Decorating your house for the Holidays might seem like more work than play. But Good Housekeeping says you can make your holiday more festive with these decorations, like this beautiful Hanukkah menorah. </p> <p>First you start by placing a tapered candle in the center of your glass votive and then you fill it with aquarium gravel until the candle stands up; do that for eight candles. For your center candle, use a slightly larger vessel, a slightly taller tapered candle, and you do the same thing. And then you light, according to tradition. </p> <p>These festive glass ornaments can be filled with just about anything. </p> <p>We're gonna full ours with a spring of greenery right from the Christmas tree and some beads from this garland here, and you close it back up, and you hang it with some pretty ribbon, and voila. </p> <p>And these sparkling luminaries are fast and easy to make. </p> <p>You'll need 2 different colored paper bags and you'll need some scalloping scissors. </p> <p>Decorate the paper bags with a holepunch, then insert one colored paper bag into another bag, cutting the outer bag in half. To keep it safe, use LED lights inside the bags. I'm Terry Anzur for Good Housekeeping reports.
