Sustainable decorating ideas for the holiday season

So I’m obsessed with sustainable decorating ideas for everyday, and especially for the holidays.

There was a time when I thought that each design I created should last my lifetime. I seriously don’t know how I was ever that ‘wide-eyed.’

So now that I’ve ‘matured’ into knowing that’s just not realistic, I’m beyond happy to discover sustainable decorating ideas that use natural elements that either are knowingly temporary (like using leaves, flowers, twigs, food, etc.) or can have a second life as something else around my home and in my family’s life.

We’re talking about all-things natural this week on our radio show, and I can’t wait to get inspired from some of our favorite sustainable home experts. I’ve been looking around on Pinterest for more ideas to create sustainable decorating ideas for this holiday season, and here are a few of my favorites.
