Ideas for Christmas decorations in the entrance area and for exterior doors
Christmas time is approaching - the perfect time to make the entrance area of your home, hotel or restaurant festive. Create an inviting atmosphere with cleverly placed decorative elements and door wreaths to immediately welcome your guests to your premises. With the right decorations, a festive atmosphere is created as soon as you enter your premises.
Door decorations for Christmas - door wreaths
First impressions count: A festive Christmas decoration for the front door and entrance immediately welcomes your guests and creates a Christmassy atmosphere at first glance. It's no coincidence that the classic door wreath is one of the most popular Christmas decorations. You can choose from an almost endless sea of possibilities when it comes to wreaths. You can find ready-made wreaths that are already decorated, ready-tied wreaths made from artificial or real fir greenery that you can decorate yourself, as well as so-called wreath blanks that provide you with the basic framework for the wreath, but give you full control when tying and decorating. With natural materials and a little skill, you can create an individual door wreath that perfectly matches the rest of your Christmas decorations. Use fir branches, pine cones, orange slices, bows, baubles, figurines, dried flowers or wooden elements to decorate your wreath individually.
In addition to door wreaths, garlands and fairy lights create a festive ambience. A string of lights wrapped around the door frame creates a warm, inviting light and gives the entrance area a cozy touch. Garlands of fir greenery, decorated with Christmas baubles and lights, can also be placed at the front door or on the wall.
Christmas decorations in the reception area of hotels and co.
Christmas decorations in the foyer or entrance area play a crucial role for businesses, especially in the hotel and catering industry. This area is often the first place guests see when they enter, and an atmospheric Christmas decoration immediately creates a very special atmosphere during the Advent season. Still not sure what direction to take with your decorations this year? We present the Christmas decoration trends and color of the year as well as great ideas for Christmas room decorations.
Using empty corners cleverly
The reception area of a hotel lobby should be inviting and easily accessible at the same time. That's why it's crucial to place decorations in a deliberate way so that they don't get in the way and instead invite people to linger.
This also applies during the Advent season: use empty areas or corners in your foyer to play with larger decorative objects. A classic is, of course, a richly decorated Christmas tree, which attracts everyone's attention with its lighting and shimmering baubles and suggests festive elegance to your guests. Gifts in matching colors placed underneath complete the picture.
If there is no room for a tree, you can opt for larger Christmas decorations that match the style of your interior. Deer, reindeer, nutcrackers, Santas, Nordic elves or angel figurines - the choice is yours.
Christmas decorations for the reception desk
It is also advisable to opt for understated decorations when decorating the reception desk or reception counter. Here, subtle accents such as a small Advent wreath, a poinsettia, a few candle holders or a cute decorative figure are often enough to make the area look festive but not overloaded. Make sure that the decorations harmonize with the rest of the room concept and create an inviting but professional atmosphere.

Christmas decorations for the hallway at home
Christmas decorations in the entrance area are also a beautiful eye-catcher at home, welcoming your guests as soon as they enter your home and creating a festive atmosphere. Generally speaking, Christmas decorations in the home can be a little more elaborate. Nevertheless, nothing should get in the way. If there is enough space, you can place larger Christmas decorations such as figurines or a small Christmas tree in the hallway.
If your entrance area is not particularly large, focus on the ceiling: hanging decorations, for example garlands or conifer branches adorned with baubles or fairy lights, can be attached to the ceiling and adjacent walls. These decorations have an almost magical flair - you, your family and your guests will have the feeling of being transported into a sparkling, mystical winter forest when you enter your home. Enhance this effect by decorating your banisters - if available - with matching garlands and LED lights. This will turn your hallway into an inviting harbinger of the festive atmosphere that awaits your guests in the rest of your home.
Festive Christmas decorations in the entrance area
Whether door wreaths, garlands, illuminated figures or a magnificently decorated Christmas tree - with the right Christmas decorations for the entrance area and outside, you can conjure up a festive atmosphere as soon as you enter. Take the opportunity to give your guests a warm, inviting feeling, whether in your hallway at home or in the reception area of a hotel or restaurant. Be inspired by classic decorative elements and modern accents and give your rooms a festive look without overloading them. In this way, you can create an unforgettable Christmas atmosphere that welcomes everyone!
