Decorations For The Christmas Season

NOVEMBER 8 2009 - JANUARY 5 2010 is the Niagara Falls

Festival of Lights

DON'T MISS IT!!!!!

So you got the Christmas music playing, the cookies and squares are baking or cooling, the kids are watching Charlie Brown Christmas, the other half is sampling the eggnog and now you have to decide where to start with the decorations. So let's first try to decide what type of light you want. Do you want the Icicles or snowflakes that hang down or the traditional round colored bulbs for your tree. Do you want the clear white lights or colored ones? Do you want the multi colored lights or just one color? Do you want just the bulbs or would you sooner have shapes like stars, icicles, snowflakes or cartoon characters? Do you want strings, tubes or garlands? There's a lot of choices when it comes to picking out your lights but first off you have to decide where they're going first. Are they going on the tree and if they're going around the tree do you want just the solid color strings or would tubes be easier? Or will you start by going around the outside of the house? Maybe around the windows? Do you want to use the strings, garlands or the nets to cover the entire window? Stringing them from your ceiling or putting them around the trees or bushes outside? Maybe from the ceiling would be the best place for the Icicles or snowflakes that hang and I know the nets work great drapped over the bushes. So what are ya doing? Sitting here reading this isn't getting those decorations up.

And then you have the novelty lights. If you want to go with a theme there's animals such as bears, moose, horse and different birds. If you're a fishing fanatic there's tons of different lures, anchors and fish. There's lanterns, campers and cowboots among others. There's also ball clusters and spheres.

And he won't be waking up the kids, who seem to be having "visions of sugar plums dancing in their heads", who about an hour ago claimed they weren't tired. ;) For the outdoors you have choices of stationary wall decorations, animated rooftop or yard displays, stars, santas, topiaries and more.

o you have a fireplace that needs a little pick-me-up for Christmas? How about the front door or side door? Window ledges? Try some garland or a nice big wreath. These things always add the finishing touches. But don't forget the kissing ball or maybe some mistletoe. Where else would ya find Santa kissing mommy.
