As the nights get longer and the evenings get colder, adding festive magic into your home with warm and glowing outdoor lights is the perfect solution.
Creating an autumnal home that welcomes a cosy and snug atmosphere as we move into the darker nights is the perfect way to enjoy all the merriment this season has to offer. Festive decoration can begin slowly at the doorstep with seasonal motifs - and add more when the anticipation of Christmas mounts in December. Here are our hints and tips for creating the most stylish and festive outdoor Christmas space.
Deck the door
Spruce up the kerb appeal of your home for the cosy season and introduce festive doormats and potted Christmas trees to brighten up and enliven your front door. A Christmas inspired doormat offers a warm welcome to your guests, and the twinkling lights of the potted trees invites a homely atmosphere for your guests. Our outdoor wreaths pack a punch as well, with their beautiful glow and warming lights, they are sure to create a heartwarming and cosy entrance to your home that delight your guests.
For a bigger impact, dress you door with our wonderful Christmas front door kits and invite all the magic and splendour that the festive period brings. Transform your doorway into the gateway to Santa’s grotto in the most simple way by using this fabulous front door light up tree set, which includes a wreath, garland and potted trees – the perfect set up for a magical and festive welcome to your home.
Create a glowing garden
There are so many options when it comes to adding the magic of Christmas spirit your outdoor space, from hanging icicle lights from your porch, to little potted trees by your front door.
Wrap a string of lights around a tree in your garden to create a beautifully illuminated feature in your garden. For a bigger impact, you can even hang our magical outdoor hanging vine lights from a tree in your garden to create a magical and whimsical glow to your outdoor space. Or, if space is not on your side, string our cluster lights around your balcony or patio to add a warming glow and create festive cheer no matter the size or space.
Extend your inside space
The festivities shouldn’t stop at your door. And what says Christmas more than a beautifully lit Christmas tree? There are plenty of outdoor tree options that will add magic and merriment to your outdoor space. Our indoor outdoor fabulously full fir potted tree is perfect for placing in a smaller space, like your patio or just outside of you doors to bring warmth to your garden. Or for a bigger statement, we have our outdoor solar pre-lit Christmas tree that will add impact to your garden and ensure guests feel the Christmas spirit from the moment they see your home. Or, if you want something a little different, we have our light up cone tower, which adds the most delicate twinkle to your home, bringing the Christmas spirit to your garden in an elegant and subtle way.
A stylish and spectacular outdoor Christmas display
Your festive style will likely extend from your indoor space to your outdoor space, and with our decorations being as versatile as they are, a cohesive and stylish look is easy to achieve. A more traditional Christmas display would benefit from an array of warming and welcoming lights. Or if you’re going for something more modern, and in line with our Magic Stars trend, our bright outdoor lights do the job perfectly.
For a winter wonderland outdoor scene, like our Nordic Lodge trend encapsulates, consider incorporating cute lit figures for added whimsy. Choose traditional festive animal figures like our faux rattan light up reindeer, and for something more whimsical choose a faux rattan light up hare.
Remember that you can also incorporate other festive elements such as Christmas trees, wreaths, and garlands - always make sure that the ones you choose are appropriate for outdoor use and can withstand the elements.
With such elegant outdoor lighting ideas available, decorating our homes outside for Christmas has never been so accessible - all it takes is a little planning and creativity, and you can enjoy a magical Christmas outdoor scene that will delight every visitor to your home all season.
