deck the halls
Adorn for Christmas
Deck the halls is to decorate a space festively, especially for Christmas.
The phrase comes from the traditional carol "Deck the Halls," where *deck* means to adorn or cover.
Now used broadly for any enthusiastic holiday decorating: Time to deck the halls—get the lights and ornaments.
