Now that the beautiful harvest decorations for Thanksgiving are long gone and the holiday season rapidly approaches, it’s time to decorate your iron fence for the winter holiday season! Decorating your iron fence is a great way to add some holiday cheer to your landscaping without sticking a giant blow up Santa Claus in your yard. Here are some tips for making your iron fence festive this winter.
Add Greenery
Add some greenery to your iron fence! Iron looks beautiful with a warm festive green next to it, so purchase some evergreen garlands and wreaths to decorate with. You can drape the evergreen garland along the length of your iron fence, gathering it at certain points to create visual interest. If you want to be a little more creative, hang weatherproof ornaments or bows on the areas that are gathered. You can also hang wreaths on your iron fence. This is an especially great way to decorate for the winter holiday if you have an upright gate to hang it from.
Add Some Lights
You string lights on the outside of your home and throughout the inside of your home, so why not light up your iron fence outside? Use battery operated strings of outdoor lights to decorate your fence. If you want to go small and tasteful, wrap lights just around the top bars. If you want to go all out, use a great number of lights to wrap around individual rails or bars of your fence. If you are also using garland, lights are a great way to highlight your other decorations all night long.
Have Fun!
No matter what you use to decorate your iron fence for the winter holiday, make sure that you have fun and match your decorating personality to your fence. Whether you prefer classic elegance or fun whimsy, there are decorations for you to enjoy out there, so go have fun!
