Simple Holiday Decorations

We just don't have a lot of space here in the cozy country cottage. Storage is at a minimum so I don't have a lot of holiday (other than Christmas) decorations that I keep from year to year. You saw my simple mantle decor...those pieces are easy to stack & store but one of my other favorite ways to decorate for the holidays & seasons is to use pieces that can stay out year round and just switch them up a bit.

I found two great tea light holders at Goodwill several months ago. I liked that the metal pieces on top were attached to where the tea light goes so you can easily light the candles then lower the "lid". Since they're glass I can add to them for each season.

For Fall...

After Thanksgiving I replaced the candy corn with red garland beads...and of course for the life of me can't figure out what I did with that pic but trust me...it was cute!

And now for Valentine's Day...

See how I tried to get a little more artsy with my photo skills?? My pic turned out a little darker than it should have but you get the idea and you can see the glow of the candles.

Think of all the little ways you can add some holiday decor to your little corners! I liked these little Goodwill finds from the start but now that I'm finding new ways to use them, I really LOVE them! You could do the same with simple vases or jars too!
