Glowing strings of lights, lush greenery, sparkling ornaments and colorful Christmas bows are just some of the essentials needed to transform your home into a winter wonderland. For most of us, the Christmas cheer starts long before December 25 – we think it starts as early as you start decorating. The holiday season isn’t in full swing until the tree is decorated, the stockings are hung and shades of red and green flow through the house. We also understand that Christmas decorations year after year can start to feel old, especially if you’re trying to reuse last year’s decorations.
