Holiday Decorating For Dads - 5 Easy Tips

Everyone remembers the way their house felt when they were kids during Christmas time

. Dads typically have a lot of questions when it comes to finding Christmas decorations for the home. Holiday decorating does not have to be complicated and here are 5 holiday decorating tips for dads to get you started.

Outdoor Christmas Dcor:

The way you decorate the outside of your home displays your Christmas spirit to the entire neighborhood. Finding the right outdoor Christmas decorations can be a fun activity to share with your kids.

The front door is very important because it is the first thing people notice when they come to your home for the holidays. If you don't want to do another wreath, think about putting a red bow on the door instead.

Outdoor lights that are a single color with no flashing sequence add elegance to the outside view. With younger children it's more fun to have lots of color with flashing sequences.

Indoor Christmas Dcor:

At Christmas time you want your family to feel the holiday spirit and giving your home the small touches and accents throughout can accomplish just that. Here are a few ideas you may not have thought of.

If you have an open space on an end table or bookshelf, you can add a simple Christmas basket with pine and floral accents.

Accent your couch with a holiday pillow for added comfort.

Christmas candles can be scattered throughout your home to add ambience to any evening.

Christmas Dining Room Table:

Even if you are not planning a dinner party, decorating your dining room table for the holiday season will add warmth to your home.

Start with a plain red table cloth and either green or gold place settings.

Candles add elegance and intimacy to any dining room table.

The centerpiece should be the focal point of the dinner table but try not to go overboard as it can also be distracting.

Decorating Your Christmas Tree:

Every Christmas tree is different and the beauty of this particular decoration is that you can make entirely your own.

Tree size should be considered when deciding on the size of the lights you'll use. If you have a smaller tree you'll probably want to use smaller lights to leave plenty of room for the other ornaments.

Christmas ornaments are an easy place to let your family personality shine. You can have every ornament be the same or every ornament can be different. You and your kids should pick exactly the ornaments you want on your tree and it will look beautiful no matter what.

Another good way to decorate for Christmas is to make a popcorn garland. Not only is it a great way to spend time with your kids, but they'll love having popcorn on the tree to.

These are just a few tips to help dads find Christmas decor, but remember that it doesn't have to be perfect. Finding time to include your children in decorating your home for the holidays is what really matters.
