Decorating for Christmas means spending a lot of time with family
For me, decorating for Christmas means spending a lot of time with family. We all get together and spend a night at each house just decorating and getting the holiday feeling in everything.
We always buy a live tree, so we can plant it in the yard after Christmas is over. All of our ornaments and a good amount of our decorations have been passed down from family for generations.
I like the Holiday Stickers that are kind of plastic and are restickable made to be stuck on windows.
And we get Walmart brand lights for the tree and around the house, I like the ones that are just green and red. I’m also a big fan of home-made Christmas decorations.
We’ll take large fresh oranges and whole cloves, and stick the cloves all over in the oranges. Hang them around the house, one in each room should be plenty.
The smell is delicious – and it’s a scent that will forever be associated with the Holidays.
And instead of buying mistletoe, we go out into the forest and find our own. You can find enough for an entire wreath! Have fun with it and be creative. And don’t forget to include the kids!
