·         Stay with one theme and style for your decorating. It makes shopping a bit easier and makes your home look and feel professionally decorated.

·         Decorating does not have to break the bank; you can easily make your own decorations, centerpieces, and ornaments. The possibilities are endless. Try taking old ornaments that you no longer like or use and put them in a glass holder, or even redecorate them by covering them in glitter to make a whole new looking ornament.

·         Let your nose know that the holidays are here. Place potpourri and scented candles throughout your home, or better yet, bake some cookies shortly before you have guests arrive.

·         Use a lot of candles; they tend to make any room warmer and more inviting.

·         Bring the holidays into every room. A great way to do this is to bring scented candles, potpourri, and small decorations into the kitchen, bathroom, and even the bedrooms.

·         Keep the holiday color palette between 2-3 colors, and keep it consistent; either throughout the house, or within each room. Too many colors can be too distracting. Try red and gold, or blue, white and silver.

·         Replacing lights can be expensive if you tend to change your color palette year to year. Try using white lights because they can be used with any color scheme.

·         Give your space a different look and feel for the holiday by rearranging the furniture so that the focal point is the tree or the fire place.

·         This is the one time where less is not more; have fun and do it big!
