51 Best Porch Christmas Decorations
1. Yarn Wreaths
Let us get a bit imaginative with our wreath and instead of a traditional one, we can make one using some neutral colored yarn and twine balls.
Arrange them beautifully and add some Christmas ornaments (preferably from previous years, frugality is golden peeps) or snowflakes to top it.
2. Do Lots with Little
A Merry Christmas Decor doesn’t need to be done with a lot of expensive things. In fact, going minimal with the things and colors we use is the new hype because of its utterly graceful and refined vibe.
Why go anywhere when some prelit Christmas trees and fairy lights can make your porch rock!
3. Jingle Bells
Add a buffet to give your porch a comfy holiday feel along with a bistro chair and merry cushions.
Statement the buffet with a pot filled with pine cones and faux bushes. Also place candles and a belled wreath to finish it.
4. Add Christmas Signs
A welcoming and appealing porch is all we thrive on Christmas, right? This Christmas sign pretty much does the same!
Take your favorite papers and pen down whatever message you want to display. Top it with a giant bow matching the color scheme.
5. Slay in Sober
This natural porch with pine cones and a pair of boots is the perfect example of posh elegance.
A leafy green wreath with matching garland and a lantern holder on the sides with a Christmas tree is all you need for this classy look.
6. Chilled and Chic
Make use of this chilly weather to make your porch stand out by making this crystal clear candle holder using water and some twigs.
I bet no store stocks something as cool as this!
7. Say it With Stockings
Upgrade a green wreath by hanging a Christmas stocking right in front of it. This adds liveliness to the wreath without investing in a dozen Christmas balls.
You can also add some garlands and faux leaves of a green that’s different from the bush upon which you’re placing them.
8. Coz Christmas is Colorful
Add a pop of beautiful and bold colors. Its Christmas time guys, you can do whatever you feel like. The best part- bright colors go along with everything.
Add a belled wreath, colorful balls, hang stars, deers, and whatever you feel like!
9. Snowball Lanterns
Use snow to make more than a snowman. Add pretty candle holders made out of winter snow just by rolling it into balls, make an igloo-like structure, and place a candle inside it.
Place multiple of these to light up everything like a firefly!
10. Display With a Ladder
Opting for rustic over a well finished wooden thingy is the new modern trend. Like, using a rustic ladder decorated with pine cones, some Christmas toys & ornaments.
Pair this with a beautiful Christmas Tree, green garlands, and bright lights that can make our porch look glamorous. Also, don’t forget to add a chalkboard engraved with some Merry thoughts.
11. Party in a Pot
Fill earthen pots with glittery plastic balls and place them here and there around the porch to sprinkle joy everywhere.
Don’t forget to add some fairy lights at the bottom so that they don’t lose their glow when the sunsets.
12. Add Green Gifts
Let’s change our gift wrapping papers a bit. Wrap the gifts with prelit faux garlands and secure them in place with a buffalo print ribbon to add the much needed happy color.
This way you can add greens without actually using a pot.
13. Pine For All
Replace your traditional circular wreaths with the ones made of painted pine cones and leaves to make your porch stand out.
Add pine cones to your basic green garlands as well to get a complete theme.
14. Galvanized Bucket
Give the porch stairs a happy decor by placing galvanized buckets on each of them with certain Christmasy words or symbols inked on them with a chalk pen. Add some fresh greens (preferably in a glass jar, filled with water), and lights to make it all bright and joyous!
15. Add Lots of Greens
Make your porch look all lush and green this Christmas by adding a lot of leafy pieces. A leafy green wreath with a buffalo scarf on the doors topped by a green faux garland with buffalo bows and lights, supported by multiple Christmas trees on the stairs.
Decorate this with red plastic bulbs or twine balls and some fake presents and lantern boxes. This is one the most exotic combination you can ever try on the porch.
