Flickr Finds: Small Holiday Decor Creates A Big Impact

The details in this tiny tree scene make an impact!

A lot of people like to go big with decorations during the holiday season. The big tree, the strings of lights, etc. While we love seeing this style of pretty decor, another way to consider going is small. Sometimes the smaller the decor, the bigger the impact.

We love this simple + small ornament display that stands out!

We love Apartment Therapy Flickr member, hnxing's, small detailed designs! They feel intimate, cozy and make a big statement! Plus we love her DIY straight from AT. Try creating a small detailed holiday design for your own space.

I have that same ornament...These displays are lovely!

I came up with a fairly simple way to display my ornaments this year, since we don't have a tree:

You can never go too big.

When you haven't a lot of place or like minimalistic style, that's great to use small pieces of decorations. For example, using tabletop christmas trees is great. Or just small ornaments like on your example is even better.
