\u201cI’m totally the decorate early, start listening to Christmas songs super early’ guy. I’ve just always been that way.\u201d<\/strong><\/em> – Drake Bell<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After Halloween’s costumes and Thanksgiving turkey, we enjoy the most looked forward to time of the year. The holiday season is a time for love and family. Decorating your house is one of the best ways to get in the holiday spirit. How you choose to decorate is a reflection of your creativity and style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These Christmas decorating ideas will help you get started. You could have one approach to the outside of your home and then another for the interior. You could even have different themes for each room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps you have a peppermint candy land in your kitchen, a white winter theme in your dining room, and a rustic country Christmas in your living room. So, how will you decorate your home this Christmas?<\/p>\n\n\n

1. DIY Christmas Decorating Ideas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you love to decorate and are a creative type, why not have an alternative tree this year? You could build your own tree out of wood, metal wire, or fabric. These require a lot of creativity and artistic ability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not all of us are willing to put in this kind of effort. So why not DIY your ornaments and other decor. You could melt candy canes into shapes, drill holes, and hang them on your tree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gather pine cones and paint them to look like Christmas trees. Or leave them natural for a rustic look. Give them a bit of sparkle by applying glitter to just their tips and edges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another idea is to DIY your tree topper. This Christmas craft can be simple, yet make a big impact. Build a star from sticks, an old box, pipe cleaners, sheet music, toilet paper rolls, felt, wooden dowels, or anything else you can think of. Once you build your star shape, paint it a gold or silver color and add glitter to make it sparkle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Foyer Decorating Ideas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The foyer is the entryway into your home. It\u2019s the perfect place to welcome people into your home and express your passion for the holiday season. Start with a Christmas wreath on the front door<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You could also hang one on the wall just inside your front door. An evergreen wreath is perfect for creating beautiful decor and creating a natural smell of evergreen in your home. Place a Christmas themed doormat for people to clean their shoes on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have a larger foyer, set up a pencil tree in an empty corner. These trees have a smaller circumference at their base. The tree won\u2019t take up too much room, and you have an extra tree to decorate!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Homes with stairs typically have the staircase within sight of the foyer. Hang garland on the stair rail. Then place a few Christmas themed decorative items and candles on the console table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Christmas Tree Decoration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Candles are the traditional Christmas tree decoration. This is a fire hazard and not recommended today. You could buy faux candles for a classic look. Another traditional option is ball ornaments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glass ornaments are delicate and beautiful but present a risk of shattering should they fall off your tree. This makes them not a great option if you have pets or children. Modern shatterproof versions are a popular Christmas tree decorating idea because of this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the Christmas season is about coming together as a family, why not make some of your tree ornaments? You could buy a kit from the craft store or make your own from scratch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modern Christmas decor is a great idea if you enjoy the minimalist look. Keep your tree decorations to a minimum. Aim for a monochromatic look with various shades of a single color. Add visual interest and definition with textures and ornament size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
