This #BigHoliday post is sponsored by Big Lots in celebration of National Decorate Your Home for the Holidays Week.
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! Everywhere we go! Well, at least here in the Riley home. National Decorate Your Home For The Holidays Week is November 16th – 22nd, and we’re busy as Santa’s elves getting our home ready for the Christmas season. I’m not the most crafty pixie in the bunch, but something about the holidays makes me want to pull out my glue gun and make all the things! I have a few simple DIY projects in the works thanks to inspiration from Big Lots, and I’ll share them all during my room reveal next week. Until then, I wanted to share this easy holiday centerpiece that you can make in just 5 minutes!
The first thing you need is a tray. My husband has had this lovely wooden tray since before we were married, and I’ve been looking for a way to put in to use since we moved in together. It fits in perfectly with our country glamour holiday theme. We want sequins and burlap. Rustic glitter. Outdoor glitz. You get the picture! Next, I added textured shatterproof ornaments from Big Lots. They have a gazillion different colors and sizes for really great prices. The pack of 12 medium red bulbs I purchase and 32 gold bulbs were only $4 each. I also picked up a poinsettia wrapped in burlap, along with the sparkly reindeer I shared with you all last week. Finally, I added a candle holder that we already had, and 5 minutes later, voila! Done!
The biggest thing to keep in mind when you put together your centerpiece is to consider levels and textures. You want your centerpiece to be interesting enough to pull the entire room together. Terrence, Ayva and I have been doing a lot of decorating over the last week, and I can’t wait until you all get a chance to see our Holly Jolly home transformation!

Nice! This looks so elegant yet simple enough for me to accomplish at my house!
Thank you, Heather! I’m not the most crafty lady, but I felt accomplished after doing this!
This is adorable and so easy! We always forget to decorate our coffee table, and this would be perfect.
Thank you, Amiyrah! We usually leave ours plain, too. This year…going all out!
You have me ready to decorate my house! This is so festive and easy. I love it!
Do it! Next week is National Decorate Your Home for the Holidays Week, so you’ll be right on time!
I love this! We never had Big Lots where I grew up but I tend to always hit them up now in Texas during the holidays – I love their decor items!
Girl, I have spent so much money in there on decor stuff! Next, I’m redecorating our bathroom!
I was just thinking where can I get a tree … I have to be super creative to get the house decorated and Big Lots sounds like its right in my budget. Thank you for sharing and I love the Glitter Reindeer!
