You can put up Christmas stockings that will hold gifts for the whole family. You may label the socks with the names of your family members to make it easy to know where to put the gifts and to grab them Christmas morning. 

Decorating the House Exterior

With Christmas, just like any other holiday, the décor is not limited to the house's interior alone. You can come up with ideas that will show the world that the Christmas season is here. You can try out some of these following ideas to bring cheer to the exterior of your home: 

  • Put decorations on the windows - Your home windows need to be brightened by small wreaths in green and red color representing the Christmas season.
  • Have another Christmas tree at the front door - You can never have enough Christmas trees during this season.
  • Have a hearty wreath on the front door - Make a huge wreath with garlands to hang over the door.
  • Have foliage on the front door - Green foliage is one way to make your exterior home decorated.
  • Use fairy lights to make light displays - Fairy lights are a huge decorative item when it comes to Christmas. You can also fill the surroundings' trees for an amazing show.

Have some staged presents at the foot of the tree on the front door. You can build a snowman outside your home if you live in a place that snows. The snowman dresses in outfits following the Christmas colors. You can buy the fake deer and even a sleigh to put in your front yard if you want to go all out.

Places for Extra Christmas Flair in the Home

There are many places that you can add a Christmas touch to in the home like: 

  • On top of the fireplace - You can use the mantle to place Christmas wreaths if your home has a fireplace. Your Christmas stockings can hang there as well.
  • Dining table: The table can play a huge role in adding extra flair for Christmas. You can change and use Christmas-themed napkins, plates, and even glasses.
  • Cushion covers and sofa quilts - Such items with a Christmas theme on them can be used to add flair to the festive season.
  • Rugs – Some rugs have a Christmas theme that you can display in your home.
  • Candles - You can opt for candles that have the festive colors like red to brighten the table.

Christmas usually comes with a lot of nostalgia and self-reflection. It is the time of the year that most loved ones tend to leave what they are doing wherever they state and head home to be with family and friends. This makes the holiday special and anticipated by many. For most kids and adults alike, it is the time of the year apart from their birthdays to expect presents. Decorating usually brightens the home and the overall mood. So make it extra special.
