Christmas Bows:
Timeless Holiday Elegance
Choosing the right Christmas bow can elevate your holiday decorations from good to great. When selecting a bow for your wreath, aim for one that's approximately one-third the size of the wreath itself – this proportion creates a visually pleasing balance. If you're adorning windows with festive bows, opt for suction cup hooks or specially designed adhesive hooks for easy, damage-free installation and removal. For outdoor displays, durability is key. Weather-resistant materials like polyester or nylon are your best bet, as they can withstand the elements while maintaining their vibrant appearance throughout the season. By considering these factors – size, attachment method, and material – you can ensure your Christmas bows add that perfect touch of holiday cheer to your decorations, both inside and out.
with perfectly placed Christmas bows.
Before installation, shape your bow using its internal wire, assembling puff bows if needed. Choose bow sizes proportional to your decorations: half the wreath's diameter, 15"-18" for garlands, and smaller sizes for large trees. For windows, use outdoor-rated suction cups or command hooks. Mantel bows (15"-24") can be secured with command hooks, while stair banisters welcome 15"-18" bows attached via the provided wire. Outdoor installations on fences or posts may require zip ties or bungee cords for extra security. Most bows come with attached, plastic-coated wire for easy, scratch-free installation on various surfaces. After the season, store bows in waterproof bins, disassembling puff bows for flat storage. With these tips, you'll create stunning bow accents that perfectly complement your Christmas displays, both indoors and out.

You love how your house looks at Christmas. You do not love climbing a ladder every November and every January to make it happen. That is exactly why permanent Christmas lights are catching on across Fort Wayne. So how do they work, what do they cost, and are they worth it?
We train lighting pros nationwide, so here is the straight answer. Permanent Christmas lights are custom LED tracks installed once along your roofline. They stay up all year, hidden in daylight, and you control them from an app. For homeowners who decorate every year, they usually pay for themselves in a few seasons. Here is the full picture.
A pro installs a low-profile channel along your roofline and eaves. Inside are individually controlled LED points. During the day the track blends into your trim and disappears. At night you open an app and pick warm white for the holidays, red and green for Christmas, orange for Halloween, or team colors for game day. No ladder, ever again.
Permanent lighting is a bigger upfront investment than seasonal install, because it is a one-time custom system built for your home. Most Fort Wayne homes land in the low thousands, depending on how much roofline you cover. The trade is simple. You pay once instead of paying for install and takedown every single year, and you get a system you use for far more than Christmas.
| Seasonal install | Permanent lights | |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | Every year | Once |
| Ladder work | Twice a year | Never |
| Uses | Christmas | Every holiday, year round |
| Best for | Trying it out | Decorating every year |
If you decorate every single year, yes. Add up what you spend on seasonal install and takedown over three or four seasons and permanent lighting often comes out even or ahead, with none of the hassle. If you only light up once in a while, a seasonal install is the smarter spend.
