Home Decorating for the Holidays

Decorating Your Home for the Holidays



The holiday season is a great time to give your home a festive look both inside and
out. There are many decorations and decorating tips from the large display of
Christmas villages to the small knick-knacks that complete your holiday look.

Hanging a wreath over a door or in windows can be done inexpensively to create instant holiday cheer. Garlands complete the look.

Christmas decorations can also be collectables. Whether it is a nutcracker collection or Christmas bulbs and ornaments or a particular type of decoration,
giving your holiday decor a theme based on your interests and what you collect is
also a way to tie a look together.

If you have your home for sale, you can still decorate as you like but keep walkways
clear and limit some decorations that may increase clutter. If your home still has not sold when the holidays have ended, be certain to put all decorations away before the showings begin again in January. Replace any furniture that needed to be moved
to accommodate your holiday decor.

Candles are a tradition at Christmas too, but keep in mind the potential fire hazard that unattended candles can pose. Do not place any candles near presents, draperies or other flammable items. Extinguish candles on the dinner table once the meal has ended.

Enjoy your holidays this year. Divine Home Staging and Decor wishes everyone a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year 2011!
