The season is upon us when all kinds and levels of decorations explode in many manifestations and locations.

These expressions are most often based on emotional decorations and not intellectual design concepts.

All of which is good in that the season is to be more one of joy than a mental project.

Enjoy and express your personal style as fits you and the occasions you celebrate.

The elements and principles of design are still in effect regardless of what you do. You may want to keep such in mind if such appeals to you.

The ultimate goals should be expressing what is significant and meaningful for you.

Be yourself and appreciate and enjoy the season!

Food for thought.
