When coming up with outdoor Christmas tree decoration ideas, you need to consider the weather and the durability of the Christmas tree and ornaments.
Here are some outdoor Christmas decorations to share the Christmas cheer with your neighbors.
1. Your Christmas Tree Already Awaits
One of the easiest options you have when trying to figure out outdoor Christmas tree decorations ideas is to use one of the trees in your front yard. Of course, we are assuming you have a real tree in your outdoor area. This idea is particularly great if you have evergreen trees. But if you don’t, you can still make it work with any tree.
If you have a tree that is solid enough, you could just cover it in Christmas lights, and voila! your outdoor Christmas tree decoration is set.
2. Shrubs By the Window
If you do not have trees in your yard, you can place shrubs (like red winterberry) in a box and make do with them. You could decorate the shrubs following the vintage Christmas tree pattern. Alternatively, multi color Christmas tree decorations ideas and patterns can perfectly suit your definition of the holiday season. The core of this design is to place decorated green shrubs by your window or on your front porch.
3. Pallet Christmas Trees
If the effect of cold weather on your Christmas tree/outdoor Christmas decorations worries you, pallet Christmas trees might just be the solution you need. Built from shipping pallets, pallet Christmas trees are super durable. So, they will not readily give in to inclement weather.
Besides being durable, pallet trees are customizable; you can make them of any size and color you want.
4. Enchanted Outdoor Tree
Bring the magic to your front door with this Christmas tree design. Going by its wizard-hat-shape, your guests can readily tell that you are trying to evoke the magic of the holiday spirit.
If you have an evergreen tree of the perfect size in your yard, you may use it for this decoration. Alternatively, you can buy a tree, put it in a planter, and pull the decoration off.
5. Front Door Duo
This right here is one of the most common outdoor Christmas tree decoration ideas. But even while popular, it never ceases to stir up the best feelings of the holidays. The symmetry of having a Christmas tree and a wreath on either side of your font door is eye-catching, and the red ornaments decorating the trees only make it all better.
If you would rather not go with the vintage Christmas tree look, you can use a bright blue ribbon in place of the red ornaments. You may also try decorating the trees with faux berries of different colors.
6. Starlit Garden
If you have a garden, here’s another easy, fun way to decorate your outdoor area for the festive period without worrying about snow. As long as your garden is well-trimmed/already lovely, you only need to get some starlight stakes and arrange them along the circumference of the garden. You may also attach these stakes to the shrubs and add other ornaments as you wish.
Outdoorsy globe ornaments will work here as they match the starlight stakes and are durable.
7. Tree on Wheels
Placing your outdoor Christmas tree in a wagon not only creates some curiosity around it, it makes all the work easy for you. You can readily change the position of the tree if the weather gets intense. Christmas happens in winter when the snow is typically at its heaviest. So, if you have to get the tree to a spot where it is safe from snow, you can do that with minimal effort.
8. Paper Bells and Pictures
In the weeks before Christmas, the weather might still be mild, so you can have an outdoor Christmas tree with DIY paper bells, Christmas lights, and picture ornaments at your front door. But when the weather becomes colder, you’ll have to get the tree to safety.
If you make your DIY paper bells with waterproof paper, you just might be able to leave your Christmas tree in the snow. So, you should consider this option. You may also coat the picture ornaments with clear nail polish or wax to make them waterproof.
9. All Things Bright and Beautiful
Christmas is all about cheerfulness, and having a front porch that welcomes visitors with so much brightness will pass the message across just the way you want it. So, if your front door has a bright neutral tone like white, light brown, or light grey, and you wouldn’t mind making it all brighter, try this idea out.
You can customize your decoration in a way that places bright blue ornaments in place of the red ornaments. You could also try out some gold in place of silver although we think silver is better. Then you may use white Christmas lights in place of the warm lights.
10. Walkway Lined With Christmas Trees
This is one of the outdoor Christmas decorations that fully comes alive at night. But if you arrange it properly, you’d see the visual appeal even during the day. Placing some colorful outdoorsy globe ornaments between the trees can also help highlight the daytime appeal.
The nighttime appeal of this decor idea comes from the Christmas lights. While the Christmas lights in the picture do not seem to follow a pattern, you can create a pattern while decorating your tree.
11. Rustic and Festive
Highlight the beauty of nature with a floral garden Christmas tree. You may even add a few pine cones alongside the flower petals to give your outdoor Christmas decor an even more natural look.
If you go with this idea, consider adding some white Christmas lights to your floral garden Christmas tree. But make them as sparse as you can. Densely-packing the white lights or Christmas lights of any other color may subdue the rustic feel.
12. Outdoor Christmas Tree and a Sled
Sometimes, you do not need to think too hard to come up with outdoor Christmas Tree decoration ideas. Simply hanging your garland on the door with the Christmas tree on one side and a sled on the other side is enough. The sled would be the stand out feature here because it is not really common. But its presence is significant to Christmas in many ways. So, if you have a sled, do not hesitate to add it to your outdoor Christmas tree decoration.
13. Behind a Screened Front Porch
A screened porch can make your outdoor Christmas decoration choices less limited. But besides that, you get to have a well-decorated spot from which you can watch the snow and soak in the Christmas air.
