Create effective Christmas decorations in the garden by reusing last year’s decorations and combining them with household items. Clear out the closet and kitchen cabinets, collect fresh fir branches, and look around the garden; you may already have everything you need.
Christmas decorations in the garden or on the balcony – give old things a new use

You can make effective Christmas decorations in the garden or on the balcony from old household objects. Do you have unused shoes or sweaters? Turn them into a Christmas wreath. Cut a foam wreath form in half, pull the sweater sleeves over the two halves, and glue the pieces together again. Finish the door wreath with a red bow and hang a small pad or ornament in the center. Decorate an old sled with red baubles and tinsel and place it by the door. If you have a garden bench, arrange Christmas ornaments and figures on it. Planters by the front door can be filled with artificial candy canes.
Reuse last year’s lights creatively – Christmas in the garden

Take last year’s string lights out of the closet. If they are tangled, that is not a disaster: place the whole string in a planter or bucket, then fill the container with fir branches. For a stronger effect, add Christmas baubles or small angels. Fill a bird feeder with fruit and let it freeze for a natural winter decoration. If you have an old bird’s nest in the garden, fill it with lights and hang it on the balcony. With a little creativity, you can create your own designs for Christmas decorations in the garden.
