9 Modern Ways To Add Holiday Cheer To Your Outdoors

We’ve already told you a lot of sprucing up the outdoors for the coming holidays, and today i’d like to share more eye-catching ways for those who are looking for something modern and simple yet cool.

1. Double up. Twin wreaths, or any mirror-image decor, will create a pleasing symmetry.
2. Light the way. Place candles, lanterns, or luminaria lanterns on stoops or alongside paths.
3. Swag swagger. Drape a fir and lights garland over a railing.
4. Go tiny. Put a miniature holiday tree on the front porch.
5. White light. If your house is painted white, light the facade with floodlights to make it look snowy (even in a warm climate).
6. Multiplier effect. Hang identical wreaths in the windows to match the one on the front door.
7. Dress window boxes for the weather. Add evergreen boughs, small birch logs, and twinkly lights to create a woodland vignette in a window box.
8. Fire escape. Garlands and a strand of little white lights goes a long way in the city.
9. Put a candle in the window—or even better, several candles in several windows—to welcome guests with golden light.
