Shore Bluff Realty’s ideas for Christmas home décor have the power to impress your houseguests and spruce up any space, no matter what size or style it is.

Elevate your interior space with festive decorations and Shore Bluff Realty’s ideas for Christmas home décor:


1. Decorate the Outside of Your Home with Garlands – Garlands are a fun, easy and charming way of adding the Christmas spirit to the exterior of your home. You can also incorporate Christmas lights into the garlands to emerge your luminously festive home throughout the neighborhoods of Madison.

2. Christmas Wreath DIY – Nothing screams, “Holiday spirit!” like a fresh, evergreen Christmas wreath. Creating your own Christmas wreath from scratch is actually more straightforward than you may think. All you need is some foliage, twine, a grapevine wreath, and your choice of whatever other holiday accents that you’d like to add; berries, twigs, pinecones, ribbons, herbs, and more. The grapevine wreath will act as your foundation while the foliage and holiday accents will bring out the Christmas spirit in the décor.

3. Fireplace Garland – What better way to dress up your fireplace than with a decorative, holiday garland? A fireplace already looks the part on its own; it’s cozy, elegant and intimate. By adding a garland to your fireplace, it will awaken the room and liven up the holiday mood even more.

4. Flower Poinsettia Accents – The ultimate flowers for Christmas, poinsettias are easy to incorporate in the holiday decorations throughout your home. Their crimson hue adds to any styled home to enhance the overall, holiday ambiance.

5. Ribbons on Christmas Tree – Incorporating ribbons and ornaments on your Christmas tree will heighten the holiday spirit throughout your home. Like most of the holiday decorations that we have already mentioned, adding ribbons on Christmas trees is quick and easy. Buy the colored ribbon that you’d like, trim it into 3 to 4-foot pieces, and tie them onto your Christmas tree in desired areas. We have just one warning: don’t overdo it with the ribbons. Less is more because it can get tacky real fast.

6. Match the Porch Christmas Lights to the Porch Flower Pots – Everyone appreciates decorative coordination. Boost the holiday spirit of your home’s exterior by matching the Christmas lights on your porch with a couple, outdoor flower pots. We prefer to place two, large flower pots on either side of the front door to invite your guests with a jolly, Christmas mood.

7. Holiday Dining Room Table – Some people love to house large, extravagant dining room tables that make you wonder, “How many people do they even know?” Whether they are big or small, dining room tables can be challenging to decorate for the holidays. What do I put on the table? Am I supposed to set the entire table even if it isn’t being used? Should I change out the holiday decorations on the table every day? Shore Bluff Realty suggests that you set the table with silverware and glassware for when you are using the table, otherwise, holiday candles, a holiday table runner, Christmas tablecloth, poinsettias in an elegant flower pot are just enough to spruce up your holiday dining room table.

8. Decorate with Christmas Cards – Personalize your holiday home décor with the Christmas cards that you have received that year. Cut a piece of soft leather into a strip and staple your Christmas cards to it. Hang the strip of cards with a small nail at the top and hide the nail by knotting the leather over the nail. Removing the cards is simple so you can reuse the leather each year, plus it’s a unique way to decorate your home for the holidays!
