If you’re the type who’s always looking for a little extra seasonal detail for Christmas (that doesn’t cost an arm or a leg) here’s one way to do it.
Just by adding a touch of Christmas to the back of your chairs you’ve added an extra layer of detail and charm. I know you’ve seen small Christmas wreaths added to the backs of chairs and that’s always fun, but here’s another idea if you want something just a little different.
I purchased these small wicker baskets a few years ago from Hobby Lobby so I don’t have a link, but I’m sure you could find something similar.
These were not expensive and they were a good size for my chairs. Of course they can be used for other seasons or occasions as well which is a bonus.
They’re just a simple style – nothing fancy – but I love the texture and look of the natural wicker with my soft more formal looking ivory chairs.
I tied twine at the top so I could easily loop it onto the buttons on the back of the chairs.
Then I slipped in a small Christmas stem. I could have gone more dramatic here with more stems or with added bows, but I decided to keep it simple.
And that’s all there is to it. I know….its not rocket science is it? Lol. But sometimes it takes a visual like this to get the point across.
Just by adding this simple detail you can see it adds so much charm to my dining room.
Don’t we home decor lovers just love a quick and easy (and inexpensive) DIY? Of course we do! Hope this has inspired you to do your own. Let me know if does!
Happy Decorating!
