138 People Who Won Christmas 2020 With Their Creative Christmas Decor Ideas

We’re waist-deep into the holiday season and even any further 2020 surprises can’t put out our Christmas spirits. Most of you Pandas have probably already untangled the miles and miles of Xmas lights, decorated your homes, and are busy thinking about what to cook for the holiday table.

But just in case you need some last-minute motivation (or if you want to wow your family even more), Bored Panda has collected some of the most brilliant and creative examples of people decorating for Christmas. Enjoy, upvote your fave pics, and be sure to shamelessly borrow these ideas for your own home to impress Santa. We’d love to see what your own decorations look like this year, too, so drop us a snap in the comment section, dear Pandas. Be sure to read on for Bored Panda's interview about Xmas decorations with David Thompson from The Christmas Shop.

For more deco-inspo, you should check out our earlier posts here (creative Xmas trees), here (awesome hospital decorations), and here (genius lazy ideas).

Bored Panda reached out to the UK-based team over at The Christmas Shop and spoke to them about Xmas decorations. According to Thompson, great decorations fall into 2 categories: "Those that are stylishly designed and fit in with a theme or color scheme and those that provoke happy memories of family and friends or past events."

Thompson said: "To some extent, Christmas decorations will always be tacky in the minds of some people due to their bright sparkly colors and for the enthusiast, there can never be 'too much.'"

We were also curious to find out how the hardships of 2020 affected The Christmas Shop on a very practical level. "The final quarter of 2020 has been very successful with sales considerably higher than previous years," Thompson revealed. "The closure of retail stores during lockdown and the subsequent restrictions on retail has pushed people to purchase online and we appear to have benefitted from this."

#5 So After I Bought This House I Was Informed My Neighbors Do It Big For Christmas

I spent a lot of money already buying a new tree and all the decorations for the inside, so I talked to my neighbor and we came up with the perfect solution. I promise I'm not really a Grinch!!

#6 Kids Designed Christmas Lights

I can tell you that I personally felt loads better after I got my Christmas tree and put up all of the decorations. It’s not just me, though. Psychologist Deborah Serani explained to ‘Today’ that all of the bright lights and colors boost our mood and spike our dopamine. In brief, the pretty lights make us happy. And we wouldn’t have it any other way. 

However, when it comes to decorating your home, office, or front yard, creativity can be a bit of a double-edged candy cane sword because it’s not just you that you have to impress. You want something refined and elegant yet fun and goofy that will have the neighbors talking. But finding the balance between the two can be a Grinch-filled nightmare.

#9 We’ve Been Working On These Decorations Little By Little For The Past Couple Of Months

Obviously, we all want to impress Santa so much that it’ll make him leave us cookies and milk (and make him put us on the ‘nice’ list. Permanently). But it’s a fine line between Xmas spirit-inspired genius ideas and tacky decorations that are way too out there for anyone to enjoy.

The solution—get as many people’s opinions about your decorations as you can. Ask your family to be honest with you. FaceTime your friends. Get your colleagues on Zoom. Heck, you could even try asking for advice on the internet, of all things!

Whatever decorations you’ve already put up (or are rushing to unbox), at the end of the day, what really matters is that you have fun. Even if it’s tacky—it’s still Christmassy. And even if your creativity’s raising too many eyebrows, we’ve got to give you props for trying! Remember, there’s always next year. You can one-up yourself then!

Kudos to the perpetrators of this dastardly and very dangerous deed, they did it again! They put up a new Christmas tree on top of the abandoned Canada Malting Company plant. They upped their game this year and also put Christmas decorations on one of the windows and left a giant nicely gift wrapped gift. They even put a name tag on the gift. I can't make out the name tag, I am assuming it is made out to all the citizens of Montreal!

#79 So One Of My Neighbors Left Me A Note Informing Me That My Gargoyle Statue Is “Not Appropriate” And “Not In Keeping With The Christmas Spirit”

They firmly suggested that I “rectify the situation immediately.” Well problem solved! Frank is now festive! I’m pretty sure that this is not what they had in mind and I look forward to the future note stating as much, but 1. Frank is very heavy and he doesn’t get moved and 2. I like him even if he’s not so great at warding off evil Karens. I decided to increase the degree of festiveness.

Got a new note wanting to know if I think I’m funny. Why yes, yes I do. I decided to add an elf on the shelf and leave a note back that the elf is always watching. I may add one item a day now like an advent calendar. Too bad my porch is so small, I could really deck it out.

I tried to convince one of the cats to sit outside in a costume as part of my display, kind of like one of those living nativity displays. They all declined. So festive skeleton cat it is!

I had an early morning dentist appointment and needed to go to the grocery, so it was dark when I put out today’s addition. Karen had already been here by the time I got home. Originally I just had the hippos out, but she left me a note saying “HIPPOS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!” Written just like that in all caps and a full ten exclamation points. (I kinda feel like I’m talking to my dad now. He used to text me in all caps.) I personally found this statement false and offensive. Who doesn’t want a hippopotamus for Christmas?? Okay, maybe it’s just me. Anyway, I put the sign up so she’d know how incorrect she is.

Well it looks like the first one through the wreath is—-coronavirus!! It is 2020 after all. It was only a matter of time before this a**hole showed up. Maybe he’ll be able to keep Karen six feet away from my porch.

The holiday season can be a tough time for a lot of us, myself included, and this year has been particularly COVID craptastic, so knowing that my silly shenanigans with my nosey neighbor has brought even a small chuckle to so many people really warms my heart. I mean, I crack myself up daily, but knowing people all over the dang world are cracking up with me is pretty freaking cool. I enjoy reading the stories some of you have shared and I appreciate you sharing them. Maybe I'll have read most of them by summer (there are a lot). I wanted to give a special shout out to all the nurses, docs, EMTs, PAs, RTs, and all you other frontline badasses for all of your comments. It's so cool to know this silly page can provide even a moment of relief from all the stress you guys are under right now. You guys are the true heroes of 2020! Frank and friends salute you! Everyone stay safe and remember---Hippos are Christmas AF!!
