If you’re ready to step up your reindeer game, check out these fun, creative, and easy themes for outdoor decor. We promise they’ll bring a smile to your face, not to mention everyone in the neighborhood! From faux snow to life-size sleighs to candy cane lanes, discover our most Santa-stopping ideas.
There’s something so magical about snow during the holidays. If you live in a climate where the chance of that is nil, these whimsical decorations can help you create your own white Christmas. An LED-light snowflake projector casts a “snowstorm” across your lawn, while snowy pre-lit trees and wreaths make your home merry and bright—and they are so easy to set up!
When it comes to outdoor Santa decor, our rule of thumb is go big or go... inside. A 5-foot-long sleigh bedecked in glistening crystals is a showstopper, while a 7-foot-long inflatable Santa and reindeer will delight every child in the neighborhood. If you want something super realistic, consider a life-size plush Santa that can stand on your lawn or sit on your porch. Ho, ho, ho!
If you’re decorating your outdoor space for the holidays, lights are pretty much non-negotiable. LED luminaria kits are a lovely alternative to string lights, while a pre-lit hanging basket brings a modern farmhouse vibe to your porch. There’s of course a wide variety of traditional lights, from bright and colorful to classic white.
You don’t have to live in a fairytale cottage to channel some whimsical woodsy vibes. Deer, owls, or a whole gang of forest friends are a snap to set up and bring a quick touch of magic to your outdoor space.
‘Tis the season for sweet treats! We love making a theme out of all things sugary with a lineup of dreamy candy canes along the front walk, or a trio of faux trees decorated in scrumptious-looking candies. And an adorable gingerbread doormat is a must, happily greeting all your holiday company.
