Christmas decorations are so popular that some people never get around to putting them away. Country Livingmagazine has compiled a book of tips and ideas for using all those accumulated ornaments and found items on trees, furniture, and walls. Except for a chapter of recipes for baked goods, there are few projects, just page after page of photos and suggestions. A good selection for public libraries needing more holiday material.
