November 26, 2024

Christmas really is the most magical time of the year.

With so many of us putting up our trees by December 1st this year, you might be wondering what else can add a little extra Christmas cheer to your home.

Don’t forget the festive potential of decorating your windows and doors—they’re perfect for spreading holiday magic beyond just the tree and fireplace!

Read on for top ideas to bring Christmas charm to your windows and doors.

Take wreath inspiration from the US 

As you welcome more guests into your home this Christmas season, you’ll want to make a memorable first impression. While a wreath on the front door is a classic touch, why not take it a step further?

In the US, it’s popular to add wreaths to both windows and doors—The Irish are also known for their love of grand holiday decor, and Christmas is no exception.

Placing matching wreaths with red bows on each window creates a beautiful, coordinated look that shines from both inside and outside your home.

Add twinkling lights

Embrace the festive spirit by filling your home with all kinds of glowing lights.

Drape fairy lights, place lanterns, and arrange candles around your doors and windows. Lighting an advent candle each night can also become a fun, heartwarming tradition.

Decorating windows and doors with lights is an affordable way to bring the cozy warmth of the season into your home.

Add ornaments to windowsills

You’ve likely gathered a variety of festive knick-knacks, snow globes, and Christmas ornaments over the years.

From a handmade Father Christmas crafted by your children to a classic Nativity scene, adorning your windowsills with these decorations is always a great idea.

For an elegant touch, consider adding poinsettias to your windowsills. These beautiful plants are a symbol of Christmas and will brighten up your space beautifully.
