Noblesville Apartment Decorating Ideas For The Holidays

November 24, 2020

Holiday decorations

You might have noticed that many holiday inspiration Instagrams showcase large houses and oversized decorations. So how can you achieve the same holiday spirit in a Noblesville apartment?

Never fear. There are endless cheery and beautiful ways to decorate your apartment this winter. No matter the size of your home’s layout, you can try these great Noblesville apartment decorating ideas for the holidays.

Upgrade Your Everyday Home Knickknacks With Festive Ones

If you don't have room for too many trinkets in your Noblesville apartment, try swapping out your normal accessories with more festive ones. Swap out your welcome mat with a holiday one. Replace blankets and throw pillows with holiday-themed ones. Add festive towels to your kitchen and bathroom. Decorations don’t need to be purely aesthetic. They can be functional, too!

Use Noblesville Apartment Decorating Ideas That Don’t Require Storage

If you have limited storage, set up decorations that don’t require storage or use a small amount of storage space.

Fresh greenery and Christmas trees only last a few weeks before getting discarded. The same goes for gingerbread houses. Another short-term decoration is just setting out dishes of festive candies to brighten up the space and snack on until they’re gone.

Not every seasonal decoration needs to be large. Little decorations that are easy to store can still give off a “wow” factor. Get ornaments that won’t break to save space on the need for bubblewrap. Use wall hangings, foldable cardboard or fabric decorations, window static clings, and flexible garlands that easily fit into compact containers after the holiday season.

Choose A Christmas Tree That Works For Your Space

If you observe Christmas, having a Christmas tree is part of the fun. However, those long branches can overwhelm small apartments. Thankfully, today you can buy Christmas trees in different sizes.

When selecting a Christmas tree, be sure to pick one that fits your space and leaves room for your tree topper. As for width, slender, shorter trees are better in smaller places.

If you don’t have a lot of floor space, consider a 2-3’ tree or a novel half or corner topiary. Half trees and corner trees fit against your wall or are placed in a corner to save space.

Get Creative with Placement

Apartments may not have the same architecture or amenities as single-family houses. If you don’t have a wide windowsill for your menorah or a standard fireplace for your Christmas stockings, it’s not a huge deal. You can put standard holiday decorations in new places when you live in a Noblesville apartment.

Menorahs are just as lovely on a table, entertainment center, or bookshelf. Christmas stockings can hang from coathooks, door handles, or shelves. Don’t have a front-facing living room window for the Christmas tree? Put it in a bedroom window instead.

Decorate Windows Instead Of Your Yard

People love walking by outdoor holiday lights, but you might not have the option to display your own when you’re in a Noblesville apartment. If you don’t have a yard to decorate, instead you can add lights to your windows.

You can delight the neighbors with strands of lights or place traditional wreaths and warm candles in every window. Have the kids have fun building a paper snowflakes chain or set up cute holiday silhouettes peeking out. Stores have been dressing their windows for decades, so why not spruce up your windows at home!
