Eignt Environmental Psychology Holiday Decorating Tips

1. Too many small items in a small space tire the eye and

overload the brain. Don't go over the top with holiday

decorations. Don't spend your money foolishly on a lot of

cluttering ornamentation.

2. Choose a few large holiday decorations to make a bold

statement. Bright and deep colors take up more visual space.

3. Make a gorgeous framed note on parchment that says: "We love

the earth and choose to celebrate with nature."

4. Work with the holiday decorations you already have. Renew

tired ornaments with non-toxic craft paint.

5. Decorate with consumable food, like nuts, fresh fruit, and

cookies.

6. Decorate with Mother Nature. Cuttings of evergreens bring

respite to tired eyes and fresh aroma to enclosed stale air.

7. Increase your office productivity and business prosperity.

When people feel happy, they accomplish more. Take a tip from

music therapy expert Enicia Fisher: Play easily-recognized soft

music without voices. This encourages signing or humming to

oneself to fill in the lyrics.

8. Instead of hanging lights all over your home, concentrate on

the front entry to attract the eye and make all feel welcome.

Defeat holiday stress this year. Use holiday decorating ideas

that protect the environment and yourself.

Happy Holidays!
