Deck the Halls... in July? It's the most wonderful time of the year... in July! That's right, we're throwing convention out the window and decking our halls to resemble an alpine ski lodge in the middle of December. So grab your Santa hat, crank up the festive tunes, and let's turn your home into a cozy winter wonderland, complete with snowflakes and eggnog – because why wait until December to spread some holiday cheer?
Don't take the decorations too seriously: Festive banners with cheeky messages like "Santa's Naughty List" or "Let's Get Elfed Up" and mistletoe hung in unconventional places just to name a few ideas guaranteed to get laughs. Or try our Inappropriate Christmas balloons.
Christmas Lights Galore: It's time to unleash your inner Clark Griswold and get lit – in July! String twinkling lights on every surface imaginable, from the fireplace mantel if you're lucky enough to have one, to the ceiling fan, throw perfectionism out the window, the goal is tacky.
DIY Fake Fireplace: Don't have a fireplace to hang your stockings by? No problem! Create your own cozy hearth with some cardboard, brick wallpaper, and a string of battery-powered LED candles. The best part of Christmas in July is decorations can be as tacky as the ugly Christmas sweaters!
Christmas Tree Extravaganza: Who says Christmas trees are just for Christmas? Set up multiple trees throughout your home, or just start decorating random trees around your yard, there are no rules here, except to make it fun. The perfect addition to a Christmas in July Christmas tree is tacky Christmas ornaments. Embarrass your teenage kids and fill the tree with their Christmas creations from kindergarten, mixed with an array of tacky decor found in $2 shops plus a few funny, and rude ones from the Inappropriate Gift Co if you were lucky enough to get some over the last few years.
Hot Cocoa Bar: Nothing says cozy winter wonderland like a steaming mug of hot cocoa. Set up a DIY hot cocoa bar in your kitchen, complete with marshmallows, whipped cream, and all the festive favourites like Whisky, Peppermint Vodka, Tequila, and Kahlua.
Christmas Carol Karaoke Night: Gather your friends and family for a night of festive fun with Christmas carol karaoke. Belt out your favorite holiday tunes while sipping on eggnog and munching on rum balls. Just be prepared for some questionable renditions of "Jingle Balls."
Ugly Christmas Sweater Party: Dust off your most garish holiday sweater and throw an ugly Christmas sweater party to remember. Encourage your guests to channel their inner fashion disasters and compete for the title of the ugliest sweater. Bonus points if you can find a sweater that lights up and don't forget the outfits for the pets!
Rude Food Spread: Add a touch of fun to your Christmas decor with a buffet of rude food, we have some great suggestions in a previous blog post, or you could try your hand at some risqué gingerbread cookies using our cookie cutters, perhaps for a take-home goodie bag?
With these tips and tricks, you'll have your home transformed into a cozy winter wonderland in no time. So embrace the absurdity, crank up the Christmas tunes, and let the holiday cheer flow! After all, who says you can't have Christmas in July?
