As our favorite winter holiday approaches it is time to begin thinking about Christmas decorating ideas. If you already have ideas for your house and yard displays, you may still have questions about how to spice up the look of your window boxes. Check out some of our Christmas window box decorating ideas below to help get you started.
Natures Walk. Gather all the materials you need for this natural beauty in your backyard or nearby park. Tie clusters of spruce branches together using wire and complete the look by combing with pinecones and holly. Spray lightly with an artificial snow to give a real winter window box feel.
White Winter. Tie clusters of twigs together to make a base and spray silver. Add faux snow flocked evergreen boughs. Accent your snow white theme with any combination of items such as white lace ribbon, reindeer moss, cream artificial berries, walnuts and even hibiscus pods. You can even soak small twigs in bleach water overnight to turn them white and use them to decorate.
Christmas Balls. Fill your planter boxes with Christmas balls in all variety of sizes and complementary colors such as red with small amounts of gold. Glue the balls together to keep them from blowing away and help give a full look. Also incorporate some same colored strands of ribbon to provide additional flare.
Wrapped Window box. For easy decorating, try wrapping your window box with gift wrap paper. Complete the look with large ribbons, bows and even gift tags. For quilters try creating a quilt wrap for your box using leftover Christmas fabric.
Evergreen. Bring in the holiday charm by planting dwarf or small conifers such as Tsuga Canadensis. Accentuate your look with gold and deep purple berries and ribbons, pinecones, and other natural floral accents such as eucalyptus branches.
Metallic. Begin your look with a base of dusty miller combined with silver ornament, silver tinsel and silver ribbons. For holiday sparkle, incorporate some white lights, glitter and clear crystals into your design.
Fireplace Mantel. Begin this design by painting a brick pattern onto cardboard. Attach this design to the front of you box and decorate like a fireplace. Hang large stockings below the mantel, and incorporate Christmas cards affixed on top. Include large hanging garland, bows and broad pillar candles.
Hopefully these ideas will help you create a unique and beautiful Christmas window display. Although most flowers don't do well during the winter season, it does not mean that you can't be creative with your window boxes. Dressing them up with decorations, ornaments, or evergreens for Christmas is a great way to boost your curb appeal and show your neighbors you have a few tricks up your sleeve that they haven't thought of already.
