Decorating Your Home for the Holidays

With the holidays right around the corner, you should try to draw inspiration from these great holiday decorating tips. 

It’s time to strip away the Thanksgiving decorations and deck the halls with boughs of holly. The holidays are here and it’s time to get festive! Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hannukah, Kwanza, or nothing at all, decorating your home puts you and any guests you may have over in the winter mood. Here are some quality and creative holiday decorative tips for you and your home.

Snowy Fruit

Even if it doesn’t snow where you’re from, you can still have snow-covered fruit in your home. Mix three parts white glitter to one part silver glitter. Then coat the plastic pears, limes, and grapes for a sparkly centerpiece.

Wreath of Ornaments

Spherical ornaments can serve more purpose than simply hanging on tree branches. With a bit of glue and a bit of patience, you can create your very own wreath made of ornaments! (Pro tip: We advise buying plastic ornaments, instead of glass ones to eliminate the cuts.)

Staircase Stockings

Your staircase railings can add the holiday feeling if you know how. From the railings, you can hang stockings with matching patterns. Then with a string of light, you can twirl it all the way around the railing.

Snowflake Coasters

Stitch up snowflake coasters for the holiday party if you’re rather skilled with a crochet and needle.

Decorating your home for the holidays is fun, but not as important as knowing your mortgage. Mortgages may seem like stressful contracts to obtain, but with the right preparation, they don’t have to be! Contact Dean Rathbun when it comes time to finding the perfect plan of action to buy your home.
