Colorful Surprise

You don’t have to stick to the traditional Christmas colors of red and green. Try incorporating unconventional colors like fuchsia, teal, purple, and royal blue. An easy and innovative way to use these colors is by stuffing oversized lanterns filled with multicolored ornaments for a vibrant burst of seasonal cheer.

Welcoming Windows

Skip the outdated holiday window stickers and hang grapevine wreaths in each of your front windows for outdoor holiday décor with simple charm.

Have A Seat

Cozy up patio furniture with a throw blanket and pillows, then add a brilliantly lit evergreen tree to create an inviting outdoor seating area. When setting up a tree on your porch, swap the skirt for a sturdier basket that won’t blow away in the wind.

Dress up your existing outdoor furniture with holiday accents to create a wintry patio retreat. Buffalo checkered and reindeer pillows add a nice holiday theme. Include some sprigs of greenery and a wreath for some festive touches.

Gorgeous Greens

Top off the swag with faux berries and a festive red bow for an outdoor Christmas decoration that adds holiday curb appeal.

Holiday Spin

Everyday items can become festive outdoor holiday decorations with a bit of imagination. Wind vintage-style Christmas lights on an old bicycle to create a seasonal work of art.
