Who we are

Where Holiday Magic Meets Modern Design

At The Holiday Haus, we believe your home should feel just as magical on the outside as it does within. Our mission is simple — to bring joy, warmth, and effortless beauty to every home we touch.

Founded by Katie Thompson, a design-loving professional and mom of three, The Holiday Haus was born out of her passion for creating meaningful moments during the most wonderful time of the year. What began as a family tradition of decking the halls (and rooflines) soon evolved into a full-service holiday décor company dedicated to helping others experience the same magic — without the stress.

“As a mom, I’ve always loved seeing my kids’ faces light up when the house glows for the holidays.
Now, I get to bring that same joy to families across the DC area — with a little more sparkle and a lot less hassle.”

Our Approach

We combine thoughtful design with professional precision to deliver results that are both beautiful and lasting. Every detail — from the symmetry of your roofline lights to the texture of your garland — is intentionally chosen to complement your home’s architecture and your personal style.

Katie partners with a trusted professional contractor who brings the muscle (and the tall ladders!) to ensure each installation is safe, seamless, and perfectly executed. Together, they blend artistry and craftsmanship to create spaces that feel both luxurious and inviting.
