3 Tips In Decorating Your Home For Christmas

 




It’s a tradition for a lot of Filipino families to decorate their homes for the Christmas season. Some even do it as early as soon as September hits, while some do it after Halloween.

If you haven’t decorated your home yet, it’s not too late! You still have plenty of time to ornate your home with Christmas decors, both inside and outside. But before you start decorating, beware! It’s a fun thing to do with the whole family, but it’s not easy.

If you’re planning to decorate your home for this Christmas, here are 3 quick and easy tips.


Allot more than a day to decorate
Trust us, it’s going to take more than a day to decorate your home. If you still have the decorations from the past years, dusting them and making sure they’re still in the right condition can take a lot of time. Of course, you also allocate time for cleaning the parts of your home where you’ll place the decorations.

Make sure you plan ahead of time before you decide to decorate. Otherwise, you may end up spending more time decorating the home than you’re supposed to.


Search for themes and motif
Another struggle when decorating for Christmas is setting the theme. Going for the classic red and green never gets old, but it gets boring if that’s all you decorate every year. A cool hack would be to search on Pinterest for new themes to try out.

You don’t have to purchase all new decorations just so you can have a fresh concept. Unleash your creativity and mix and match Christmas decors.


Limit your kids’ involvement
Decorating for Christmas is a family activity, including your kids. Get them involved, but not too involved. Otherwise, you won’t complete your decorating schedule for the day. Be it letting them hang decors on the Christmas tree or placing gifts under the tree, make it clear to them what they can and can’t do.


For the final decor, involve your youngest kid to place the star on top of the Christmas tree! It’s a Pinoy tradition and a cute little note to finish your decorating.


A well-decorated home is not the most important thing this Christmas. It’s getting together as a family and as a community, celebrating the holidays together, and eating good food together. BellaVita places great emphasis on community and enjoying the holidays together.


One of life’s necessities is having a home, but have you ever had a place you can call your own? Here in BellaVita, we will highlight to you the importance of one of our brand pillars, Sakto sa Bulsa, or in other words, affordability.


In a time of great uncertainty, a voice of knowledge and reassurance can make all the difference. "Stay home" has been the consistent mantra of the pandemic, and having a home you love where you can safely shelter in place feels more important than ever. Our mission in BellaVita, to provide a quality and affordable living experience to the Filipino people, remains true and the same especially during times like this.


Having said that, we are focused on fulfilling our mission by offering a house and lot for as low as P450,000 with a 22-square meters floor area and an average lot area of 36 square meters. It only takes Php 3,500.00 out of your wallet or bank account to reserve a unit with BellaVita. Monthly amortization for as low as Php 1,887 or just about P60 per day, cheaper than branded coffee or milk teas. Spending on your own home is a better investment, don’t you think?


BellaVita offers one of the lowest prices you'll ever see in the market. Furthermore, you can choose between Pag-IBIG or a bank to finance your dream investment.

5 Ways To Celebrate Your Newborn’s Homecoming Day

Pexels

 

The birth of a baby is a remarkable time for the whole family. And the day you bring the newborn to their home should be marked with a warm welcome celebration. Whether you're planning to have a grand party or just a small get-together, there are many ways to celebrate your joy. One of the ways to celebrate a baby's arrival is by displaying welcome home baby signs. If you have no clue how to start designing or choosing your custom yard sign for the occasion, here are some themes to take inspiration from.


Cute and Simple
If you're looking for a simple and heartfelt sign to congratulate the parents on the baby's homecoming, choosing cute and simple signs can be the most ideal. You could also choose to put a customized message on the sign instead of the usual 'Welcome Back' phrase.

Depending on whether the baby is a boy or a girl, you could also use appropriate color schemes to make the sign look personalized for the baby and parents. Ensure that it's surrounded by balloons to make it look super cute!

Extravagant Signs
If extravagance and over-the-top designs are your styles, then go all the way out with the colors and fonts. When you can't contain your happiness and excitement about having a baby in the house, choose to celebrate it lavishly by getting numerous welcome home baby signs and displaying them everywhere. 

You could choose to make one giant yard sign so that even people at the far end of your neighborhood will be able to see it. To make it seem extravagant, consider adding as much bling and sparkle to it as you can.

Sophisticated and Chic
Not everyone is a big fan of over-the-top designs that engulf their whole property. When you're looking for a modest but fun way of showing your excitement about having a baby in the house, choosing sophisticated signs is ideal.

When choosing a design for your sign, ensure that it doesn't have too many bright or neon colors. This will dismiss the elegance of the theme. It would be best to consider cursive or flowy letter fonts to make the whole sign look more classic and chic. Moreover, you should avoid sparkly letters or confetti around the sign to ensure that it remains minimalist but gets the message across.

Based On A Theme
If you're confused about what type of design or personalization would be appropriate for a baby's homecoming, choosing a theme is an easy way to prepare a sign, especially if you're short on time.

You could choose a theme based on the design of the baby's nursery or by using a kid's movie as a reference. Getting a 'Finding Nemo' or 'Lion King' inspired sign is a sure way to please everyone while conveying the message.

With Additional Decorations
Sometimes, just getting a sign isn't enough. Consider getting additional decorations alongside your welcome home yard sign when you're looking to do more with less. These additional decorations could consist of:
  • Balloons
  • Confetti
  • Banners
  • Lights
Depending on your requirements, you could customize these props after getting the sign delivered.

A yard sign is a perfect celebratory decoration when you're looking to welcome a baby with style and flair. Be a part of the happy moments of your loved ones and show them how much you appreciate them for being in your life.

Live Safe with Defensil Isopropyl Alcohol

*Defensil 70% Isopropyl Alcohol was tested against Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhimurium, Escherichia coli or E. coli, and Candida albicans




Defensil Isopropyl Alcohol encourages Filipinos to live safe with many establishments slowly re-opening and allowing people to resume their pre-pandemic lifestyles.


With the nationwide vaccination program in full force, Filipinos can slowly enjoy various activities such as more dining options as well as doing physical activities by going to the gym. However, health experts continue to remind everyone to not let their guards down even as we gradually go back to normal.


As there are reports of new and potentially more contagious variants, everyone must remain vigilant through following established health protocols and getting vaccinated so we can all continue to live safe and prevent the cases from surging again.


That’s why when we do essential errands such as buying groceries, exercising outdoors, or simply going outside, disinfecting your hands and any surface you interact with goes a long way to ensure living safely for you and your family.


One way to prevent the spread of the virus is by always carrying a trusted rubbing alcohol brand that contains at least 70& alcohol solutions whenever you go outdoors.


Defensil 70% Solution Isopropyl Alcohol, the alcohol recommended by the Philippine Society for Microbiology (PSM), can kill 99.9% of common germs and bacteria starts to kill them on contact so that you can safely do the activities you love wherever you are. Defensil also provides up to 12 hours of protection upon constant use so that you are protected and do activities with ease.


Skin dryness from too frequent sanitizing will also not be a worry as Defensil has moisturizing properties and is hypoallergenic, giving you one less thing to worry about when going indoors.


"We are 100% behind the government in their efforts to prevent further spread of the virus. Defensil encourages everyone to remain vigilant now more than ever and do our part in this fight towards eventually resuming our normal way of life by adhering to social Distancing and sanitation protocols, especially when doing essential errands outdoors," shared Nikko Cruz, Brand Manager of Defensil Isopropyl Alcohol.
Since nowadays, I buy most of our stuff online I make sure that before I opened the packages, I sanitized them with Defensil. I really like it, this alcohol is not drying and kids love the smell too! I make to point that I have Defensil alcohol in our home and of course when going out.
