It’s time to deck the halls again. And that includes giving the exterior of your home a makeover as well. Transform
windows, walkways and bare branches to create a warm and welcoming holiday home. As you explore your festive options, you’ll find there’s a lot more out there than the old string of multi-coloured lights. From new fangled lights to fresh foliage, the
holiday season doesn’t have to be dull and dreary on the outside. It only takes a little imagination to liven things up dramatically. Here are 7 ideas to inspire your holiday spirit.
Starry string lights
