8 Ways to Decorate Your Home’s Exterior<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Wrapping Paper<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Wrap your front door and garage door in\nwrapping paper! Find a great deal on bulk wrapping paper at your nearest store\nand go festive! However, don\u2019t wrap the edges of the front door or garage door,\nas you don\u2019t want to interfere with any hardware. Move a few inches from the\nedges and start wrapping the panels. You can even place a huge bow in the\nmiddle once you\u2019re done. Just make sure it\u2019s secure so it won\u2019t fall off when\nthe door\u2019s moving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Christmas Wreaths<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Christmas wreaths are a great option to decorate every home entrance. You can find both fake and live wreaths to decorate with bows and lights. The best way to hang wreaths is on the front door or above the garage door so they can stay secure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Lanterns<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Lanterns can be hung above or beside your front door or garage door to add pops of extra light. Choose a few of your favorite lantern designs to coordinate in places around your home\u2019s exterior. You can find both electric and battery-powered lanterns. With electric lanterns, you can even put the lights on a timer so that they won\u2019t be on during the night. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Garland<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Garland<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Garland is another popular choice of outdoor\nChristmas decoration. Like wreaths, you can purchase live or fake garland to\ndecorate your home. You can hang garland on the front porch, any railing, or\neven on or around the garage door. You may want to drape it in a pattern; get\ncreative! Garland can also be decorated with lights and bows to make it even\nmore beautiful. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Decals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Decals are a great way to decorate your garage door or home\u2019s siding without fear of damage. These stickers can be applied directly to the surface and will peel off when you need to remove them. Choose from large decals of Santa Claus and Christmas trees to smaller ones like snowmen, reindeer, snowflakes, and more! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Lights<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Lights<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Lights are easily the most popular Christmas\ndecorations. If you want to decorate your front door or garage door with\nlights, you can line the frame. We recommend that you don\u2019t place any lights on\nthe door itself because they may get caught when the doors are moving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Use a Projector<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A projector is a great way to create your own home show! It\u2019s also harmless to your home\u2019s exterior and can be turned on and off at your discretion. You can even add music to match with the show. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Fake Snow<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
