The smell of home-baked cookies wafts through houses and apartments, candlelight illuminates the rooms and children's eyes begin to sparkle: The Advent season begins. And with it the time for festive Christmas decorations. Ideas, tips and suggestions can of course be found at idee für mich!

Whether it's fairy lights in the windows, the Advent wreath with its four candles or a homemade Advent calendar with 24 little bags - we love decorating our homes for Christmas. Some are content to take their existing decorations out of the boxes every year, others are always on the lookout for new Christmas decoration ideas.

Christmas decoration ideas galore

A festive atmosphere can be created with little effort: The Advent wreath on the dining table, a red and white checked tablecloth and some fir greenery and pine cones as decorations give the dining room a Christmassy feel. Christmas decorations traditionally come in the colors green and red, and candles are of course omnipresent during the Advent season. Would you like to make your own Christmas decorations? Then why not poke holes in a few apples and use them as candlesticks. Or place some small deer or mushroom figures from the hobby store on the table, perhaps with silver and gold Christmas baubles.

The classic: homemade Advent calendar

One of the most beautiful Christmas decoration ideas is the homemade Advent calendar with a gift bag for each day. The small fabric containers don't have to be elaborately sewn, just stitch them with a thick thread. The more adventurous can also staple them.

Whether bought or made, for indoors or outdoors: idee für mich provides you with original and atmospheric Christmas decoration ideas. Take a look and be inspired by the variety of our suggestions!
