Christmas is the perfect time to decorate your home. Decorations add warmth and festive cheer, and create an inviting atmosphere. While the Christmas tree is the most important element in most homes, it’s important to also remember to decorate your interior and exterior for a show-stopping effect. Windows and doors are some of the elements that can truly stand out when decorated properly. See some of our stunning ideas to help make your windows and doors shine this Christmas.
Twinkling Christmas Lights Around Windows
Fairy lights are probably the most popular Christmas decorations. By wrapping them around window frames you can create a warm, festive ambiance. If you like elegant minimalism, use soft white lights or choose multi-coloured lights for a more cheerful and bold look. You can also wrap some tinsel around the lights or hang some mini baubles for a fuller look.
Christmas Wreaths on Windows and Doors
A classic Christmas wreath can make a bold statement. You can hang one on the front door for a warm welcome or add smaller wreaths to your windows for a coordinated look. If you are a fan of tradition, opt for a pine wreath decorated with berries and tartan ribbons. For more contemporary look, you can use eucalyptus, some dried fruit or even fresh flowers.
Window Candles
Candles are great for creating cosy, warm atmosphere. You can place one in each window or line them up on your windowsills for along with some mini potted Christmas trees. If you have kids or pets, opt for battery operated or flameless candles as they are a safer option and can be set on a timer, making them perfect for adding warmth and charm without the worry of real flames.
DIY Winter Scene on Windows
For a personalised touch, create a DIY winter scene on your windows using paper cut outs, stickers or felt. Snowflakes, trees and stars can be easily cut and arranged into a winter-themed display. This is also a really fun project to involve kids in and it can be enjoyed by the whole family.
