I am really excited for winter, and I want to know how to bring some things into my home that make it feel like winter and Fall and Christmas and Halloween and stuff. I want it to be like whenenver you walk in the door, you get that feeling only felt at Christmastime ( happy and joyful) So do you guys and girls have any ideas?
Thanks,
Becca

get a big Christmas tree, lite Christmas scented candles, hang up lots of decorations, get the frost in a can to decorate your window, change out your dining set to Christmas designs, and Christmas lights
good luck

Decorate with colours that are associated with the season for one. You can never go wrong with red, green, silver, gold, white and all the different tinsels.
Hang tinsel from the ceiling or near doorways. Have a wreath on your front door. Remember that lights can be used both indoor and outdoor.
Have a few snow globes placed around the house, maybe even start a small Christmas village.
Have baked goods or trays filled with Christmas goodies.
Of course you also need a Christmas tree. Either place your favorite decorations on the tree, or go with some kind of theme, like something you would see in a magazine where all the ornaments are the same colours.
Bows and ribbons are also a nice and cheap way to make things look nicer.
Set up a Nativity scene.
Have Christmas music gently play in the background.

well the most important is that u r the kind of person who wants to feel it....some people can't really be softened with a candle or two....but I understand I like Christmas spirit a LOT too.....

its easy to achieve at my home becuase we have an apartment and I do the whole thing for Christmas. we put up the tree, I even decorate our fake tree we have out year round, I go to the dollar store and I get stuff like christmas placemats and napkin holders and plates and cups. I also get christmas mats for the coffee table and end tables, christmas candles...whatever I can find and I decorate with all that stuff. you cant help but walk in and feel Christmas. your best bet is to wait till the dollar stores fill with christmas stuff and get a bunch of things there. sometimes just burning christmas scented candles makes it fee; festive to me.

get christmas lights and put them along the walls, about 6 inches from the ceiling. Then wherever theres a table, put red candles surrounded with silk pointsettia flowers.

Move your house to Antarctica and remove the roof.
