Stairs in your home might be neglected during the holiday season. Fortunately, there are several ideas to consider so that this vital component in your home is decorated like the other areas.

Snow Scenes

Add some fake snow to the stair rails and a few white lights for a beautiful scene on your staircase. Once the snow is in place, you can add any kind of fun decorations that you can imagine for a festive appearance. An idea would be penguins in all sizes that look like they are sliding down the snow.

Ornaments

All of the extra ornaments that you have from decorating your tree can be used on your stairs. Garland wrapped around the staircase can hold the ornaments in place. Illuminate the ornaments by adding a string or two of white lights.

Elegance

If you want an elegant look in your home, then add a few red and gold bows along with a few poinsettias. Add a few red and gold ornaments that are spaced between the bows for an additional bit of glow on the staircase.

Hang Your Stockings

Not every home has a fireplace, and you might not want to hang your stockings on the wall for fear of them falling off. A staircase is an ideal location to hang your stockings for everyone to see.

This will be one of the first things that your kids will be able to view when they rush down the stairs on Christmas morning, so consider putting a surprise in each stocking that sticks out of the top.

Bringing The Outdoors Inside

Sometimes, it's just too cold to go outside. However, you want to view the beautiful sights that are associated with this time of the year. Add greenery that looks like it's from pine trees around your staircase along with a few pine cones.

If possible, spray the garland with oils that make it smell like a Christmas tree to give more of an outdoor feeling in your home. You can also place a few pine tree leaves, fake cranberries, a dusting of fake snow, and white lights on the staircase for a beautiful display.

Picture Perfect

Use this time of the year to showcase your family. Hang pictures of your family that have been taken during the year so that everyone can see the changes that have taken place and reminisce about the exciting events that have occurred.
