Christmas is a magical time of year when we can come together to show our appreciation for our loved ones with good food, presents, entertainment, and of course, plenty of laughs. Aside from the relentless eating and present opening, one of the most fun parts of Christmas is decorating your home for the festive season.
With grand Christmas trees that touch the ceiling and glistening decorations that adorn the branches, finding inventive ways of decorating your home is fun for all the family. However, have you ever considered furnishing your windows with Christmas decorations?
Windows are the eyes of the home, so where’s a better place to decorate to communicate your unique take on festivities to all those who pass by? We think windows offer a unique opportunity to spread a little Christmas cheer to anyone out for a quick stroll, on their way to work or walking their dog. To find out some of the best ideas for Christmas window decorating, keep reading!
One of the easiest ways to spread a little festive cheer is to place ornaments nearby to your windows. Whether you’ve got spare Christmas snow globes or a nativity scene that is just too stunning not to use, ornaments are a great way to draw attention and captivate bypassers.
Consider using your window ledge as a makeshift stand for your ornaments and scatter small electric tea lights around your ornaments to create a festive scene for all!
Frosted glass decals are a great way to give the illusion of a frosty Christmas morning! If you’re not likely to experience a white Christmas this year, frosted decals give the illusion of snow piling up on your windows and snowflakes sticking to the panes.
This can be an especially fun activity for children who can get creative with their frosted designs. You can find window-safe snow spray in many home stores or by using frosted glass stickers to stick to the corners of your window to transform your home into Santa’s Grotto.
Instead of letting your Christmas cards pile up in your recycling this year, why not create some festive buntings and garlands out of them?
Most Christmas cards come with stunning pictures, drawings and scenes on the front, so creating a decorative garland to drape across your window is an excellent way to put these materials to good use. You can simply drape a piece of string across your window and slot your folded-in-half cards onto the string with the decorative side facing towards your window.
Alternatively, why not cut out the prettiest parts of your cards and create a stunning garland that captivates all who see it?
You can never go wrong with a string of lights, so why not use them inside instead of getting the ladder out of the garage and scaling your home to hang them up? You can buy waterfall lights that light up your street and provide the perfect festive look to your home.
Alternatively, you can opt for simple string lights to border your windows. You can also use lights in your window to provide a border to your centrepiece garland or festive scene, making your stunning decorations more visible to bypassers.
If you’ve ever passed by a storefront at this time of year, you’ll know that many retailers make use of red ribbons to create festive designs. Why not take inspiration and create ribbon cascades or mini garlands for your windows?
You can use ribbons in the corners of your windows, creating mini wreaths with cascading or curled ribbons that drapes down the length of the window. These provide the perfect border for any other ornaments or decorations you choose to include in your window display!
