Christmas Decorations

The purpose for decorating at
Christmas time is to provide an atmosphere that will
make all your friends and family feel warm, cheerful and
most of all welcome in your home. With this in mind the
first place to start is the outside of your front door.
One idea is to drape a lush 9 foot strand of real or
Artificial Pine Garland around the top of the door and
let the ends hang on either side. Either type of Garland
can be lit with Mini Lights or C7, C9 Outdoor Lights or
a combination. You can easily hang Shatterproof Ornament
Balls by using some green floral wire. You might also
want to add some small floral picks with holly berries
or other types of red berries or even some snow frosted
greenery picks. Adding a couple strands of Iridescent
White Berry Spray will add the effect of glistening
snow. Velvet Ribbon bows add a nice touch of color and
are easy to make.
If you prefer the look of a Wreath hanging on your front
door, they can be just as easily purchased online in
either real Pine or Artificial Christmas Wreath styles.
If you have a double door you can purchase one for each
door or one that will separate when one door opens. If
you choose one that separates just make sure if you
light it or use ribbon that you don’t run either all the
way around the wreath. Add smaller Wreaths of identical
style to each of your front windows. You only need to
decorate these with a Velvet Ribbon Bow. Wreaths can be
lit with Battery Operated Lights, small Mini Lights, C7
or C9 Lights or a combination. Wreaths can be decorated
much the same way as Garlands. Just remember that a
little green floral wire will make your job much easier
and more enjoyable. If you have a theme for your
Decorations inside your home, such as why not introduce
it on your front door by adding Nutcracker Ornaments to
your Garland and a small Nutcracker to the inside of
your Artificial Christmas Wreath.
Decorating Your Front
Yard.
Another fun way to add some
Christmas Sparkle to the front of your home is to
decorate the pathway or sidewalk leading to your front
door. Use C9 lights which come in a variety of colors,
attached to hard plastic Yard Stakes. This forms a fence
like effect. As well as a range of colors to choose
from, you can also choose whether the lights will
twinkle or not. There are several styles of Luminaries
you can choose from which cover the C9 lights and give a
reflection of snowmen, angels or Christmas trees to name
a few. There are even Snowmen or Large Nutcrackers or
Toy Soldiers that you can use to line your pathway or
stand beside your door to greet your guests. Your lawn
can easily be decorated with Halographic Yard Art. These
come in everything from Disney characters to Santa,
Rudolph and all the other traditional Christmas
characters. Don’t forget the Manger Scene that reminds
us all of the reason for our Christmas Celebration
