It just makes it that much sweeter.”

“We’re all about here for the tinsel,” says Hunt.
“I think it’s super fun, but it’s still classic.”
Coziness Central

Sometimes, it can just be about setting the atmosphere.
The goal is peak coziness.

Candles can also go a long way in creating ambience.
Blues are always a good choice, with pink and yellow also finding popularity.

“One of my favorite holiday memories is my mom putting up our Christmas village,” says McPartland.
“So it’s something that we love to do and that the kids really appreciate.”
Decorating Across Rooms
Think big and don’t limit your indoor decor to the living room.

Take the decorations intoother roomsin the house, like bedrooms and the kitchen, to spread merriness throughout.
“We always gravitate towards incorporating fresh cedar any way we can into the house,” says Hunt.

Metallics take the gold when it comes to holiday decorating.
