Mini Tree on the Front Door. No space inside? A 3–4 ft tree with solar lights and big red bows on your main door is a new viral trend. Your house is spotted from the street!
Floating Ornaments from the Ceiling. Hang red, gold, and clear baubles with invisible thread at different heights. Walk in, and it feels like magic is falling from the sky.
