Holiday décor should bring the joy of the season to life—but for many designers this time of year can inspire as much dread as delight. Are you expected to deck the homes of clients for the holidays because you designed their space? How do you manage expectations? Is there any way to make the season profitable and not a drag on your resources? Two interior designers—Charlotte Barnes and Lindsay Anyon Brier—and floral designer Denise Porcaro Tupper weigh in on how to navigate the pitfalls of holiday décor and entertaining, how to make the season profitable for your firm, and whether you should even try to expand beyond the expected red and green, holly and mistletoe.

In the twinkling embrace of holiday lights and the warmth of festive traditions, there's a magical opportunity to transform our approach to holiday decor. Let's embark on a journey of rethinking, where simplicity and sustainability take center stage, creating not just a beautifully adorned space but a haven of joy for both the season and the planet.

December is here, and along with it, holiday decorating. Grace your containers, windowboxes, and maybe even a few spots indoors with cut branches and greens! Hear our suggestions and get advice from designer Deborah Silver.

Thanksgiving is behind us, so it's officially time to decorate for Christmas! (Let's be honest, most of us already have.) This is a podcast about decluttering, but it's not a podcast about stringent rules or opinions. All of us will land somewhere a little different when it comes to how much holiday decor we'd like to display. The key is intentionality-- what holds meaning to us? What do we want to put the effort into taking down in January? What do we want to store the other 10-11 months out of the year? From trees and ornaments to garland and knick knacks, I dive into my own evolution of decorating for the holidays and offer helpful approaches to pare down the clutter with the goal of making room for the *true* magic of the season.

Western conifer seed bugs are among the many insect visitors that may make your home theirs for the winter. They seek hibernation spots in fall and even the best kept homes provides all sorts of prime real estate for six-legged critters. We tend to see them coming or going in fall and spring, but moving decoration boxes from attic or basement tends to wake sleeping guests at this time of year. So you may see a stray box elder bug, lady beetle, or even a Western conifer seed bug scrambling along your window sill in mid winter. None of the mini visitors I mentioned are cause for alarm and you will certainly be safe from seed bugs .... unless you happen to be a conifer seed. But conifer seed bugs are not pantry pests and so even your pine nuts will be safe. If you find a stray insect or several, a glass and an envelope is all you need to turn them loose. And if a much larger count disrupts your happy home, a quick pass with the long tube on your vacuum is a more than viable alternative to chemical warfare. Besides, after death by insecticide, you'll still have to suck up the remains. All of that said, I would make an exception for bed bugs; if you are unlucky enough to host these particularly unwelcome guests, it is time to call in the professionals.
