Christmas decorations are one of the best ways to flaunt your holiday spirit. Whether you’re decorating the inside of your house, its exterior, or your lawn, Christmas decorations are a fun and festive way to let your guests and neighborhood know you love the season! If you’re planning to decorate this year, be sure to check out these five different decorations that we think are sure-fire hits to commemorate the season:

1. Personalized Christmas stockings
Christmas stockings are fun for family and guests alike – family members will feel a special connection with their stocking stuffers, while guests will see your commitment to Christmas! When you hang personalized stockings with care, they’ll add a great homey touch to your living room, even if you don’t have a fireplace to hang them over. You can get them almost anywhere at a relatively low cost, or even make them yourself! We love them because they draw the eye and make rooms feel cozier and more intimate, while also serving a practical purpose that will last a lifetime.

2. String lights
By now, string lights are well-known for being a traditional part of the Christmas festivities. They’re versatile, reliable, and will last a long time. When bulbs burn out they’re easy to replace. Plus, they’re cheap. A good pair of LED outdoor string lights won’t set you back very much at all and can be acquired from any number of retailers, from superstores to local hardware stores. If you haven’t already, this season we recommend you investigate investing in some decent string lights.

3. Door wreaths
A Christmas wreath is the perfect way to let anyone who comes to your door know that you love Christmas and don’t care who knows it. Friends, neighbors, and whoever else knocks at your home can be taken in by the sight of a circle of pine encasing holly berries, pinecones, and whatever other decorations are nestled in between the needles. Wreaths can be expensive if they’re custom-made with genuine natural parts, but reusable plastic ones are available at most major retailers at low cost.

4. Lawn ornaments
If a Christmas wreath will show your spirit to your world, lawn ornaments take that spirit and spread it to anyone passing through your neighborhood. Whether you want to showcase the nativity scene, Jack Frost, or Santa and all his reindeer, lawn ornaments give you the ability and creativity to make whatever’s in your mind. Solid and inflatable lawn ornaments alike can be acquired from most major retailers, as well as antique shops, home and garden stores, and more.

5. Artificial Christmas trees
Last but not least, who could forget about Christmas trees? A pillar of jolliness and fun, a tree in your foyer or living room is a great place to convene around during the holidays. The decorating process brings family members together, the base is where all the presents are gathered, and the top is where a family can put whatever they think embodies the Christmas spirit best. Real trees can be acquired at low cost from tree farms or cut down by hand at no cost. Artificial Christmas trees can be found at reasonable prices at major retailers around the holidays, home improvement stores, and home and garden businesses.
