Festive adornments I believe e .g. Holly Branches.

But do not worry in the New year they will disappear and for a while the place will look drab.
I saw today, outside a green grocers. a small holly bush sawn off at the bottom . I thought what a waste because holly is not that fast a grower. A few years ago two ,ten foot holly trees full of berries in front of my stepson's house were stolen in daylight while they were out at work.
