There are many traditional and contemporary ways to decorate for the holidays both inside and outside the home. Christmas is arguably the most popular decorating holiday, but having decorations that are re-usable for other holidays is a great idea. Corey Curtis, General Manager at the Menards in Port Huron says, as you begin your Christmas decorating, you might want to consider a wide variety of lighting options such as: Rope lights, icicle lights or net lights for bushes or trees — Try multiple function light sets that do amazing things — Consider various sizes of bulbs from big, small, sphere, round or — warm, cool or multiple colors –Pathway, spotlight or window lighting and be sure to use those LED lighting options as they are energy efficient and last for years. Don’t forget to plan ahead and have tools readily available when decorating plus ladders, drills, adhesive strips, tape, nails, gutter hooks and anything else you might need. And, you might want to consider choosing Christmas decorations that have more of a wintry feel that can be used for a longer time frame
