Winter brings a plethora of opportunities to decorate our homes with all the delights of the season. Christmas especially brings its own unique character to your home, with opportunities to craft, decorate and create a warm and cosy space to spend the long evenings.
Windows shouldn’t be neglected when it comes to seasonal decorating. They are more than just a functional feature of our rooms, offering a view in and out of our homes and the beautiful Worcester countryside. Here are some dressing ideas for windows in Worcester for the winter season.
Natural and sustainable
According to Country Living, one trend that seems to be here to stay is natural decorations, made with real branches, pinecones and foliage from outside. Placing foliage around the windows in garlands will bring the outside in and give a wonderful fairytale feel to your windows Worcester.
If you have a garden and grow berries or evergreen foliage like fir and holly, it can also be a very cost-effective way to decorate.
Paper or felt garlands
Continuing the trend for sustainable and ethical decorating, paper and felt gardens were among some of the most in-demand Christmas decorations this year, according to e-commerce site Etsy. Garlands look beautiful draped across windows and are also lightweight and therefore unlikely to need any special apparatus to hold them up.
Wreaths
Wreaths are a Christmas classic. While many choose to hang wreaths on doors, there are some disadvantages to doing so, including slamming doors and lots of traffic that could potentially damage them. This makes windows an ideal place to hang wreaths instead of, or possibly in addition to, the door. Because of their shape, and depending on the materials chosen, wreaths won’t block out light.
