Sprucing for the Holidays with Feather, Fluff & Flings
Ribbons, garlands, and ornaments – oh my! Tis the season to spiff, spruce, and spice up your home for the holidays. Lucky for us, we’ve got some of the foremost experts on seasonal decorating just down the road from our Susan Shaw headquarters.
Feather, Fluff and Flings offers a wide range of seasonal decorating, home staging and event planning services for any holiday or occasion. At the head of it all is Cheri Stith, who together with her team transforms clients' spaces into holiday wonderlands that look straight out of the pages of a copy of Better Homes & Gardens.
We visited Feather, Fluff and Flings’s San Antonio storefront and warehouse to get Cheri’s top three tips for decorating this holiday season!
Tip #1
Don’t Skimp on the Fluffing!
When working with artificial trees, wreaths, or greenery, Cheri recommends dedicating plenty of time to fluffing each and every branch. “Opening the faux greenery gives the most full, natural look,” she says.
tip #2
Third Time’s the Charm
To make sure your ornament is securely in place, wrap its wire around the branch, wreath, or mantlepiece precisely three full times. The best part? This makes takedown a breeze, too, as you know each element needs to be unwrapped exactly three times!
Tip #3
Break Out the Moving Blankets
You may not think to include some moving blankets in your Christmas decor box, but they actually make for a handy addition when you’re decorating the tree. Lay one around the base of your tree to provide a soft landing spot in case you drop any ornaments in the process. Then, lay your decorative Christmas tree skirt right on top – the moving blanket will add extra volume!
