As a Vancouver Home Stager, I advise Home Sellers to tone down the Christmas and holiday decorations. However, I'm also a Decorator, and when I wear my Decorator hat, I say let's decorate for the winter festive season. I think the key to a really successful Christmas display is to keep things tasteful. To do this, I like to use a lot of organic materials that you'd find in nature, such as tree boughs, pine cones, leaves and berries. Here are a few decorating tips and ideas you may like to try.

decorating for the holidays: Christmas Photo Contest - Fireplace Mantle
- 12/12/11 03:55 PM
Christmas Photo Contest - Fireplace Mantle There's nothing a decorator/Home Stager loves more than decorating their own fireplace mantle for the Christmas holidays. Who doesn't love the complimentary colour combination of green and red?! Add to that some sparkle, some silver, some natural elements and some whimsy, and you have a delightful focal point for all to enjoy. I still love my little Mr. & Mrs. Snowmen (or Bonhomme de Neige), sent to me last year by super Ottawa Realtor® Valerie Zinger! Thanks again, Valerie! Here's wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
