Decorating Ideas for your Christmas Stairs!


Today I thought I might share some of my favourite ideas on how to decorate a staircase at Christmas. I have pinned so many staircase pictures because that is the place where I usually hang our stockings since we don't have a fireplace. 

Decorating Ideas for your Christmas Stairs


I really want to make it look much more festive this year and I think I have some great ideas that I might be able to try.

    Oh these ideas are all just beautiful Natasha! I have a banister I decorate every year, but I really like the idea of the stockings going up the railing! I never thought of that. I may do that this year on my railing! Even the red & white paper bells are so decorative. I also like the cards hanging from the garland. Nice way to display them rather than in a card basket. Thanks for the ideas. Have a great weekend.

    Hi Natasha,
    Have not been around in blogland for quite a while, too busy with the gardens. It is fun to come back though and read your lovely inspiring blogs.
    A few years ago a shop salled these guirlandes made of acorns. I just loved the naturalness of them and put them up in the room and twisted around the staircase. The nice thing about it is that you can attach just any greenery or Christmassy items. It looks fab!
    Another thing to do is to put little cup candles in glass bowls (or pretty jam jars) on every step of the staircase.
    Thanks for stopping by on my blog!
    Have a happy weekend!

    Bad typing mistake there: salled is of course sold!

    Your really making me miss my stair case! I use to go all out on it, and it would be beautiful, to me anyway. I do not have a stair case in this house, and miss it at Christmas time. I am your latest follower, can't wait to come back here to get ideas for the holidays.

    I've been doing Christmas all last weekend at a Tea Room where I help do the styling, so I am in the Christmas mood, even if it is still 90, in Texas. I just finished black and white stairs, in my over 100 yr old house, I can't wait to decorate for Christmas, so thanks for all the lovely inspirations shots!

    I dont have a staircase but I loved the one with the cards I have an extra wide doorway between my kitchen and dinging room and did something similar to that across the top after seeing it here.

Christmas is forever, not for just one day,
for loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away
like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf.
The good you do for others is good you do yourself...
Norman Wesley Brooks, "Let Every Day Be Christmas," 1976
