Christmas appears as a yearning for joy, a need for unmatched celebrations in spite of dietary constraints. We hope for it, hoping that this holiday will mark a return to basics and traditions.

When decorating for the holidays in 2022, what theme should we use?
The month of December is a time of change. Your decor suddenly takes on a festive holiday tone. There's plenty of space for everyone from the foyer through the dining area.
The first step is deciding what sort of vibe you want to create in your abode: Danish Christmas hygge, with all its emphasis on natural, colorful, cozy, traditional elements... Which do you prefer: pure and soft touches, or a departure from your minimalist norms for the occasion? As such, we'd like to show you some fresh territory.
Excessive packaging, tree cutting, and other Christmas traditions can be bad for the environment. The Earth that we all call home is in danger, but we can try to protect it in different ways. Everything can come together quickly with some inspiration from branches, leaves, pine cones, and other natural elements.
An eco-friendly way to count down to Christmas
Small cardboard cubes that can be recycled annually, a wooden branch with numbered paper clips, or even our dear toilet paper rolls are all great options for the latecomers. This year, I decided to get my kids an advent calendar made of wood, which I plan to use every year and fill with little notes of affection, snacks, and treats. Craft or fabric bags are an alternative.
The Christmas wreath is a welcome addition to the traditional holiday decor
Assuming they are still available, the great Christmas classics can be enjoyed again through lovely DIY ideas to recreate them at home. How about we treat eucalyptus's entrance to the party like fir branches do to the Christmas wreath? Don't hold back on your creative thinking. Square, equilateral, it doesn't matter. Your Christmas ornament will be complete with pompoms and wooden beads.
What's more, that's not all. Create your own eucalyptus garlands and table centerpieces and you will be pleased. What if we decided to take it easy this holiday season? By opting for eco-friendly, waste-free, do-it-yourself decorations and French artisanal goods instead?
Waste-free, all-natural fir trees for the holidays
In my wanderings the other day, I found myself contemplating the origins of Christmas and the mystery that surrounds it. What makes a Christmas tree more festive, decorating it or just having it in your living room?
You will find a plethora of create a DIY Christmas tree that will last for years to come. An assortment of naturally occurring trees that generate no waste, are space-efficient, and can be used over and over again are presented here.

- Dried flowers adorn a poetic tree
- Folding and assembling origami
- Make your own out of wood
A large green plant, or even a cactus, will do the trick, if you're looking for something that's a little more unique and shocking.
If you answered "yes" to the first question, I recommend borrowing a potted tree from one of several different organizations or purchasing one that is certified organic. This is the best way to observe the tradition while also doing your part for the environment.
Creating your own handmade holiday decor
We went on a nature walk and gathered some ferns and green leaves to put in clear balls; when we added a white feather, the magic worked again. For the savvy, I offer the suggestion of slicing an orange, gathering cinnamon sticks from a tree branch, and collecting pine cones to create something lovely for the home or as a unique Christmas decoration. Small ornaments can be crafted from wool by wrapping the material around a cardboard star. Try giving your kids some salt dough or colored modeling clay to work with. You can make beautiful, shiny stars with your baking molds that you can enjoy year after year.
