How to decorate your home for Christmas

As much as we love traditional tinsel and sparkly lights, sometimes it’s fun to switch it up and get inventive with your Christmas decoration ideas.

Thinking out of the box can add some seasonal style and give that extra ‘wow’ factor to your home over the Christmas holidays.

Like decorating your home with LEGO® bricks.

Yup, you heard correctly. We have the answer to achieving unconventionally cool Christmas decorations that you can re-use and rebuild again for years to come.

The best part is, you can make even more memories with your family by sitting around the fire and building them together – a true ‘hygge’ moment (that, for those of you who don’t know, means a feeling of comfort, coziness and contentment in Danish).

Here’s how to decorate your home for Christmas...

LEGO® Icons Santa’s Post Office

Complete your Christmas village with the LEGO Icons Santa’s Post Office.

The snow-topped post office houses Santa’s study and features a log fire, a sorting area, an entrance hall with a coffee machine and a writing area with a letter chute. It’s a stunningly cozy interior that will have you dreaming of being there.

And there’s plenty more on the outside too, with a hot-air balloon with an illuminating burner, a letter sorter, mailbox and sled, and – of course – a Christmas tree. And to watch over the proceedings are a Santa minifigure and four elf figures.

This set is bound to go straight to the top of your very own letter to Santa.

LEGO® Icons Wreath

A wreath hanging on the wall is one of the unmistakable signs that the holidays are finally here.

With the LEGO Icons Wreath, you can capture the essence of winter in a captivating seasonal centerpiece that has four hanging loops so it can be displayed in garland configuration.

Choose between red, blue and white berries or create your own combination. Position the orange slices, cinnamon and pinecones, and pose the rich green foliage for that perfect look.

The moment you open the box it will begin to look a lot like Christmas.

LEGO® Ideas Home Alone

When the McCallisters left their 8-year-old son Kevin Home Alone at Christmas in 1990, they launched one of the most beloved holiday movies ever.

With the LEGO Ideas Home Alone set, you can recreate Kevin’s mischievous, family-free holidays, and help him defend his home from the bumbling Wet Bandits, Harry and Marv.

Enjoy the iron-drop, swinging paint cans, collapsible shelves, zipline from the attic to the tree house and more. Plus, you can stage Kevin’s fake holiday party and the iconic aftershave scene. Merry Christmas, you filthy animals!
