I know your
greatest concern during the period
before Christmas is: “Besides the Christmas tree, what can I do to decorate my
house?”
Let's start
from the outdoor; if you have a house with a garden, the outdoor decoration
gives you great satisfaction!
Of course
if you want to be absolutely faithful to Santa Claus's decorative tradition you
should go and visit Rovaniemi village, near the Arctic circle. After being
visited by a traveler about a century ago, the news of the discovery of Santa
Claus's house was spread all over the world, and ever since thousands of people
go to discover the secret of real Christmas!
If you have
a real passion for colorful lights, please don't exaggerate and don't consume
as much energy as New York City!
A few
lights well placed or a tree in the middle of your garden is enough for a warm
welcome!
A door wreath is the nicest and most interesting
welcome element!
If you want
to create your own wreath you can choose among infinite inspirations!
Home made with fruits!
