This Christmas season, we're aiming to spread as much holiday cheer as we can—and one spot in the home we're not overlooking is on our windows. Who said they can't be let in on the jolly fun?
While Christmas decor typically finds its place along the tree, tables, and shelves, windows provide an area where decorations can be seen by all, inside and out.
If you think Christmas window decorations stop at the traditional wreath, prepare to think again. Here are 46 fun and festive Christmas window decorating ideas to try this year.
Bows are another longstanding traditional Christmas icon, but their placement isn't limited to the Christmas tree. Place big bows along the exterior of your home's windows to up the feel of the holiday and welcome one of the seasonal colors into your outdoor Christmas decoration display.
Christmas bows can be placed on the windows by themselves or accompany a wreath, as seen in the picture above.
String lights are a year-round decorative piece that certainly has its place along your window in the Christmas season. The warm glow provides the right amount of ambiance you can drape from the corners of your windows or line the trim.
Unsure of what to do with your Christmas cards? Instead of throwing them in the trash or hanging them on the fridge, turn them into a DIY garland. This simple approach to Christmas window decor is quick and easy—all you need is string and clothes pins.
Drape your garland material of choice from one window corner to the other before hanging it with the clothes pins as seen in the picture above. Not only is this a unique placement for your Christmas cards, but it makes them functional as budget-friendly decor pieces.
