Frequently asked questions
Can I leave outdoor Christmas decor on the patio all winter?
Yes if the decor is rated for outdoor use. Bring delicate ornaments, ribbons and fabric items in during heavy snow or rain to extend their life beyond one season.
How do I light a patio for Christmas?
Run two parallel strings of warm white globe lights overhead, add a lantern cluster on the table or floor, and wrap any outdoor trees with mini lights from trunk to tip.
What kind of tree works on a patio?
A pre-lit potted spruce or cypress in a heavy planter survives the season outdoors. Anchor the planter against wind and decorate with shatterproof outdoor ornaments only.
