This year has been a tough and challenging one but we surely don’t want to miss celebrating the Yuletide season. After all, it's one of the most widely celebrated holidays across the globe. While Christmas is associated with grand celebrations, there are smart ways to celebrate this holiday season by spending within our means.

With barely 4 months to prepare, we highly suggest starting working on decorating your place so that it gives off a Christmas vibe. We have run down four things you can add to your place so your homes will be Yuletide ready in no time! And just a hint, some of these can be found in your homes so no need to splurge.

Curtains
Who would have thought that a piece of cloth can make a huge difference when it comes to the overall look of your home? Curtains are an essential part of every room. But if you are creative enough, you can make use of them beyond your windows! Use Christmas themed curtains as a backdrop to add some colors to plain walls or even use it as a stylish divider to separate the living room from your kitchen. Make use of your old Red, White or Gold curtains and unleash your creativity by painting it with anything related to Christmas or you can also use fabric patches.

Christmas Ornaments
What is Christmas without a snowman, Christmas balls, candy canes, and other decorations associate with this special celebration? These come in different forms but classic decors are Christmas trees, wreath and, the iconic Santa Claus. Bring out your old Christmas decors and start cleaning and re-use them.

Lights
As early as September, we can see places from around the globe are wrapped in different lights! Most of these come with Christmas music which creates a Yuletide vibe. And for this coming Christmas, we opt to design our places with marquee lights instead of the usual lights.

Decorate your home with a Christmas ornament marquee light and let your guests feel the spirit of Christmas!

Add some Christmas candy cane marquee light for a funkier look and instantly bring out the child in you.

Music
After you have decorated your space, now it’s time to go beyond the looks. Create your Christmas playlist and hit the play button! Music sets the mood to any occasion without spending a single cent. And because most Christmas songs are lively, it also makes people more energetic and happier.
