Diy Christmas Yard Decorations Ideas

Sometimes when decking out the halls, we forget that the garden needs some Christmas love too! After all, he was born in a manger, with the animals and the cold… not in a warm cozy inn! So isn't it fitting we treat our front yard with some Christmas yard projects? These DIY outdoor Christmas yard decorations will make the season special in your garden, and for all those who pass by it!

If you live in an area that freezes hard at Christmas, these frozen ice luminaries are an amazing way to light the garden path. Do it for a party, or just for your family! SOOOOO pretty! These first ones are from 'Henhurst Interiors', and here's what they said on making them… "Beautiful way to welcome guests to your party–illuminate your entry with luminaries made from frozen ice. Use half gallon milk cartons and empty wine bottles for these Christmas yard projects. After initial freeze, remove wine bottle and add more water to raise bottom level to accommodate a votive candle."…

DIY Outdoor Animal Christmas Yard Projects

'Finding Home' "found" the perfect Christmas yard project… a reindeer! I love that this reclaimed wood reindeer isn't too cutesy, but they don't leave out the red nose. Gotta have some magic, people!

Last, we have this rustic log slice snowman by 'Grandparents Plus'. I couldn't find a tutorial for it, but it looks pretty simple in design. Flatten the log slice edges where you attach for a tight fit,( and so they won't tip over!)  then screw from the back or use wood glue and clamps. I can see quite a few different ways to decorate using this project in the yard.

Want something more unique? How about Santa and a vintage camper? From 'Amazon', this comes with a built in air blower to fill this inflatable decoration. It's 7 feet tall, so it will make quite an impression!

Peanuts Christmas is one of the most beloved Christmas specials of all time. So bring it to your yard this year! This pre lighted Snoopy mailbox decoration from 'Amazon' is lit from within with clear LED lights. It's 32 inches tall, and they also have 3 other designs. No one else on the block will have this!
