Inspired by Charm
Your stairway is one of the first things your friends and family see when they enter your home. So when the time comes to put up Christmas decorations, why not give your staircase the same special holiday treatment as the rest of your house?
If you have a stairway in your home—whether it's in the foyer or another part of the house—the holidays are its moment to shine! The best part about Christmas stair decorations is that they can be as simple or as ornate as you like. Christmas garlands made with live greens look beautiful and smell just as lovely. (Keep reading to find a hack for making your live greenery look fuller!) Pretty lights also make a great addition to Christmas décor for stair railings, and there are so many affordable options with battery-operated strings on timers—so you don't have to worry about finding an outlet or tripping over cords.
If that seems like too much work, you can always arrange a few small Christmas plants (such as poinsettias!) and decorative lanterns at the bottom of your stairs, or place LED candles on every other step. These are just a couple super simple ways to make the stairs look special without a lot of fuss. Another fun idea is tying your collection of DIY Christmas stockings onto your railing with big festive bows. It's a no-mess way to add color and Christmas spirit—without having to clean up any fallen pine needles. Plus, you can tuck an ornament or bit of faux greenery into each stocking for the perfect finishing touch.
Here are some of our favorite ideas for Christmas stair decorations that will step up your holiday style!
