What’s trending for Christmas 2020

The holidays are going to be (and look) a little different this year.

We know that we’ll be limited the number of guests we have over and some will just stay home altogether because of COVID-19.

Your visit to see Santa will be different, too….many malls are planning no-contact experiences with plexiglass…and certainly no sitting on his lap.

People are also nostalgic for real Christmas trees, too…21% of those who bought an artificial tree last year or put up no tree are planning to go real this year.

You can “commemorate” 2020, too, with pandemic-themed decorations including an ornament of Santa wearing a face mask carrying a sack of hand sanitizer, wipes and toilet paper among with many other similar decorations.

And if you’re looking for something really different this year, why not make a succulent Christmas treeHome Depot has the DIY instructions!

However you celebrate…you’ll certainly remember it!
