Raid the Pantry
Here’s an unconventional material for you: food. Think outside the box by going into the pantry for your holiday decor.
A vase filled with Red Delicious apples and limes is a gorgeous holiday table centerpiece (and can be turned into Sangria later). Similarly, red and green candies are cheap. Set them out in a bowl or tin and instantly make the room feel more festive.
Have some bags of popcorn? Well, good news, you now have a Christmas decoration. Make an old-time popcorn garland for your tree with just popped popcorn, a needle and thread. You can even alternate with cranberries if you want to add a little color.
