"The lead worker did well. But the assistant broke our DirtDevil vacuum when he dropped it down the stairs to the cement garage floor. This was an unexpected cost to us. I would recommend they buy and use their own cleaning equipment in the future. They did not even have a broom to sweep with."

In June 2014, with the help of very supporting friends, we launched a new line of paper notecards that was aimed at raising awareness and money for Homelessness, which affects communities worldwide. We see many different types of causes on a global basis, and while these causes are certainly worthy and needed, we recognize there are also serious needs right here in our own backyard. Through our artistically-created and handcrafted cards, we hope to contribute to a new awareness of people whose experiences of abuse, single motherhood, human-trafficking, homelessness, or prison would otherwise remain silenced. We are dedicated to showing respect and heart to these individuals so they may know pride and dignity in their lives. It is with this deep care and consideration that the products of Woven Journey will always be created—they will be honoring of their intended purpose always.

Professional holiday decorating services cost about $1,500 on average, with prices ranging from $300 to $2,500 and more. The total price tag depends on the type and amount of decorating requested, along with additional cost factors like your home’s location, materials, and labor.

Christmas tree decoration: $200–$600
Interior holiday design and decoration: $50–$200 per hour
Holiday landscaping: $50–$100 per hour
If you need help with your holiday decorating, the first step is determining your lighting and decor needs to narrow down your pro options. For example, if you want a custom outdoor light display with all of the bells and whistles, you’ll likely need to hire a local holiday light installer who specializes in that service. But if you only need to hang some lights inside in hard-to-reach places, consider hiring a handyperson or an interior decorator instead. It’s best to contact at least three different companies for quotes and to find out what services they offer.
The cost to install holiday lights averages about $425, ranging from $220 to $675, depending on the type of lights and installation location.
High roofs: $3.50–$6 per linear foot

Considering the pros and cons of hiring a professional holiday light installer can help you decide if it’s right for you. Here are some advantages and disadvantages:
