Christmas:our decoration ideas for the house

Christmas decoration starts at the front door

To warmly welcome your visitors, and immediately put them in the Christmas spirit, opt for a door hanger. You can choose a ready-made tree wreath, or make this Christmas decoration yourself by buying a straw wreath that you can decorate with small pieces of fabric, sequins, small decorative objects or, why not, candies or feathers, juju hat style?

The essential Christmas decoration:the tree

When we think of Christmas decoration, we necessarily think of the tree. You traditionally have the choice between the natural tree and the artificial tree, and you have surely already chosen your camp in the matter. But be aware that there are also many other styles of Christmas trees possible, for example the metal tree, the stick-on tree that you can stick on and take off at will, the lighted garland-style tree, the magnet tree with place on a magnetic surface... So many original ways to revisit this great classic!

Christmas decorations for the house:choose your basic color

For a successful Christmas decoration, the good idea is to opt for one or two basic colors and to decline them. Red and green are of course the traditional colors of Christmas:they will always have their effect, and the whole family, especially the children, will appreciate. Want a little more chic and elegant decor? Opt for an all-white house, with a white Christmas tree, white Christmas decorations... There's nothing like recreating a snowy landscape. For an even warmer and more festive decoration, you can also opt for gold or silver. In small touches or in total look, it's up to you!
