Even the entryway deserves its own decorations for the Christmas holidays: check out these 18 great ideas
The entryway is the area of our home that first welcomes our guests and also the one that greets us when we return from work. For this reason, it is important to pay it special attention when decorating our home during the Christmas holidays. This way, our home will immediately give off a magical, festive feel.
The porch and, more generally, the area around our front door can be decorated early on to provide the perfect welcoming of festive season (from mid-November is ideal).
If you are looking for charming and original ideas for decorating your entryway for the Christmas holidays, take a look at the 18 proposals listed below:
1. Small welcoming committee
Two large planters on either side of the front door can serve as the welcoming committee to our home. Why not take advantage of these by covering them in red and adding cute Christmas-themed decorations? A wooden sled placed on the wall nearby will remind you of the holidays from your childhood.
2. A Christmas porch
If your porch is also a "hanging out" place for your friends, it is even more important to decorate it festively: appropriately themed cushions and blankets for sofas and armchairs, a beautiful evergreen garland strung up along the perimeter, Christmas lights and festive plants will be perfect to spruce up your porch.
3. Minimalist

Simply add a string of lights to your potted plants, a wooden decoration and a simple wreath to your front door for a graceful, elegant and minimalist Christmas decor.
4. DIY decorations
DIY enthusiast? Create cute Santa Clauses by painting and decorating old wooden planks. Placed against the entryway walls, they will be the perfect festive concierges.
5. Christmas doormat
Sometimes, just a new (Christmas-themed) doormat is enough to bring the magic of the holidays into your home environment.
