You’ve set up your tree, decorated the front lawn, and hung stockings on the mantlepiece. What now? Don’t overlook your timber double-glazed windows when it comes to Christmas decorating! Dressing your windows for Christmas can go a long way in tying in the rest of the home décor and can even be appreciated from the outside.
Decorating your home for Christmas doesn’t have to be expensive. Adding some simple ornaments or DIY crafts and repurposed items you find throughout the house can shift the mood of your home drastically and boost happiness. Even if your windows are the only thing you’re decorating this season, it is a quick and easy way to add a festive touch to any room without too much effort. We discuss the best Christmas window display ideas for your home to prepare you for this cheer season.
Complement fresh and traditional foliage wreaths with fir cones, dried oranges, and cinnamon sticks for a gorgeous woody and festive aroma. Alternatively, you can customise a wreath to suit your desired style with plenty of unconventional ideas like felted, dried flowers, and mistletoe options.
Adorn your Christmas window with a string of Christmas cards, lights, baubles, or little cut-outs of adorable gingerbread men. Craft homemade garlands from dried flowers and fruits for a homier and more rustic vibe that can lend a subtle fragrance to the air.
Stickers are an easy and fuss-free way to decorate your windows for Christmas. High-quality weatherproof snowflakes and reindeer motifs made from vinyl will allow you to reuse them yearly. You can also place them outside, allowing more space for decorating the interior with other ideas. Stained glass prism stickers will offer great privacy and catch the sun gorgeously, projecting rainbows into your home during the day.
From an attention-drawing large centrepiece to a collection of tiny knick-knacks, ornaments for Christmas windows can be as simple or as complex as you wish. Hang baubles, DIY origami, or a fairy light curtain to add a delicate and subtle glow, perfect for mood lighting.
Can’t seem to find a Christmas window decorating idea you resonate with? Why not create your decorations? Not only are chalk pens an affordable and easy way to display your creativity, but you can also remove them easily with a quick wipe. The beauty of this method is that the options are limitless; draw Santa riding a dinosaur off into battle or a giant gingerbread cookie attacking a city. Express yourself however you wish, get the kids involved, and have a drawing session with the whole family!
You can be as excessive or minimalistic as you’d like; the sky is the limit with creative Christmas window decorations. Atlas Glass ensures your glass windows look good and perform well in any condition, keeping your home cool in summer and warm in winter.
