Blew is a sophomore at the University of Arizona majoring in journalism. She said that decorating for Christmas was always a tradition growing up and she wanted to bring that tradition to her Tucson apartment.
“Quarantine kind of sucks and it’d be nice to have some spirit. We started with Halloween, that’s when we decided we needed to bring some spirit into our house. And Halloween turned into Thanksgiving and turned into Christmas, and so we’ve just kept it alive,” Blew said.
