Deck the Pool With Boughs of Holly...

Cailley Hammel Headshot

When December rolls around each year, we start to think about decking the halls with garland, ornaments and twinkling lights. And while adding tinsel to the Christmas tree is always a delight, we at AQUA realized something: Why not decorate the pool, too?

Sure, some of us have to cope with a winterized pools during the holidays, but those of you lucky enough to live in climes where pool season never ends might find some of your customers getting extra creative with their outdoor space.

Case in point: the below pool, which is owned by Texas-based Bob Carroll and his family. You'll see (artificially) snowy waterfalls, ornaments hung on nearby plantings, fun lighting effects and even a special wreath just for the pool.

The pool itself was built by Charles and Merry Wise of Wise Pools. Interestingly, as Charles and his team built the pool, Carroll and his son, Jonathan, found the process fascinating β€” so much so that they bought the business from the Wises. Now that's what we call tidings of great joy.

Take a look at the slideshow to get in the holiday spirit. Today is our last e-news until 2015 β€” we'll see you then.

From all of us at AQUA, Merry Christmas.
