Christmas has a sound-it's in the carols, friendly greetings and overall undercurrent of joyfulness. Simply put, it's a magical time of the year. Glitter, sparkle and all things fabulous takes precedence during this season; you are not looking to waste this opportunity now would you? You probably have planned every last mistletoe and glitter in your home; but have you mapped out your front yard yet? It's time to roll up our sleeves and get into the business of fun with awesome outdoor Xmas decorations.
Let's get down to it then. Are you ready to be challenged? Are you willing to go beyond your limits for the best yuletide home yet? Are you up for it? Then invite your little children to take part of this special project. Now don't go backpedalling on me now, you will be surprised at their creativity and eagerness to help make a beautiful home with you. It is well worth the little stubbornness and impracticality that makes children such adorable and exasperating creatures.
Think of a cohesive theme to tie all of your outdoor Xmas decorations on. You can go for the always classic and moving Nativity scene in a softly lit backdrop of your lawn. Cut out and set up beautifully done pictures of the Holy Family, shepherds, wise men and angels for all to see. You will be instrumental is giving the passersby an opportunity to stop and think about the true meaning of Christmas.
How about Santa Claus and his pet reindeers stealthily landing on your roof? If the roof is too high, bring Santa down in your lawn and create an abbreviated version of North Pole complete with cute toy making elves. Include blue, white and silver ornamented trees with tin icicles on the tips of the branches-christmas tree themes are always interesting to set up outdoors.
If you have a neighborhood with relatively well-behaved kids (people have mocked me for this oxymoron but I continue to believe), design one or more outdoor trees with edible accessories hanging about it. Garlands of popcorn and cranberry, candy canes, colorfully wrapped treats-drape them attractively around the tree. Only keep in mind to space your lighting well-burnt food on charred needle pines do not make a festive look.
If you are adventurous, then by all means go whichever way the holiday wind takes you. Seriously, the more unexpected the better! Consider neon and glow in the dark pink, green and yellow miniature christmas trees strewn all around your lawn. If that's a little too much, have black and white christmas tree. Unless you're going for a jailbird motif, make it as sparkly as you can. Do quirky and hang house things on a tree. Put hooks on spoons, forks, door knobs, little ketchup bottles, etc. and get a few laughs from visiting friends and passersby.
The stressful year is coming to a close; so close the door with a bang! Let this Christmas infuse you with childlike delight in simple joys like beautiful outdoor Xmas decorations. It might be just what you need to start the next year with renewed vigor and excitement. Have a fun and playful Christmas!
