During the winter, people look forward to celebrating their holiday traditions.
People who celebrate Christmas are getting into the festivities by decorating the interior and exterior of their houses, with some even going as far as to decorate their cars!
Yet, there are some people who are in a little bit of a predicament. They want a fun festive-looking house, but they don’t know where to start. Well, you found just the right place!
Finding inspiration
When it comes to Christmas decorating, there are many themes and esthetics that you can go for. We recommend using Pinterest to explore these different themes and get inspiration.
You can go for a more fancy and modern look using white and gold decorations. A Christmas tree adorned with pretty gold and white ornaments (and a matching wreath), fake snow, white Christmas stockings, and elegant white lights on the roof of the home.
If you want to go for a more classic, vintage Christmas vibe, you can go for red, green, and gold decorations. For the tree ornaments, use classic Christmas colors and random vintage ornaments. It will really add to the fun childlike feel. Do you have old ornaments that you no longer use? Well, this aesthetic will be perfect for you! You can also use multicolored lights, nutcrackers, red Christmas stockings, and, of course, a wreath that matches the tree.
There are many other vibes that you can go for too. Just explore and see what suits your taste best.
Indoor decor ideas
Having nice indoor decorations other than the Christmas tree is important as well. Some decor you can add to the inside of your home is: a nice festive tablecloth, holiday scented candles/wall plug-ins, Christmas pillows/plushies, and a Christmas advent calendar.
You can get Christmas themed wallflower plug-ins and candles from Bath and Body Works. You can find every other item we recommend at Walmart and Target as well.
How to enhance your outdoor decor
Outdoor decor is really important for Christmas. The first thing that you see is the outside of your home, so you want to make it look the best it can be by going all out. Of course, Christmas lights are a necessity. If you want to make your home look extra merry and bright, you can put lights on your roof, bushes, and trees you have outside.
Inflatable Christmas decorations are another fun way to spruce up your house. There are a lot of options to choose from, and you can find them at almost any store, and you can reuse them every year. You can even get an inflatable of your favorite character and make that character your theme. Buying lighted statues is also an option. They also have a wide selection to choose from. They look good during the day and night.
Less Expensive Options
Places like Dollar Tree have good holiday decorations for less money than some of the bigger stores. They have cute outdoor signs that you can buy that are pretty sturdy and last a while. A few other cheaper options for decor are places like Target, Walmart, Marshalls, Ross, and Dollar General. Michaels is another good place to buy decorations. It’s a little pricier but if you have a coupon or there’s a sale going on, you can get a really good deal.
Now that you have all the advice you need, you can now start decorating your home!
