Pillows are an inexpensive way to add holiday cheer around your home. This beautiful Joy pillow can be used indoors or out, making it perfect for your front porch swing or even on your bed or sofa!

Cordless Glass Candles, Set of 6

I’m hooked on the convenience of battery candles. Candles in the windows add a very cozy look to your home during the holiday season. This battery operated 6-pack is available in gold or silver. The remote control makes it super easy to turn them on and off!

Snowflake Pillow Cover, Set of 2

Add some Christmas spirit to your sofa or bed with these beautiful pillow covers. Available in blue, red, gray and white to match any decor.

Small wooden signs like this add charm and personality to a space! I think this would look great on a fireplace, vanity counter or table.

Add a glamorous touch to your holiday decor with this three-piece illuminated Christmas tree set, which is beautiful by day and even more strikingly illuminated at night. They are battery powered and their built-in timers are genius.

Cheerful and Bright Mop

Welcome your guests into your home with this festive Merry & Bright Doormat. It comes in three variants for any front door.

Pompom Buffalo Checked Cushion Cover, Set of 2

I love the cute touch that pompoms add to these classic buffalo plaid pillowcases! There’s something about the holidays and buffalo plaid. They would look great with the snowflake pillows above. It’s also available in non-Christmas colors like yellow, grey, teal, and black.

Mailbox Loot

Make sure the outside of your home is also decorated with this beautiful pre-lit letterbox ornament. It’s made of real-feeling branch tips and runs on a timer so you don’t have to run out to turn it on and off. Honestly, timers are everything to me, not because I’m lazy, but because they make things effortless.

Poinsettia Holly Leaf Table Runner

This festive poinsettia table runner will add a beautiful touch to your Christmas dinner table display and is a great buy for under $9! Mine seems to get cranberry sauce poured on it every year so I always need a new one.

Printed Fabric Table Cloth for Christmas

Effortlessly decorate your festive dinner table with this tablecloth. Your grandchildren will love Santa and the reindeer appearing in your decor! Christmas will be so much fun with my grandson this year. I fear the year he no longer believes in Santa Claus.

6.5 ft. Front Lighted Artificial Full Christmas Tree

If you need a new Christmas tree, this is great! Featuring hundreds of individually crafted branch tips to create full-bodied branches, this tree is designed to look and feel realistic. This tree features pre-attached, hinged branches that drop down for a simple setup and fold back for quick and convenient storage. We finally got an artificial tree last year and we LOVE that they are not needles to sweep from the carpet.

Plus, there are a few more extras that are great to have on hand during the holiday season:

Wrap Buddies Desktop Gift Wrapping Tool

Save time and frustration in your gift wrapping efforts using Wrap Buddies. A pair of handy wrapping paper table clamps with a tape dispenser to keep all your supplies close at hand and give you the extra hand you need!

I like to use double-sided wrapping paper. The 6 prints on this reversible holiday wrapping paper pack are perfectly coordinated to make wrapping gifts quick and easy.

There’s nothing worse than running to the store on your way to a holiday gathering to pick up a gift bag. Having gift bags on hand makes the holiday season so much easier!

Merry Christmas Label Stickers

Make your packaging process easier by preparing your gift tags! This pack of 200 classic Christmas stickers pairs beautifully with the bags and wrapping paper above. I think the little reindeer touch is so cute!
