Here are some tips to keep you and your family's home safe during the holidays:
1. Be sure to use indoor lights indoor, and outdoor lights outdoors!
2. When using ladders for decorating always have someone there with you in case there is an accident.
3. Be careful with candles, keep them away from the tree, gifts and any holiday decorations that are highly flammable. Also be sure to trim the wicks so the flame doesn't get too high.
4. Don't overload the tree with too many decorations and lights, it could tip over!
5. Always take care of your fireplace and never leave fires unattended.
6. If it snows, try to keep the walkway clear and put down salt so that no one falls.
7. As far as holiday plants go, holly and mistletoe are great to decorate with, but remember that they are poisonous! Keep them high up and away from pets and children. Poinsetta's are not poisonous, so no worries there.
