Home for the Holidays!
Every year, the holidays seem to sneak up on us. But this year, thanks to The Home Depot, we're better prepared so you can spend time where you want to: with your loved ones.
Santa’s Little Helper
As the days grow shorter and the temperatures drop, The Home Depot app is truly Santa’s little helper for holiday preparation, decorating and gift-giving, making the change of the season affordable, easy and convenient.
Imagine coming to a home that instantly puts you in the holiday spirit. The Home Depot makes it possible with a range of festive decorations. Consider the 30-inch prelit wreath or the LED yard inflatable - guaranteed to wow the neighborhood kids and create a magical atmosphere. The best part? They'll be delivered right to your door and installation is a breeze.
And let's be honest, no one wants to deal with unexpected sewage backups or last-minute chaos searching for batteries. The Home Depot has your back with essential supplies, such as storage solutions like a battery organizer or a 27-gallon storage tote. You can enjoy the holidays stress-free, knowing you're prepared for any unexpected surprises.
Home decorating can sometimes be a daunting task, but it can be a breeze with ready-to-go solutions. In minutes, set up a pre-lit LED artificial Christmas tree or a 9-foot pre-lit LED garland to add character to your fireplace mantle. Say goodbye to the fuss of detangling wires and hello to effortless holiday decorating.
A Workshop From the Heart
Sometimes, the most cherished gifts are those made from the heart and the hands. Embrace your inner DIY enthusiasm and grab the RYOBIONE+ six tool combo kit, perfect for a beginner. Whether it's building something from scratch or making improvements around the house, this kit has you covered. No job can be complete without a compact magnetic tape measure or a rafter square set.
With some common lumber and basic tools, you can create heartfelt, handmade gifts for your family and friends. It could be the start of a new tradition full of love, as you put your heart and soul into crafting personalized presents.
Three Gifts To Consider Making
Do you have a baker in your family? A rack to organize spices can be a thoughtful and practical gift using pre-cut poplar project boards. You can create a spice rack that complements a kitchen. It's a gift that shows you care and adds a touch of rustic elegance to a cooking space.
For anybody who needs a bit more organization, why not make a simple valet tray with one-by-two sticks of poplar and a hardboard backing covered with fabric? It's perfect for keys, wallets and even a watch collection. You can create a functional and visually appealing valet tray.
Sometimes, the best gifts come from spending quality time with your favorite person. Create a plant stand with your family like we did using 1 ¼ inch dowel rods. My mom jumped into the world of power tools, and we shared a few cherished laughs in this process together.
Embrace the Season
So, as the holiday season approaches, embrace the change of the season and make it memorable. Create cherished gifts, decorate your home with joy and give from the heart. With The Home Depot by your side, this holiday season will be filled with love, laughter and the warmth of home. Happy holidays and let the festivities begin!
