Tartan Plaid Pillows ** The decor in this apartment is normally very neutral, so the infusion of holiday color is probably the single most impactful thing we could do to spice it up for the holidays. The red tartan pillow below works really well with the neutrals and yet is a bold seasonal cue. ### **2. Faux Pine Garland** With no mantel or even a sideboard to drape a garland over, we used the window sill to display this beautiful snowy garland. It lights up for evening and when placed on the wrap around sill, it envelopes the room in wintery goodness. ### **3. Bowl of Orbs and Pine Cones** Perhaps the easiest Christmas decor trick ever, a bowl full of glittered ornaments and natural pine cones can be added to even the tiniest room. ### 4. Faux Fur Throw  Nothing says ‘cozy winter home’ quite like a faux fur throw. Who wouldn’t want to wrap up in one of these as the temperatures plunge, especially in an apartment without a fireplace? ### [[Click to read her other 8 easy holiday decorating ideas!]](https://designthusiasm.com/holiday-decorating-ideas-small-apartment/) Now that you have some ideas of simple, yet festive ways you can decorate your small apartment for the holidays it’s time to shop! ## Best Places to Purchase Holiday Décor Holiday décor shopping can be really fun, especially when you know what you’re looking for. ### Michaels & Hobby Lobby These two stores are great options when it comes grabbing what you need for your holiday décor.
