Outdoor Christmas Decor For Different Kinds of Homes
18:56
No matter whether you live in a house with a huge lawn or in a one-bedroom apartment, you will never run out of ideas on how to decorate your home in time for Christmas. With all the materials available and the ornaments you find in stores that are ready for use, there surely is an outdoor Christmas decor theme that will suit everyone's taste, budget, and space at home.
If you have a big lawn, big decors such as light sculptures are an example of very popular outdoor Christmas decor. It could be the lighted sculpture that depicts Santa on a sleigh with his sack of gifts; other common ones are those of choo choo trains in Christmas colors and of reindeer. These light sculptures are usually very huge and animated and are therefore surely to attract the attention of any passerby. If you have a small front yard though, a good way to put festive colors on your greens is to tie large bows around shrubs and dress up garden figurines if you have any. Be creative and have fun in “dressing up” your lawn; use Santa hats apart from bows, or even giant ribbons and other large, glittery ornaments.
Another way of decorating a big lawn in front of your house would be to set up strings of lights on poles, trees, lamp posts, even around fences. Basically everything on your lawn can be decorated with light strings, even shrubs and bushes. If you're living in a smaller space though and don't have a lawn to decorate, think of wrapping a string of lights around the ballisters of your balcony instead.
Speaking of smaller spaces, don't limit yourself to hanging plastic wreaths on your door this holiday season just because you don't have enough space to fill with ornaments. Instead, try to maximize the space on which you could put your decors and remember that outside of your home, there's always space to decorate. For example, think of tracing the outlines of your windows with lights of festive colors to get your neighbors (or even your landlord) in a festive mood.
Ever thought of painting your door another color? Why not? It's a very easy task and it's sure to make a big aesthetic difference come Christmas, especially when you have guests coming for the holidays. To accentuate your front door or the door to your apartment, handpick a wreath at your local florist's or, better, yet, make one yourself. (All you'd need are a circular frame and silk, plastic holly, and small ornaments with glitters for decoration.)
Live plants are another example of unique outdoor Christmas decor. With all of the artificial stuff that's out there, few people ever think of using live greens nowadays, which is another reason you should go for them. While you're at it, why not have more fun and set up your Christmas tree right outside, on the front porch or by the pathway to your doorstep. Just remember to choose weather-resistant lights and waterproof ornaments (toys, makeshift gifts, etc.) for your outdoor tree.
