It’s that time again! Bring on the candy canes, twinkle lights, and deciding between a real or faux evergreen. Now that the sun sets at a glorious 4 pm, you’ll enjoy the beautiful light displays seen across Edmonton. If you need some new outdoor decorating inspiration for this year’s holiday season, we’ve rounded up a few fun ideas to add a little bit of sparkle to your yard.

An Oversized Real Christmas Wreath

A Christmas wreath hanging on your front door will welcome your holiday guests into your home! You can DIY a spiffy red & green wreath by adding ornaments & other Christmas items or you can simply hang a plain pine needle wreath with a ribbon to give off the holiday vibe. Wreaths are a fun and easy way to bring the holiday spirit to your home.

Laser Lights Shining on The House

Point laser lights toward the front of your house or a tree line to create amazing light displays with a reach of up to 300ft. You can even mix and match colors and choose from steady or animated lighting for a one-of-a-kind design, to best fit your landscape!

Net Lights Over Greenery

Not sure what to do with those bushes across the front of your house or lining your fence? Cover bushes and shrubs with net lights to create uniform lighting fast! If you’ve already decorated the porch with lights, use net lights in a complementary hue to add festive contrast to your outdoor Christmas display.

Decorate an Outdoor Christmas Tree

You cannot go wrong by adding lights and other decorations to a large or small outdoor tree of your choosing. You can use a beautiful and colorful tree of lights to spruce up your front yard or even cover existing trees in your yard with lights and festive ornaments. 

Happy decorating!
