Santa Claus is the most famous fictional character associated with Christmas. Though it’s been a very long argument among Christmas whether it’s right to include him or celebrate with his existence during Christmas season, at home we were never really bothered. He’s a part of what the society remembers, not that they worship him but the story of his journey around every household’s chimney is told on movies and TV shows. Whether it’s real or just a fantasy, the holiday season is made even more magical because of Santa’s adventures with his elves and reindeer.
Why is that old and fat guy likable? Well, he is described to be bubbly, funny and lovable among kids. He is described as generous to the young wishers who wrote him letters, telling him they have been nice and not naughty. With his remarkable “ho-ho-ho” laugh, even adults are undeniably fan of him too. In some Christmas party and gatherings, someone would dress up like Santa and mimic him walk or talk to set up a joyful mood. You may not have enough budget to rent or buy a Santa suit, why not try doing something else? How about looking on your storage area for there could be some paint leftovers? Or see if there are scrapbook papers that you could use. If you have red, white, yellow and black then you are all set for some DIY Santa Decoration Ideas. Some are really easy ideas and some that would take an extra effort. Let’s begin!

I’m surely gonna try lots of the decoration ideas above and I know that my kids would be so excited to see them done. That red suit will always be associated with Santa Claus, alone. He is one character that simply adds spark all throughout the Christmas celebration. For as long the moral lesson of introducing him to kids is about telling them that nice kids gets what they want while naughty kids don’t, I will keep on believing that he isn’t a bad story to tell the young ones after all. Let’s put away too much negativity and just spread the goodness of something. Let all those excited for Christmas 2016 see this collection by sharing on your social media. Do you have any other ideas? Please write us on our comment section. Enjoy everyone and let’s practice our ho-ho-ho’s!
