readorning

Adding fresh decorations

Readorning is adorning again—decorating or embellishing something anew after it was previously adorned: She spent the afternoon readorning the Christmas tree after the cat knocked off half the ornaments.

The word implies restoration of decoration or a fresh round of ornamentation.
