7 Festive Christmas Porch Sign Ideas

Christmas is a time for people to express their goodwill and spirit of cheer.

Decorating a home's exterior is an extension of that expression. Options like inflatables and strings of lights are grandiose displays. They can also be time-consuming to set up.

An alternative is signs showcased on a house's porch or stoop. These can be just as dramatic. Here are seven DIY and store-bought Christmas porch sign ideas.

These are for homes with little porch or stoop real estate. They normally include components to affix the sign without damaging a wall.

Wall Hanger

Those who don't celebrate Christmas can still get in on the season's spirit with winter-themed signs.

Non-Denominational

Hanging chalk or white boards are eminently customizable and can display any message any time of the year. Awnings are advisable to protect from precipitation.

Chalk Board

Discarded home construction material like fence slats or doors are excellent canvases for distinctive creativity.

Recycled Medium

Anyone with electrical wiring skills can incorporate light bulbs into a sign that dazzles passersby. It's imperative that creations are rated for outdoors to prevent electrocution.

Marquee

"Have hot glue gun, will decorate." This is an opportunity to use leftover scraps from other projects. Apply lacquer for durability so the piece can be used year after year.

Decoupage

If storage is a concern, fabric banners can be rolled up for easy stowing anywhere at the end of the season. Machine washability will keep them looking new.
