Thanksgiving Weekend is known for more than gorging on leftovers and watching football. It's also the time when Floridians go to their storage units, pull out bins full of Christmas items, and decorate the house. After Hurricane Ian, many lost all or some of their cherished ornaments and decor. For TikTok Tuesday, I've gathered 5 easy DIY holiday decor ideas that will turn heads this season.
One of the things I love most about a majority of these videos is that they make use of things you might already have around the house. Up-cycling at it's best. In addition, the things you need to purchase can easily be found at discount and dollar stores in Southwest Florida. Bling on a budget.

Glorious Wreath
You could cut the pool noodles in half to make smaller wreaths as well. You probably have one that has seen better days and could use a little upcycling.
