When you were a child, did you once sit before your bedroom window, waiting for Santa Claus to bring you the gift you had been dreaming for?
Windows not only carry many hopes and expectations for kids, but also afford lots of opportunities for artistic and elegant decorative skills in holiday decorating.
Windows not only carry many hopes and expectations for kids, but also afford lots of opportunities for artistic and elegant decorative skills in holiday decorating.
If you get everything well-decorated for the holiday but leave out your windows, see if the following ideas can bring you some inspirations!
1. Build your sparkling windowsill garden
Windowsills, small or large, offer great possibilities for Christmas decorations. Just make a statement in your window with some seasonal greenery lighted with candles or sparkling string lights!
2. Go a little magical with lighted cut-outs
If window candles are a little too vintage for you, try a paper village or wild wonderland cutout for your holiday window. The glowing lights must be a welcoming sight for guests.
3. Create a festive atmosphere with light strings
Christmas isn’t Christmas till you light it up. So how about using a light curtain against a window for instant sparkle this holiday?
If you opt for minimalism lighting, just outline the window frame or hang a simple string of Christmas lights such as globe or glass jar lights.
4. Add a warm touch with photos and cards
Christmas, in its nature, is a holiday of love and care. If you find hanging those holiday ornaments troublesome, just forget them. Explore the true spirit of Christmas by putting up photos of family gatherings or cards from your loved ones along the window side. It will no doubt add a unique touch to your holiday windows!
Hanging with photo clip string lights is a great way to highlight the memory especially at night!
5. Go classy without being classic with DIY wreaths
Twinkle, twinkle, little wreaths. Traditional as they might be, wreaths are indispensable elements to complete your Christmas. Besides, there are still many ways that you can make this classic decor stand out!
Simple green wreaths that look awesome and don’t block all that light coming in the windows.
Shift from a traditional circle wreath to a square or heart-shaped one for a fresh look.
Or just try simple wire wreaths strung with starry lights.
6. Everything has 2 sides and so does your window!
If you get no place for window decoration inside your home, then just go outside! An outdoor window container filled with greens and red ribbons or berries could as well bring Christmas favor to your house in a moment!
No matter viewed from inside or outside, dropping a few string lights to the box will create unexpected fairy effect at night!
String lights with timer or remote control are more suitable given the convenience of lighting for upstairs window boxes.
7. Invite the smell of Christmas with kitchen elements
Kitchen, as a key setting for your Christmas dinner, of course requires some holiday favor. Differentiate your kitchen windows by hanging some baking gadgets or ginger cookies! It will also give your window a bakery or candy shop look!
8. Get fun with holiday stickers, clings or decors
If you get children around your house, decorate together with some holiday stickers, clings or decors, or just do a little bit of window painting with frost spray will definitely bring you a lot of fun.
