When it comes to the holidays, there is nothing that compares to gathering friends and family in your home, exchanging gifts, talking about your New Year’s resolutions, and celebrating over food and laughter. For those with a sentimental spot for tradition, decorating your home marks the beginning of the Christmas and New Year seasons. With that in mind, we’ve sourced some of the best places to pick up bits and bobs to deck your halls and ring in the new year.
