Tips for Decorating Your New Home for the Holidays

November 22, 2024

Decorating a new home for the holidays is an exciting step for owners of new homes in Rowlett TX. There’s nothing like a holiday celebration to make a new house feel like home.

So what can you do to get your new home ready for the season?

First, consider the spaces you want to decorate. Give some thought to how you want it to look and feel, rather than automatically putting up the same décor you used in your previous home. Unless that house was very similar to your new one, it’s unlikely that the same décor will fit both places. Plus, now that you’re in a new home you might want to embrace the opportunity to try a new style, color scheme or theme.

Another thing to reconsider is your Christmas tree. If your previous home was smaller or had low ceilings, your tree was most likely on the smaller side. Most of today’s new homes have volume ceilings in the living areas. A larger tree would look better in the more open space. This is your chance to have that impressive tree you’ve always dreamed of!

When you’re ready to choose new décor, take some time to browse online or in stores for items that fit your new home. Besides decorative items, look for cozy throws and sofa pillows for color and texture as well as function.

If your HOA allows, dress up your porch and front door with a holiday wreath, new welcome mat and outdoor décor such as lighted topiaries, wrapped faux gifts and luminaries. These can establish the theme or color palette that you’ll continue indoors.

Outdoor lighting is another festive touch when permitted by the HOA. Even a few lights on a small tree or wrapped around porch posts will add a welcoming touch.
