Easy holiday decorating ideas

This year, I can't decorate full out the way I normally do. But with a 3 yo, I want to do something. Everything is packed away, however. I don't have access to anything right now.

I need ideas on how to make it festive but quick to undo should we have to pack sooner than anticipated.

I would definitely do a tree, just don't put as many ornaments. Do a few balls , some candy canes and lights. I bought a very slim tree this year for next to my fireplace downstairs from Target, easy to put up, maybe get one of those, and then you can use it in another room separate from your main tree next year? Snowflakes, window decals, Christmas signs for in the windows. I border my windows with that flocking snow, it looks pretty from the outside.

I would get a table size tree and put a few ornaments on it. You can also play Christmas music. Can you have your dc color or make paper decorations? Christmas cookies or a gingerbread house would be a fun craft and decoration too.

I would definitely set up a tree. Get some candy canes and a cheap box of ornaments to hang. You can make those construction paper garland links and hang them around the house. I would have your DC color some pictures and hang them around. Cut out snowflakes, etc.

My SIL got some lightweight, large gift boxes one year - wrapped them up really pretty and holiday-y and then just hung them on her walls (with those removable hooks). It looked AMAZING! I think she also wrapped some large pics she had hanging on her walls.
