7 Ways To Decorate The Exterior Of Your Home For The Holidays

Are you looking for unique ways to decorate the exterior of your home for the holidays?

We have 7 great ways that you can add your flair to.

1. Christmas Tree​

Decorate your trees by adding lights and ornaments.

 

2. Christmas Lights

There are many places you can hang lights on your home. The eaves and the gables of the home are common places, but more and more people are wrapping them around columns, railings/fences, doors, and windows to make their home stand out.

  

3. Lawn Ornaments

There are many styles of lawn ornaments that look great on any lawn. More traditional lawn ornaments would consist of light-up figurines, for example, reindeer or Santa’s sleigh. More fun and unique lawn ornaments would be the blow-up Christmas decorations and oversized Christmas ornaments.

  

4. Front Porch

Depending on the size of your porch the possibilities are endless, which will have people saying “wow”. Garland and tinsel around the front door and or railings, wreaths or letters on the front door (see below for ideas), red bows, planters, ornaments hanging from the porch, holiday wooden signs, and more – see front porch pictures.

 

5. Front Door

Whether you’re looking for a traditional style wreath or a themed style wreath, there are endless possibilities – see wreath pictures.

    

 

6. Planters

Having planters of greenery around your home is an easy and simple way to decorate. All you need is any pot you would like, some greenery (real or fake ), and you can add in your own ornaments or bows for a pop of colour. Take one step further and paint a terra cotta planter to look like a snowman, Santa, or even a reindeer.

 

7. Wooden Signs

Wooden signs for the front door are a very popular décor idea. If you have the time you can easily create your own outdoor rustic wooden sign, or purchase one through a small business within your community.
