16 Christmas Home Decor Ideas To Usher In The Ho-Ho-Holidays

Tis’ the season to be jolly! Christmas is coming and we can’t wait to start organising year-end parties. But let’s help set the mood by first getting your house ready for your guests. Can’t think of anything other than a wreath of a tree? Here are some Christmas decoration ideas that will come in handy!

1. Invite your guests in with Christmas wreaths

As a representation of eternal life, Christmas wreaths are a home Christmas decor that every homeowner needs. With pretty designs featuring flowers and baubles, hanging one of these wreaths is a great and classic Christmas decor idea that’ll make your guests feel all warm and welcomed.

2. Adorn your front gate with Christmas garlands and tinsel

Looking for DIY Christmas decoration ideas for your home? We suggest draping some of these Christmas Ribbon Garlands on your front door or gate. You can also choose to add red ribbons to these Christmas garlands for some festive cheer. 

3. Santa Claus climbing your chimney window grilles?

I’d love to have Santa Claus coming down the chimney, but here in Singapore, I’ll have to make do with the windows.

4. Let it snow with Christmas rugs and carpets

Christmas in Singapore might be sad – no snow, no cold, so it’s not as pro. But at least you can add some flakes to your home, especially with this jolly large snowflake rug. 

5. Set up your Christmas tree

You got snow on the floor, but is it really a winter wonderland without a snow-covered tree? Out of all options, this is the best Christmas tree that’ll rise to the occasion.

6. Show off Christmas cards you’ve received or made

Got a lot of Christmas cards from friends and colleagues? Don’t let them go to waste! It’s reuse, reduce and recycle – a whole new initiative. Make use of them and show off all your Christmas cards instead of storing them away! These Christmas Greeting Cards can be displayed neatly on a tree or on top of a mantelpiece in your living room. Otherwise, make your own cards by following these easy Christmas card ideas!

7. Transform your home with Christmas tapestry

Since most of us live in HDBs or condos, it’s unlikely we’d have chimneys or fireplaces. Plus, we live in Singapore; we don’t need the extra heat. But we’re all suckers for aesthetics and a Christmas tapestry will transform your place, along with becoming a photo op for your Christmas gathering!

8. Play Santa with Christmas stockings

Great things come in small packages too. What’s a gift exchange or get-together without these Christmas stockings? Fill them with travel-sized toiletries or miniatures like those from POP MART. Your loved ones will definitely appreciate any Labubu, Crybaby or Hacipupu. You can even reuse these stockings as Christmas decor afterwards!

9. Change up your pillowcases to fit the Christmas mood

If you’re looking for more Christmas decoration ideas, we suggest switching the standard pillowcases on your living room couch to these Christmas Pillowcases. Available in 26 designs, the delicate prints of wreaths and snowflakes will truly enhance the holiday mood!

10. Cloth up your dining chairs 

Hosting a Christmas party can be tough. And let’s not forget about the cleanup afterwards. Ease the aftermath with removable Christmas chair covers that double as decoration ideas too! These dining chair covers set the mood for your Christmas dinners and are easy to wash thereafter thanks to their non-woven fabric.

11. Prepare a merry table setting

We’re sure you already have a tablecloth that’s elegant and understated. But I always feel that a simple tablecloth at Christmas dinners always lacks something. That was until I saw this Mini Fresh Christmas Tree. You definitely can’t go wrong with this, especially if you’ve never had a Christmas tree – what are you waiting for? 

12. Wrap your precious wine bottles with Christmas covers

Calling all wine lovers! After stocking up on the best Christmas wines, the next step is to get these Christmas Wine Bottle Covers. This Christmas decoration idea for your home is especially apt when you have guests over as it adds a nice touch of festive cheer to your dining table.

13. Light some Christmas candles 

Baby, it’s cold outside! Stay warm, ignite the vibes and light up some Christmas candles that come in the shapes of snowflakes, snowmen and Santa Claus. They’ll definitely add a spark to your parties, creating a warm and comforting atmosphere for all your guests.

14. Go whimsical with some fairy lights 

Other home Christmas decoration ideas for your bedroom would include setting up these elegant fairy lights for a dazzling vibe. These fairy lights come in eight different modes and can be hung over your bed frame or on the wall. Psst, you can reuse them for weddings and birthday celebrations too!
