Santa Door Decoration

In this blog post, we will tell you some of the best ideas for Christmas door decorations as well as show you how to make them too using materials that you probably have lying around your house. Let's get started on your Christmas door!

DoorFotos

DoorFotos are a great way to add some holiday cheer to your Christmas door. DoorFotos are made from athletic fabric that is washable, stretchable and reusable. We started DoorFoto a couple of years ago to make it easy and beautiful to decorate interior and exterior doors during holidays or special occasions. Christmas is one of the most popular holidays on our website, so we have tons of Santa-themed designs for you to choose from, such as this vintage-styled "It's Time Santa" design that features Santa and one of his reindeer.

Or maybe this modern "Santa Smiling" DoorFoto that features Santa with some shades and headphones on is more your style for your Christmas door decorations! Remember, we have over 1,800+ images for you to choose from.

Yet, if you still do not find the perfect design for you, you could always browse our customizable designs and use our built-in tools online to help you make it to your liking, or send us your personal image and we can make that into a one-of-a-kind DoorFoto.

Any route you choose, we are here to help you along the way. DoorFotos make the perfect Santa door decoration because they install in only 28 seconds, come in three sizes (30/32"x80", 36"x80", or 36"x96"), and can be used year after year on your front door, or any other door in your home. Plus, they are machine washable and will not damage your door!

Wreaths

One of the most popular Christmas door decorations is a wreath. These Santa-themed, Christmas door wreaths are available for purchase at many stores over the holiday, so you are sure to find one that fits your style. Our favorite place to shop for wreaths is on Etsy.com as they have unique one of kind holiday door decorations made by local artisans that you won't find at the big box stores.

These wreaths can be as simple as a red and green wreath with a Santa hat or they can be more elaborate with decorations such as jingle bells, candy canes, a mini Christmas tree, silver ornaments, and other Christmas decorations.

But, if you want your Santa wreath for your front door to be personalized, you can always make your own out of floral wire or a foam wreath. To make your own Santa wreath door decoration, you will need:

- A wire wreath form (made of floral wire for example), or a foam wreath form

- Red and green ribbon

- Christmas ornaments

- Hot glue gun

- Wire cutters

- Scissors

Instructions:

First, take your wire wreath form (made of floral wire for example) or foam wreath form and wrap it in red and green ribbon. Make sure that the ribbon is wrapped tightly so that it doesn't come undone. Next, get your hot glue gun and attach some Christmas ornaments to the wreath. You can use any type of ornament that you want, but we recommend using red and green balls as well as some miniature Santa figurines of course! Once you have finished gluing on the decorations with the hot glue gun, use scissors to trim any excess ribbon. And that's it! Your new Santa wreath for your front door can be added to your Christmas door decorations this year!

Santa sign

Another great idea for Christmas door decorations is a sign for your front door. You can either buy a Christmas-themed sign at your local store or make one yourself. There are Christmas door themed signs with Santa Claus on them, and/or festive sayings such as "Merry Christmas" or "Ho Ho Ho".

Santa signs come in all styles too, such as rustic, vintage, or even modern. Make sure you find the right style to match the theme of your Christmas door!

If you want to make your own sign to add to your Christmas door decorations list, all you need is some construction paper, scissors, hot glue, and markers. Simply cut out the shape of a sign from the construction paper. Write your Christmas message on the sign with markers. And then glue on some additional holiday-themed decorations such as sequins, glitter, or even pom-poms.

If you want more of a unique, yet simple way to add a Santa sign to your Christmas door decorations, we suggest checking out our website, DoorFoto.com. We hand make athletic fabric door covers, right here in the U.S.A.! We have over 1,800+ images for you to choose from, for any holiday or occasion, so you bet we have plenty of Santa Claus designs for you to add to your Christmas door decorations!

We think this "Skating Santa" would be a perfect sign for you to hang on your door since it says "Merry Christmas" right across the top. Plus, DoorFotos install in only 28 seconds, are machine washable, and will not cause any damage to your door, so they are a perfect addition to your Christmas door decorations!

Santa hats

Another piece of decor to add to your holiday door decoration list is Santa hats on your doorknob! This is a fun and easy way to show some holiday spirit. You can find Santa hats at most stores during the Christmas season, or you can make your own Santa hat using some red construction paper, cotton balls, and hot glue.

First, trace a Santa hat onto the red construction paper using a pencil. Next, cut out the Santa hat shape. Once you have cut out the Santa hat, use the hot glue to glue on some cotton balls around the edge of the hat. And that's it! Your Christmas door decoration for your front door, or any door in your home is now complete!

Garland

Another idea for Christmas door decorations is garland. You can use any type of garland that you want, but we recommend using a red and green garland to represent Santa Claus for your Christmas door decorations!

In fact, around the holidays, there will be all types of garlands for sale. There is garland with festive lights, garland with Christmas trees, garland with Santa hats, and even garland with Santa Claus himself! No matter what type of garland you choose, it is sure to add some holiday cheer to your front door and your Christmas door decorations.

To hang up the garland, all you need to do is simply drape it over your front door or use tape to secure it in place. And that's all there is to it! Now you have another door decoration idea to add to your Christmas door decorations list.

Santa figurines

Another Santa door decoration idea is to place Santa figurines, and maybe a mini Christmas tree by your front door. This is a fun way to add some holiday cheer to your home, and it is sure to be a great addition to your Christmas door decorations.

There are all sorts of Santa figurines that you can choose from for your holiday door decoration. You can find Santas that are holding presents, Santas that are riding on sleighs, Santas that are by a Christmas tree, and even Santas that are playing in the snow!

No matter what type of Santa figurine you choose, it is sure to look fantastic by your Christmas door and help bring that holiday spirit to your whole home right when people walk up to your front door.

Santa Pillows on the porch

If you have a front porch with a couch or bench on it, another Christmas door decoration idea is to place Santa pillows on it! This is a fun and festive way to show some holiday spirit, and it is sure to bring a smile to everyone who is walking up to your home.

You can find Santa pillows at most stores during the Christmas season, that have designs on them such as Santa Claus, reindeer, or even snowflakes. Or you could make your own Santa pillow by simply sewing a Santa hat onto a plain red pillow!

Festive pillows are a subtle, yet perfect touch to your Christmas door decorations. It will really bring that Christmas feel to not only your Christmas door but your whole house!

A big red bow

Another Santa decor item to add to your Christmas door decorations is a big red bow! You can find these bows at most stores during the Christmas season, and they are the perfect way to add a touch of Christmas to your door.

You can either place the bow on your door by itself or you can use it to accentuate another decoration, such as a wreath or a DoorFoto such as this "Santa and Reindeer" design. You could place a big red bow right above the reindeer's head!

Either way, the bow is sure to add some holiday cheer to your Christmas door decorations!
