WHAT ARE SOME TIPS FOR MAKING THE HOLIDAY SEASON LESS STRESSFUL?

This means that you should start planning for the holidays early so that you don’t have to do everything at the last minute. Another tip is to delegate tasks. This means that you should assign tasks to different members of the family so that everyone has something to do and no one is overwhelmed.
Make a plan
Sit down with your family and decide what kind of holiday decorations you want to put up this year. If you’re stuck for ideas, take a look at magazines or search the internet for inspiration. Once you’ve settled on a general theme, you can start making a list of all the things you’ll need to make your vision a reality.
Take your time
Rome wasn’t built in a day, and neither should your holiday display! Spread out the decorating over several days or even weeks so that it doesn’t feel like too much work at once. Remember, the process is just as important as the end result, so enjoy yourselves and don’t stress too much about getting everything perfect.
Make it special
Personalize your decorations by incorporating items that have sentimental value or special meaning to your family. For example, you could use Grandpa’s old army uniform as part of your Christmas tree decorations or bake Grandma’s famous sugar cookies to hang on the tree (just make sure to eat some while they’re fresh!). These types of decorations will not only look great but will also fill your home with happy memories of holidays past.
Follow the tips above to make sure your family enjoys every step of the process, from coming up with ideas to putting the final touches on your holiday display. And don’t forget to personalize your decorations by incorporating items that have sentimental value or special meaning to your family. These decorations will help bring Christmas magic to your home long after the holiday is over.
