Christmas is a holiday that we have all loved since we were little children. As we grow older, we find that there are more and more stressful things about Christmas that we weren't used to before. These stressful things, such as planning for gifts and decorating, can take some of the fun out of celebrating the holiday season. Luckily, we have some quick and easy ways to take the stress out of your holiday decorating.

Green Tinsel For Fuller Tree

Noticing some gaps in your perfect Christmas tree? No need to return it, just get some green tinsel! Wrap it in the sparse spots and you’re tree will look much fuller.

Ornament Cartons

Most ornaments are fragile, which can make storing them a hassle. Instead of trying to force them all into a box, you can just use an egg carton to easily store some of your ornaments.

Gingerbread Ornaments

Want some super easy, cute, and creative ornaments? Just apply three coats of varnish to some gingerbread cookies. They instantly become the perfect ornaments.

Foiled

You know those long aluminum foil boxes? They actually make perfect boxes for cookies. Decorate them to give them a festive flair.

Soft Serve

Ice cream is the best for Christmas. And it can be soft serve whenever you want. Just put your ice cream box in a zip lock bag to stop it from getting freezer burn.

Recycle Your Pumpkins

Instead of putting away the pumpkins you were using for Halloween, keep them around for Christmas! You can paint them white and turn them into some adorable snowmen.

Elf Donuts

Elf donuts are a super cute gag gift idea. All you need is some Cheerios and frosting.

Candy Cane Powder

Everyone loves candy canes during the holiday season, and you can get that taste in so many more things by blending the canes up into a powder. This powder can be put on hot chocolate, frosting, cookies, just about anything.

Tree-mendous Table Decoration

If you cut off some small branches of your Christmas tree you can use them as decoration. You will be able to put them in a small glass of water and have them as a decoration. It looks very festive.

Candy Cane Place Card Holder

Take two candy canes. Glue them together. You now have a very easy and festive place card holder.

Christmas Lights

Find some fun ornaments. Find a light fixture. Hang these ornaments from this light fixture for a holiday treat.

Present Handle

A fun way to spruce up presents is to add a handle. This can be done with some rope and tape. This makes it easier to transfer your presents as well.

Burlap Garland

Burlap garland can really help your Christmas tree look much more festive with a unique touch. This is a great way to spruce up your tree.

Fudgy Christmas

Everyone loves fudge. Everyone loves Christmas fudge even more. Use festive cookie cutters to create some holiday Christmas fudge.

Rice Krispmas Treat

Rice Krispie treats are a great treat all year round. For a festive holiday treat, you can add green food coloring. Cut them into the shape of trees and you now have a fun holiday treat.

Crock Pot Hot Chocolate

Your crock pot is your best friend during the holiday season. It can help you serve all of your guests. Hot chocolate in your crock pot is a great way to get the party started.

Trashy Wrapping Paper

Keeping your wrapping paper orderly can be difficult. Don’t throw the paper out, but you should use a trash can to neatly store your wrapping paper.

Double Sided Wrapping

When you want to make your wrapping jobs look professional, use double sided tape. Your friends and family will think you paid someone to do it.

Hang The Paper

Some curtain rings are all you need to easily hang your wrapping paper. If you would rather use this method than the trash can, then go for it!
