Hack #3: Feather duster Christmas trees
The next trick involves trimming feather dusters into charming tree shapes to add a fluffy yet minimal elegance to your holiday decor. Once you've shaped the duster to your liking, simply insert the metal stem into floral foam and display in a Christmas mug, ceramic pot or any vessel you have on hand and decorate with fairy lights like those we recommended above.
Hack #4: Ribbon card display
Make a ribbon card display using your favorite ribbon, painters tape and mini clothespins. Start with a piece of ribbon over the front of your kitchen cabinet, securing it with painters tape on the inside of the door. Use clothes pins to attach all of your holiday cards to the front ribbon and voila!
