East End, Long Island Holiday Safety Tips

Now that Thanksgiving is here, I find myself planning for lights in and around the house.

While the prospect of getting on a ladder to clip lights on the exterior of the house is not an endeavor to be relished, furthest from my mind were the safety elements of such a traditional endeavor.

I guess we’re lucky that no one has used the wrong ladder, or taken a spill!

In addition to the physical exhertion that requires care, the following article is demonstrative the awareness that we all should keep in mind over the course of the season:

Here’s to a safe and happy decorating season. Still not sure if the lights requiring a ladder will find their way up this year…

If you are in the process of selling your home, a spotlight on the sign might be nice (they can be found in different colors) but in some cases, less is more. Unlit lights, visible in daylight, tend to be a bit less attractive than a night time display. Additionally, taking care to place inside decorations in such a way as to keep the space itself from feeling cramped might offer a bit more to potential buyers seeking to visualize themselves in your home.

Sometimes, a little less can be a whole lot more…
