Easy Christmas Decorations to Make for Your Front Door

As we move ever closer to Christmas, many of us will spend hours decorating the inside of our homes in Yorkshire but may not necessarily give much thought or time to the outside of our properties. 

Bingley Windows & Glass Co. Ltd offer three different Christmas decorations to make for your front door. The look of your door makes such an impression on anyone walking up to your house. So decorating it this Christmas will ensure that you impress the neighbours, family, and friends visiting. You’ll be in the Christmas mood the moment you walk up to your front path:

Wreaths

The first in our list of Christmas decorations to make for your door is a classic choice – a wreath. Undoubtedly, these look fantastic on your front door. Bringing a spark of festive spirit as you enter the house. Many people will buy one from a shop, but creating your own is great fun, straightforward, and allows you to create a design bespoke for your home.

For the base, you can opt for either foam or wire. Then take some boughs and place them around the frame to get an idea of the shape and placement. Once you are happy with the arrangement. Take each piece of foliage one by one and use the wire to tie them tightly to your frame, ensuring you don’t leave any gaps. You can either leave your wreath plain or decorate with ribbons, holly, baubles, and other festive paraphernalia.

Hanging Pine Cones

The next in our list of Christmas decorations to make yourself requires only a few supplies and can be put together really quickly. Collect four or five pine cones and, depending on your chosen festive colour scheme, paint them with gold, bronze, or silver paint. Use a small paintbrush to accent the edges with colour or spray them all over to make a big statement. Finish by choosing a festive ribbon or some simple string. Tie or glue these to each pinecone. Group them together to create a mobile and hang this on the front of your door.

Festive Frame

If you prefer a more subtle look for the outside of your home during the holiday period, our final suggestion might be the one for you. Festive frames are a great Christmas decoration to make for your front door. You can either use a cheap frame from a shop or recycle an old wooden frame that you have lying around the house. Spray the frame with eye-catching colours such as red or gold. Glue on holly and ivy along the borders, and place this in the centre of your door, around the knocker, or around the number plaque.
