Natural Christmas Decor | Christmas Mantel | Dried Oranges | Paper Star
Would you like to save money on Christmas Decor and take a more natural approach to Christmas Decorating this year? I am sharing some simple, yet beautiful ways to decorate not only for Christmas but also for winter.
I will show you how to make easy paper stars from lunch bags, how to make your own evergreen or eucalyptus mantel wreath, how to dry oranges and other citrus fruits to string together or use in a wreath, a simmer pot idea and lots of other small ways to change the whole environment of your home for Christmas.
My hope is that this decorating approach will melt the stress away, keep the focus on Jesus and help you unplug from the crazy marketing, and keep Christmas decorating simple.
Sending love your way mama,
Lana

    A trick with a bra is so true! I found it helpful to get dressed, wash and moisturize my face, brush my teeth and hair (make some ponytail). Yes, starting dinner after breakfast is so helpful! Going outside is great too - currently I'm struggling to convince my toddler to go outside. Thank you!

    I am here to say, this video is an energy giver. Thank you for including God in this video too as His influence is most important. The triple threat is real and made me smile to hear it. I had just gotten into watching a few videos on "easy" meal prep for moms and felt so defeated because so many videos on youtube around groceries and food are professional and actually require a lot of money, time, and preparation. Your video has turned my day around. May God bless you!

I love that it is budget friendly and doesn't cost much. This gave me great ideas to use in my home.

I'm an FTM, and there is no family, no help. Just me and my husband...it's been so hard..... the last month was the hardest (sleep deprivation), not easy to find new ways, systems, and adapting with it all.....

      you'll need to get creative about creating distance in the relationship. My mother-in-law is one of these and once I feel our interaction going south, I have a few non-negotiabkles that I use to get away from her. For example, I'll say "oh no! there's a poop mess love you bye" or I'll say "I just remembered some calls I need to make before it gets too late" Figure out what they won't question you about and keep it positive.

    SHOES- yes!! I’ve been doing this for years! Sometimes old shoes that I wash, most recently I got a pair of $10 fake converses. Wearing a bra- yes!! Baby carrier- I usually forget I have one but yeah it’s very helpful for when I’m busy but don’t want to feel like I’m neglecting the baby Timers- yes!! Never tried making dinner in the morning but it makes sense to prep that while I’m already in the kitchen. The biggest challenge for me is getting outside with my kids. Ever since I had more than 1-2 kids I tend to get stressed about taking them out. Gotta work on that

    I do the triple threat but in a different way. I put my hair up, put my shoes on and make sure I have a moment alone in the early morning to eat. I’m not a morning person and it took some work to get to but getting my hair out of my face just helped me feel like I mean business and that I’m telling myself, “let’s do this!” Same reason for the shoes and then eating before I start my kids’ breakfasts so I’m not yelling at them or- at the very least- being annoyed by how they’re feeling that morning is really helpful. If I don’t get to these things, I’m moody and cranky and just not a joy to be around 😅 lol
