JAKARTA - Entering the holiday season, the temptation to hunt cheap Christmas decorations especially in the midst of Black Friday euphoria can be very tempting. However, as reminded by a team from Real Simple, reported Friday, December 5, don't let you be tempted to buy cheap decorations that eventually end up in a warehouse or worse, go straight to the trash.

Christmas should be more than just a shine without meaning. Choose the decorations you really love and can be used over and over again. Avoid the temporary Christmas lights that are difficult to break and install, instead, consider permanent lights that can give you a warm feel throughout the season and be more practical in use.

Furthermore, don't be tempted by cheap Christmas trees. Low-quality plastic trees often look cheap and easily damaged, end up being thrown away quickly after a season or two. On the other hand, a high-quality Christmas tree with built-in light often gives a luxurious impression and lasts dozens of seasons, making the initial investment feel commensurate.

If you like a classic and flexible touch, get rid of the obligation to buy wrapat (leaf wrap) or super sparkling decoration every year. Simple Wrap with built-in lights can be your canvas. Just add more ribbons, ornaments, or other decorative elements according to taste and you get a new look without the need to buy new stuff every year.

The final touch of decorations that are 'classy' doesn't have to be expensive. LED Candles or refillable tea lights provide a warm ambience without the risk of fire, as well as being more environmentally friendly than disposable candles. Christmas-motivated sofa pillows or pillowcases can sweeten the family space, without adding heavy items that are difficult to store outside the holiday season.

In the end, the spirit of Christmas decoration shouldn't be about how much you buy, but how wise you choose. By choosing eternal, flexible, and easily adapted decorations, the house will feel warm and festive. At the same time remain elegant and without regrets when the season passes.
