Christmas Decorations...Indoor & Outdoor

-

 

It's Christmas time!! And it's time to get a classic Christmas tree! Some of us like them natural, with the typical scent of Christmas...but, for me, it's more practical to get an artificial tree. 

Artificial trees can be reused year after year, lowering the overall cost of Christmas celebrations. You can store them away easily and use different ornaments each year for variation, if we want a different look each year. You don't have to water an artificial Christmas tree, you won't have to vacuum the falling needles and the vast majority are flame-retardant. 

Also, you won't trigger anybody's allergies and you don't have to worry about mold or bugs in them. If you want to have the scent of Christmas in your home, there are candles that can do the job! 

Here are some gorgeous trees. Some are pre-lit, so you don't have to buy separate lights for them.

 
 
 
 Outdoor lights have become part of the tradition. They can be simple lights or shaped like snowflakes or icicles. Either way, they are a way of sharing the holiday spirit with neighbors or passers-by. 

 
 

Multi-color or single color lights are gorgeous, but, particularly if you have children, you want a show of lights . I think these lights are a lot of fun..they change color automatically or by remote control! 


Last but not least...if you have a nice size yard...you may want to get some inflatable Christmas "statues". These decorations are great for children with the characters of Christmas holidays and even some novel ones ..like penguins or dinosaurs. It's like having a miniature park at your home. 


 

Click on any of the images to see more details about each tree, light system or inflatable decoration..or shop for many others available. 

Have a very Merry Christmas..and may the spirit of Christmas - love, sharing and togetherness - last all year long for you and your family!

 Cornhole is a classic lawn game in which players toss bean bags at a board with a hole. A bag through the hole scores 3 points; a bag on the board, scores 1 point. The winner is the first to get 21 points. Kids and adults both play cornhole informally in parties like weddings, family reunions, tailgates, holiday BBQ parties, ...or any day, in backyards or any open space mainly during the warm seasons of the year. It can be played indoors, but it's typically an outdoor lawn game.  The game has become a sport, even with world championships/. Sets for competition (or self-challenge!) have to follow rules regarding size of the board, position and size of the hole, and size and weight of the bean bags. For example, the "regulation" board must measure 2 ft x 3 ft and the "bean" bag must actually must be filled with corn kernels and be square and weight 1 lb and measure 6 inches x 6 inches. You can build one yourself, or buy a regulation or informal board set from var
