Happy November friend!
Now, I know it’s only early November…
But earlier this week?
I gathered up all my pumpkin decor up and tucked it away back into the storage bins…

Because?
I prefer to start decorating early for the Christmas season, so that I can share with you all of the BEST & new holiday decor, before it sells out!
This way you have the inspiration you need and the access to ordering the exact items before the best decor is GONE!
So, today on the blog…that’s exactly what we are doing!
Today, on the blog, I am sharing the new holiday decor that I have bought and am loving from two of my favorite stores, Target & Amazon.

PLUS…
I am also sharing with you not only what I bought, but also HOW I am styling these new holiday decorations around my house!
Like, these gorgeous pre-lit birch trees from Amazon!

Also, in today’s blog post, I will show you exactly how I potted these birch trees in the gold planters, instead of using the stands they came with, for a prettier display!
Are you ready to see the new holiday decorations I have and am loving already?
I will link everything at the bottom of this post for easy click and go shopping!

Favorite New Holiday Decor & How To Style It & MORE
For starters, I am loving this outdoor rug and holiday door mat combination from Target!
Outdoor Rug & Mat Combination

I love this indoor / outdoor plaid accent rug from Target, layered with this Christmas tree holiday doormat, also from Target.
Can’t wait to decorate our Holiday front porch!
Here is how I styled our front porch last year.
Faux Stems & Branches
I purchased 5 of these gold leaf stems to possibly go in this large luxe gold hurricane holder, pictured below.
![](https://heatherkrout.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/IMG_0526-768x1024.jpg)
My plan is to mix these gold leaf stems with these glittered berry branch stems from Afloral.
Speaking of Afloral.

I also love to combine the real touch Norfolk pine garland with this seeded eucalyptus garland by twisting the two strands together.

I used this garland combination last year of the Real Touch Norfolk pine garland and this seeded eucalyptus garland to hang above our round mirror in our entryway.

This set of bells are the perfect size for styling on a console table, next to a small table top Christmas tree or vase filled with these Real Touch pine branch stems.
Christmas Tree Taper Candles – Amazon

If you followed me on Instagram or Facebook Stories yesterday, I showed you the behind the scenes of HOW I styled this set of pre lit Birch trees in these gold pots from Target instead of using the tree stands that they come with.
Here’s How To Pot Pre Lit Birch Trees Instead Of Using The Tree Stand.
![](https://heatherkrout.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/IMG_0571-768x1024.jpg)
I bought two medium and one small gold pot and filled the pot with this 4 inch CraftFom cake forms.
![](https://heatherkrout.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/IMG_0560-768x1024.jpg)
Next, I centered the tree stake into the CraftFom and pressed down through the foam.
![](https://heatherkrout.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/IMG_0583-768x1024.jpg)
Then, I used extra pieces of regular styrofoam that I had on hand to stabilize the foam in the center by easily cutting extra small pieces with a knife.
![](https://heatherkrout.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/IMG_0581-768x1024.jpg)
For the smaller tree and small gold pot, I carved off the sides of the CraftFom using a knife and shoved the foam into the small pot for a tight fit.
![](https://heatherkrout.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/IMG_0407-768x1024.jpg)
Last, I placed this SuperMoss preserved Spanish moss on top of the CraftFom and Strofoam pieces.

That’s It!
Now, be like Willa and sit back and enjoy the view! 🙂
