Most people celebrating Christmas in their home will want to decorate it in some way, weather you just go for something simple indoors or outfit your whole house in an overblown Christmas lighting display making things a little more festive at this time of year is great fun.
One simple area to decorate which often seems to get missed however is decorating your shutters. Decorating shutters is easy and there are a great number of ways you can do it. Gift-wrapped shutters
One really simple technique is to use up any spare wrapping paper by gift wrapping your shutters, it really is as simple as it sounds, wrap the shutters with wrapping paper as tightly as you can front and back, then to be really creative tie some ribbon around the shutters too so that they look just like giant presents. - Well who doesn't want a giant present at Christmas?
Hang ornaments
Why should the tree be the only feature of the room to benefit from Christmas ornaments, why not deck out your shutters with some too? Again this is super simple just pick some of your more light weight tree ornaments, and attach them to your shutters with wood sae tape, if you like you could get lots of ornaments and use them to make Christmas related shapes like stars or Christmas trees.
Fairy Lights
Another simple but really effective techniques is to attach fairly lights to your shutters, use wood safe tape to attach them in whatever pattern you choose. Fairly lights are great for making rooms feel Christmassy but they also share some of your festive cheer with the outside world too as they will be visible from the window.
Snowflakes
Every child loves making paper snowflakes at Christmas. Just fold a square of paper into four then use scissors to cut out fun shapes, when you unfold the paper with some luck and practice you'll have made a snow flake. Why not make several of these and stick them in patterns on your shutters.
