.25 (they were $7 each), but they matched my Home Depot wreath perfectly, so I couldn’t resist. I used small cable ties to secure everything evenly around the garland.

To finish the look, I flanked the doorway with two small pre-lit trees and added any red and white ornaments I could find from our collection. For the layered rug moment, I kept the black and white base rug we already owned, added a smaller red and green plaid rug from Target, and topped it with my SwitchMat and a Merry Christmas insert.

It looks so cute day or night, and it turned out almost exactly how I pictured it.

If you’re short on space or working with a tiny budget this year, this wall-mounted Christmas tree is the easiest festive project you can make. 

I did the entire thing with Dollar Tree supplies, and it turned out so pretty. It’s also perfect for playrooms, small apartments, or toddler-proof decorating since nothing is within reach.

Here’s how I made it:

What you need
• Tinsel garland (I used 4–6 strands depending on size)
• Battery operated lights
• Small ornaments and ribbon
• Mini command hooks
• Optional: a bow or tree topper

How to make it
	1.	Map out your tree shape on the wall first. I started with a center point and worked downward.
	2.	Place mini command hooks in a zig-zag pattern to outline the tree. These will anchor your garland and keep the shape clean.
	3.	Hook your tinsel garland onto each command hook, forming the outline of the tree.
	4.	Layer on battery-operated lights. I tucked the battery packs behind the garland for easy hiding and access.
	5.	Add your ornaments, ribbons, and any small accents. Keep them lightweight so they adhere well to the wall.
	6.	Finish with a bow or mini topper at the top.

Such a fun, affordable project and a great solution when you want a magical tree without taking up floor space. I’ll link similar supplies in LTK so you can recreate the look.

Decorate the porch with me! I love a good before and after, especially when it’s done on a budget. 

Most of this look came together with Dollar Tree finds, a few Walmart staples, and some simple DIY touches to make it feel magical using ornaments, garland, and little trees we already had.

#ad Officially obsessed with the goal of having a Christmas tree in every room over here. 

Added this gorgeous 7.5 foot pre lit tree from Best Choice Products to our bedroom and I love how warm and cozy it feels. 

If you prefer the warm twinkle light look over bright white LEDs, this tree is beautiful. 

The branches look so realistic, it’s really full especially at the bottom, and it was easy to assemble and fluff. 

I went with a blue ornament theme to match the room and paired it with the slatted wood tree collar for that designer look without the designer price. Such a great value for the quality.

And yes we put our pet gerbils on our first Christmas card…don’t worry about it. 😆🤭

A new favorite mantle idea that costs almost nothing.

I used $1.25 ribbon from Dollar Tree, punched a small hole in the corner of each Christmas card, and tied them onto a simple garland I already had. That’s it. And somehow… it might be my favorite holiday DIY this year.

It instantly makes your garland look fuller, more personal, and so cozy.

Use whatever you have:
• old family Christmas cards
• Santa photos
• kids’ holiday artwork
• or even the new cards that come in throughout December

I love being able to see all 14 years of our Christmas cards in one place. It’s such an easy tradition to keep, and it makes the whole room feel extra magical without spending money.

Comment CARDS and I’ll send you the link to the Christmas cards we love.

One of our favorite Christmas Eve traditions you can recreate with whatever you already have at home.

We set up a little DIY station and the kids make a simple little batch of “reindeer food” using oatmeal, holiday sprinkles, and a little glitter for extra sparkle on the lawn.

Set up a station with some baggies and let the kids scoop, mix, and label their own bags. It’s easy, festive, and such a sweet memory to repeat every year.

Save this for later if you want to add a little magic to your Christmas Eve!
