Outdoor rainbow fairy lights
The Times Property quotes Benjamin Bradley, Mr Christmas from Netflix’s Holiday Home Makeover With Mr Christmas. 'You will see more outdoor decorations than ever before, since that is how we are sharing our holiday spirit with friends and loved ones,' Benjamin says.
'Going all out with our decorating gives us a sense of release and is basically us saying to the world, "We are still here and we still have the holiday spirit".’
This home is captivating with colour– embracing the more is more approach for exterior Christmas decorating for 2024.
‘I’ve gone all out this year with the lights on our house!' says the owner. 'I wanted to cheer the street up after this rubbish year.’
We must admit, this rainbow bright house certainly does look cheery.
