Have you noticed that sellers start displaying their holiday decorations and merchandise earlier each year? Some people are happy to welcome the early Christmas joy, while others like me; i feel there is too much christmas to come any time soon. In a research poll of 1,000 American adults, 73 percent agree with the statement, “it’s annoying that the holiday shopping season has started earlier.” Forty-eight percent strongly agree. Only 21 percent disagreed. But if you are an enthusiastic ho ho ho shopper and enjoy Christmas decorating then this time of year is definitely the best choice for great deals on all things “holiday”.
What to buy and when?
Do you remember when the best deals came out after the holidays? Of course, this still applies to items like holiday cards and holiday wrapping paper. But now retailers are rolling out their holiday discounts early to make sure their stock is sold out before Christmas, and you don’t have to wait and buy after Christmas just to pack them up for the next 11 months before you can take advantage of them.
Reduce, reuse and recycle
The holiday season with its shopping, packaging and celebration greatly increases the amount of waste we generate. However, there are many options for the consumer to reduce, reuse and recycle the leftovers of the Christmas joy.
Before you buy something new, check what you already have, what else you can use and throw the rest away. Social networking sites like Pinterest can provide great ideas on how to repurpose current decorations.
Save your holiday decorations for reuse next year. Donate your old decorations to local schools, churches or other non-profit organizations.
Don’t be afraid of DIY Christmas markets. YouTube videos are all you need to make professional looking decorations, bows, table decorations etc. Use natural ornaments such as pine cones, shells, dried flowers or berries to transform old ornaments and decorate your home or office with refurbished wreaths and wreaths .
What are the new trends in festive decor?
One of the hottest trends in holiday decorations is black and white. Black and white is not only timeless, it is also the perfect backdrop to add any color you like, especially red and green. Use black and white to highlight your Christmas wreath, table runner or Christmas tree. Everything will look classic and elegant with a touch of black and white.
LED lights are ahead of bulbs in trees and houses. Remember that if you choose to upgrade your lights, the LEDs also have a bluish yellow white.
How about a winter theme instead of traditional Christmas decorations. If you use this more general theme, you can leave decorations for much longer and your neighbors won’t wonder why Santa is still on your roof in February.
Finally, instead of scattering small decorations all over your home, why not decorate one or two areas of your home with larger pieces. Your fireplace mantel and hallway can be used to show off your personal style.
Where to buy Christmas decorations
Decorating for the holidays can be very expensive. There is a way to create a beautifully decorated home for little or nothing. Craft stores and big box stores usually offer a 40 percent discount on coupons, while stores like Bed, Bath & Beyond offer a 20 percent discount on some Christmas items. Dollar Tree is one of the best holiday shopping destinations on a budget. They wear decorations for every holiday, including Christmas and Thanksgiving. Other retailers to consider include Kirkland’s, Pier 1 Imports, Jo-Ann, Big Lots, Sears, and Target.
Hope these ideas bring some joy to your home this Christmas! Remember that dressing up your home will set the stage for your family holiday celebrations.
