Want to decorate your house without breaking the bank?

 My favourite tip for decorating ready for christmas is finding the most cost efficient way to making your house look super christmassy! 

A good idea for this is wrapping paper, you can find wrapping paper with every single design, pattern and texture you could possibly dream of! Another bonus is, its relatively cheap and you most likely will have left overs from your presents anyway! AND it can be cut into absolutely anything you want! 

Although my cutting skills are not the best you can clearly see the effect I am going for!

Other ideas could include..

• Making shapes or festive sayings out of the paper too! 

 

Using either wrapping paper or prints from online and then using templates (or free handing it!) 

This is a great way to make a wall look super festive! 

• using the same wrapping paper or a mixture of both, you could make paper chains! 

Instead of using simple paper, making strips out of colourful christmas paper and sticking together with glue and VOILA! These can jazz up your stairs, handles, anywhere! 

So I hope these tips might give you some inspiration, especially as I just managed to get my hands on a 3 for 2 deal of wrapping paper each 15metres! 

Merry Christmas!
