Guest guest Posted December 6, 2002 Report Share Posted December 6, 2002 Tip of the Day: Holiday Decorating Tips: * Use small or mini ornaments as accents. They are great for things like ceiling fan pulls, curtain ties, attaching to napkin rings, accenting houseplant pots, attached to candle holders, let your imagination go. * If you have access to a holly tree or to mistletoe, use it liberally. Accent picture frames and wall hangings, doorways, cabinet tops, centerpieces. Hang sprays of it everywhere, even in the bathroom. * Nothing enhances the holiday mood like the smells of Christmas. Use Christmas potpourri, air fresheners, and scented candles, plug ins, etc. Tie cinnamon sticks to a sprig of holly with festive ribbon and lay them around the house and hangs them on the tree. Cloves add wonderful scent to the holiday home. * Have holiday music on hand and play it constantly. * Pine cones! Put them everywhere. In baskets, on tables, on mantles, on the bathroom counter. Pinecones are beautiful holiday accents plain or decorated. * Ribbons and bows are a versatile part of holiday decorating. Buy several spools of ribbon and use it everywhere. Tie it around the kitchen cabinets and attach a small classy bow in the front, tie them around fingertip towels and napkins, lampshades, throw pillows, just use your imagination. * Candles make a beautiful addition to any decor....all kinds! Even if you never light a candle, its presence alone suggests warmth. However, with small children around it's often not safe to have them lit. *********** My Special Thought To You: If God Brings You To It, He'll Bring You Through It! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
