Deck the Halls Without Hidden Toxins By Jenna Sims
From handmade decorations to the safest plants, discover how to fill your home with holiday cheer—the natural way. The first glimmer of holiday magic is often felt once the music starts playing and the decorations go up: stockings hung by the fireside, a brightly lit tree, the smell of pine cones and gingerbread, you name it. Before you open your box labeled “holiday decor” or go to the store to buy more ornaments, consider how safe your go-to decorations are for your family’s health (adults, children, and pets). Unfortunately, many conventional holiday decorations contain toxins like lead, phthalates, or pesticides that can act as endocrine disruptors with varying health risks, especially for young kids. Here are our best tips for how to decorate for the holidays in the healthiest way.
