   A proper reply would be: F@#K OFF, Witch-lady!  When I want to decorate with "it's none of your business", I'll look you up for advice.

   I would tell her that her comments are offensive and that you are not confused about who you serve. Where you understand her concern, you find her comments about her lack of knowledge on the decorations in your home to come off as a little disrespectful. Another thing that seems to work is using analogies to make her see that she may have things in her home that could be misunderstood as idoltry as well and give examples. Usually after using this tactic people begin to think differently and open their minds.
