Are you ready for Christmas and all the extra stress that comes with it? These tips cover everything you might need to make your holiday’s amazing, from the tree to the santa plates stashed in the back of the storage closet.
Indoors
- Decide whether you should buy a fresh Christmas tree or an artificial one. It’ll come down to preference.
- Choose Christmas ornaments with significance for you such as ornaments from your favorite vacation handmade, or opt for a specific style.
- Be careful using traditional tinsel if you have pets—ribbon and other alternatives are a safer choice.
- Tree skirts come in styles from traditional to modern—and metal or wooden collars are a new option.
- A tree stand ensures that your fresh Christmas tree stays well-hydrated.
- Find out how many lights you’ll need to cover your tree—and find places to decorate with Christmas lights, such as putting strings of lights along the mantel, stair banister, or smaller trees throughout your home.
- Choose fresh or artificial evergreens, berries, sparkling glass beads, felt balls, or whatever suits your decorating style.
- Natural scented pinecones, oranges, frosted cranberries, and cinnamon sticks make a home feel warm and cozy.
- Ribbons can also be a festive addition to your tree and stair banister.
- Install sturdy hooks for stockings on your mantle.
- Choose holiday linens that suite your decorating style like tablecloths, table runners, napkins, and placemats.
- Festive dishware and serving platters can put your everyday dishes into holiday mode.
- Use your Christmas decoration storage box to store your usual accessories while your holiday ones are out on display.
Outdoor
- Display a fresh evergreen wreath or a pretty artificial one on doors to welcome guests.
- Bigger string light bulbs will add a more dramatic look to your home.
- Place string lighting through the bushes.
- Set out lawn blowups, figurines or whatever suits your theme.
- Make sure the extension cords are rated for outdoor use. Timers or smart plugs will help conserve electricity.
- Choose festive flags that match your holiday decorating theme.
- Purchase or make outdoor-friendly bows that can stand up to the winter weather.
