Holiday decorating should feel fun and inspiring, not stressful. The good news is you can easily make your apartment festive and cozy without putting a single hole in the wall!

I'm also excited to share why Camden North End is one of my favorite communities: The modern layouts, bright living areas, and clean, beautiful finishes are exactly what make these apartments the perfect backdrop for your holiday creativity.

Here are four easy, renter-friendly ideas that look fantastic and keep your beautiful space in great shape.

1. Stick, Don’t Nail

Forget the hammer and nails, modern adhesives are your best friend this season. Utilize Command strips and hooks for light wreaths, stockings, and lightweight garlands, or double-sided sticky tape for holiday bows, signs, and card displays. These simple swaps bring the sparkle without leaving a trace when the season is over.

2. Wrap, Wind, and Hang

Garlands and lights add instant holiday charm and look beautiful when wrapped around things you already use every day. Best of all, they require zero wall contact. Adjustable wreath hangers are a fantastic option for front door wreaths, requiring zero drilling or adhesive and can be saved for next year!

3. Cozy Textures Make the Biggest Difference

Craving instant holiday vibes? Swap in the soft stuff! Festive pillows, chunky throws, textured rugs, and winter bedding add warmth and color without any installation required. By simply switching out fabrics, your apartment will immediately feel like a cozy holiday retreat.

4. Lean Your Favorite Pieces for a Chic, Easy Look

Have a holiday sign or a framed print you adore? Skip hanging it this year! Lean it against a wall, a dresser, a console table, or a kitchen counter for a stylish, effortless look. This technique is aesthetic, elevated, and completely damage-free.
