The holidays are on the horizon! Soon our schedules will be full with caroling appointments, buying presents and party planning. But before life gets busy and you start shopping for everyone else, we recommend you treat yourself with some Smart Home tech that will make your home more secure and bring some holiday cheer to the busiest time of the year.

Give your guests a warm Season’s Greetings and keep an eye on things.

Whether it’s carolers ringing the bell or party guests with freshly made eggnog, the Google Nest Doorbell is the perfect way to greet them from anywhere.

It automatically sends alerts to your phone when someone’s at or near the door and gives a live feed you can view from your device. It also has a built-in speaker so you can have a conversation in real time when someone arrives. Plus, it’s a great way to keep an eye on packages. You’ll receive an alert when they arrive at your front door and they’ll be more secure until you can get to them.  

Plus if you’re looking for more security during the holiday season, there are a lot of great options out there for smart security cameras. Rain or shine, day or night, these devices will keep your home protected while you’re getting ready for the holidays or out enjoying them!

Smart lights: The best thing since Rudolph's nose.

For holiday parties or a cozy night with a cup of cocoa, lighting can make a huge difference by setting the vibe. Smart light bulbs are the best way to give you full control over the atmosphere of a room, and they’re inexpensive and super easy to use. Plus, they’re easy to install. All you have to do is screw them into an existing floor or table light.

You can either get a white bulb that’s dimmable or a full color smart light bulb that has millions of colors to choose from. Both options are long-lasting, save energy and let you set automated schedules, which is great for keeping energy bills low. Control them from your device or with voice commands using a combo of a Nest device and Google Assistant.

These are definitely an inexpensive and easy way to add a little holiday cheer — whether you’re setting them to the classic combo of red and green or maybe even the warm glow of a crackling fire!
