Christmas Wreath or Garland
A Christmas Wreath is a nice welcoming touch to put on your front door for guests arriving at your house, or even to welcome you home after a hard day, reminding you that Christmas is not far away.
The shape and make up of the wreath have particular meaning for Christmas, with the circular shape (that is, having no beginning and no end) representing eternity. Wreaths are generally made from greenery that is available at Christmas time (Winter in the Northern hemisphere) and this represents growth and everlasting life, because the greenery comes from evergreen plants, those that do not lose their greenery or leaves in the winter time.
Of course, many people do not have time to make their own wreaths these days and many natural purchased wreaths can look faded and dry by the end of the Christmas holiday, especially if you like to start Christmas early, so an artificial wreath can be a great buy, remaining fresh and welcoming throughout the holiday and available ready for next year too!
Other external Christmas decorations can include artificial lighted Poinsettia trees to sit against your wall. If you have ever tried keeping real poinsettias, you will know that it is very difficult to keep the leaves a bright red color, so these poinsettia trees, rising from a golden urn (included) provide a great and easy welcome to Christmas. They plug into an AC outlet.
Of course, it wouldn’t be Christmas without at least some semblance of snow. While some people live in climates that never see snow from one year to the next, others may be snowed in for four or five months at a time. No matter whether you are in a snowy climate or a warm one, it’s fun to decorate your house with a snowflake theme and you can choose to put glittery snowflake clings on your window or even to project rotating snowflake lights over your house at night, from waterproof LED lights, using an adaptor.
You can put different kinds of decorations inside your house too, with kitchen appliance handle covers, so it’s not just your house that is decorated but your kitchen too.
