EN: to adorn; to decorate
This is what you do to your condo unit before Christmas, or what your tita does to her living room with all those ceramic figurines. It's the act of adding 'bling' or 'palamuti' to something to make it look extra. Think of it as bedazzling a place or an object.
From Spanish "adorno" (ornament) + Tagalog suffix "-han".
The '-han' suffix makes it a locative verb, indicating the object or place where the action (adorning) is performed.
