Holiday Decorating Ideas to Make Your Independence Home Shine

December 6, 2024

There’s nothing like celebrating your first holiday season in your brand-new home. If you’re new to Independence (or want to be) and looking for ways to decorate your home for the holidays, we have some recommendations! Here are a few of our favorite décor ideas for this special time of year: 

Classic Wreaths

You can’t go wrong with a classic wreath when dressing up your home for the holidays. In addition to adorning the door with some festive greenery, try bringing this trend indoors for a natural yet cheerful look. Interior designers and lifestyle bloggers recommend hanging a wreath above interior windows or cabinets for a woodland winter wonderland feel. 

Dress Up the Staircase

In two-story homes, the staircase is an excellent place for adding ornamentation. You can keep it simple with a cheery red ribbon or go whimsical with a wintry garland, ball ornaments, stockings, or twinkling lights. Need some inspiration? We love these ideas! 

Rustic Flair 

Independence has deep roots in Elizabeth’s agricultural history, so rustic touches will be at home here. If you’re looking for charming front porch décor options, check out some of these creations. A vintage wagon makes a beautiful candle holder for flameless candles, and boots filled with winter greenery are a fun, rustic play on a wreath. 

Deck the Ceiling

Forget decking the halls–hanging ornaments from the ceiling is even more fun! This idea is on-trend for any style or layout and easy to accomplish. You can hang the ornaments with clear fishing wire for a floating look. There are lots of tutorials for this project on TikTok
