Outdoor Christmas Trees

prelit christmas treeIf you are looking at crowning your yard decorations with outdoor Christmas trees,  then you should determine where and how you want to use them and whether  you want a real or artificial Christmas tree. You must realize that they come in varying heights, colors, and shapes.  And yes, the colors now include other beautiful colors like pink, white, blue instead of only the traditional green.

German immigrants who were only continuing in a ritual they were used to back home, were the first to use  pine tree to celebrate Christmas in the state of Pennsylvania USA. And today, the practice has spread to other American homes and  Nations of the world. The Christmas tree has  indeed become synonymous to the season. It is the most important physical element of the season, decorations can not be said to be complete  without the tree.

Choosing  between Artificial Or Real Outdoor Christmas trees.

If you are torn between purchasing  real Christmas tree and artificial ones, then read the advantages and disadvantages of each below to make an informed choice

Real Christmas Trees

Douglas fir

Real Christmas trees are evergreens that adds a pleasant fragrance to the environment. The cultivation of which helps to reduce the global warming and climate change problems. One cultivated Christmas tree can provide oxygen for 18 people. It is therefore beneficial not only to the user but also to the larger environment.

However, real Christmas trees do require plenty of time and effort to care for and some of them eventually dry up before the end of the Christmas season.
In addition, some real Christmas trees do not possess excellent shipping characteristics and may pose a problem if it is  ordered online.

Artificial Christmas Trees.

pink christmas treeThey are a very good investment as they have a long life span of up to five years.

The cost of artificial Xmas trees is based on the size. They can be found in varying sizes from counter top sizes (perfect for walkways) to as tall as 20Ft.

Most artificial Christmas trees are very easy to set up and later dismantled for proper storage.

Artificial Christmas trees come in different colors. The traditional dark green, flocked trees,white, pink, blue, red and black.  They are also available as metal, ceramic, wooden and spiral Christmas trees.

The one disadvantage though is that you need a dry place to store your artificial Christmas tree or else it can be damaged permanently. The pieces may get out of shape during storage, or you may lose one or more pieces distorting the shape of the tree.

Outdoor Christmas trees are such a joy to behold, hurry, make your choice and get your yard beautifully decorated.

Lighted Christmas Outdoor Reindeer

A lighted Christmas outdoor reindeer placed in a sufficiently lit but subdued lighted lawn will be a spectacular delight to behold. Reindeer’s are a type of deers that live in cold northern regions. They are a symbol of elegance and beauty.

lighted reindeer

So what has reindeers got to do with the Christmas celebration? Santa Claus’s sleigh is traditionally believed to be driven by eight reindeer’s namely Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Dunder, and Blixem. Later a ninth reindeer called Rudolf-the red nosed reindeer was named in addition to the original eight.

The story was told of Rudolph, that it was his red nose that once lighted the way for Santa and the other eight reindeers so that Santa Claus was able to deliver presents as scheduled around the world.

Before Rudolf achieved that feat and became a hero, the other reindeers never missed an opportunity to ridicule him because of his bright red nose.

The reindeer is therefore significant and an important figurine when putting up Christmas decorations. You can find three dimensional lighted reindeer feeding or standing tall or a group of reindeers feeding or pulling Santa Claus’s sleigh, lighted with a rope or neon lighting decoration and so many other variations.

Outdoor lighted reindeers are made of holographic materials with rope lights or wire sculptured (which is the most popular) and may or may not be animated. They are specially made to withstand harsh outdoor conditions.

Add a liveliness and elegance to the season with your own lighted Christmas outdoor reindeer.

Outdoor Lighted Holiday Sleigh

lighted sleighThe outdoor lighted holiday sleigh is one of my favorite decorative pieces. Its a symbol of fun and excitement, just like when you are actually taking a ride in a sleigh on a cold winter morning, how exciting!

Just one giant sleigh will completely transform your lawns and will surely set the tone for the holiday season. Your family and friends, neighbors and passers-by will all experience the joy and cheer of the holiday beholding the grandeur. Your children will especially be thrilled at the sheer sight of the splendor of the lighted sleigh.

If you can still remember the story of Santa Claus and his flying reindeers, then it will be a good opportunity to share with your children the magic of Christmas and the story behind the sleigh and the reindeer. I can only imagine how excited they will be seeing the characters in the story live!

Santa’s holiday sleigh can be used as a stand alone decorative piece or along side a life size figure of Santa Claus or one or a number of Santa’s reindeers, it is up to you to make that choice.

Most lighted sleighs come with energy saving LED lights which means they won’t build up more cost for you at the long run. And you will be helping to reduce carbon emissions and ultimately make our environment more safe.

Help Santa Keep the season bursting with excitement, share love and experience peace with your very own outdoor lighted holiday sleigh.

Outdoor Lighted Nutcracker

nutcrackerThis Christmas transform your lawns and go traditional with an outdoor lighted Nutcracker.

Nutcrackers are devices originally crafted to assist humans in cracking nuts. They have long been in use even before Christ. Originating from the ore mountains. Its invention has been attributed to a renowned philosopher, Aristotle. The figure consists of a large mouth into which the nut is inserted and using the lever principle the lever is pulled down forcing the nut to open.

The function of cracking nuts however, has been replaced. People now  use nutcrackers more as a decorative and collectible item rather than its traditional function of cracking nuts. Other times they are giving to children as toys and very special gifts to adults.

Much has also be written about the nutcracker, in stories, music and movies.

Nutcracker Christmas decorations come in various wooden forms, ranging from wooden carvings of a king, soldier, knight and more recently cartoon characters, American founding fathers, people from history,characters from television programmes and so much more. All of which can be lighted for outdoor and indoor use, in large, medium and small sizes.

Some of the most popular nutcracker wooden creations are Steinbeck, Erzgebirge, and Ulbricht nutcrackers.

Why not put some tradition in your Christmas decorating by using outdoor lighted nutcracker this holiday?

Christmas Lawn Decorations

nativityChristmas lawn decorations is always a delight to everyone. For me, whenever I come across them, I experience a surge of real excitement  which makes me just love the holiday season. Same goes for most children and adults, it spreads a subtle message of hope, love, peace and goodwill.

Perfect for decorating your lawns are large sized Christmas figurines such as Santa Claus, his sleigh, reindeer, nutcrackersthe nativity set made up of  Joseph, Mary, baby Jesus  in swaddling clothes and some  animals in a stable; angels, the wise men, a star, wrapped gift boxes and so on.

When using figures you should take into consideration the space available to you. If your space is small, a single large ornament may be attractive enough. But if you happen to have a large space, by all means place a couple around. Please use your discretion. I am sure you would not want your well meaning Christmas lawn decorations to look like a circus.

I suggest you choose a theme on which your decoration will be based. As an example, you can decide to focus on Santa Claus or on the nativity, gold, blue, red, or green color theme. If you are focusing on Santa Claus for instance, you should have figures like Santa in his sleigh, reindeer’s either grazing or standing alone or in a group,one or two elves etc. If you’ll rather go for the nativity then figures like Mary and Joseph, a stable with animals and a baby Jesus in swaddling clothes.

Do not forget to:reindeer

  1. Use lighted lawn ornaments to create a captivating sight within your lawns when it gets dark.
  2. Stick to the Christmas color themes.
  3. Purchase lawn decorations that can withstand outdoor conditions such as snow, cold or heat.
  4. Use inflatables for some of the figures

Your  lawn decorations will tell the world how high your festive spirit is and the importance you place on celebrating the season. Share love and joy with your Christmas lawn decorations this season.
