Ideas for Your Christmas in July Celebration
Celebrate Christmas in July – with a theme!
Okay, let’s get this right. Christmas in July is technically not “Christmas”. So, to set it apart from the end of year event (and maintain December’s supremacy), why not celebrate Christmas in July with a twist on a standard Christmas theme. The fun with this is you can change it up every year too if you want. Here are some ideas to celebrate Christmas in July with a little uniqueness but without straying too far away from traditional:Quirky Christmas
Make use of some quirky Christmas décor to fit with your Christmas theme. See Santa and his reindeer incognito or on vacation perhaps. Or you could introduce other characters to celebrate Christmas in July with instead:- how about a Christmas mermaid like the one we feature on our pom pom mermaid cushion cover
- see Santa heading to the jacuzzi or to the pool with this pom pom Santa cushion cover showcasing him in a lifesaver ring rocking some sunnies and a floral dress shirt
- this retro Christmas car beach sign is great to include for a holiday vibe-theme as well
Christmas in the woods
Decorate your Christmas in July celebrations with friends of the forest. The Christmas Cart has a range of adorable animals such as deer, owls, birds and furry squirrels to create a magical fauna theme. Our Christmas animals are available in a range of materials including burlap and metal. Some of our favourite pieces include:- if you want to celebrate Christmas in July with a delicate flavour, you can’t go past these gorgeous light pink fur birds with rhinestones or a natural sisal squirrel to feature amongst the collection
- or for a more masculine look, check out these antique black reindeer buck ornaments coupled with a Hygee Christmas poster, which sports stag horns to match
Celebrate Christmas in July, Australiana-style!
Let our nation’s finest do the talking – celebrate Christmas in July with our flora and fauna. With the likes of our Christmas emu and Christmas kangaroo, you can be feeling right at home, no matter where in the world you celebrate Christmas in July this year.Celebrate Christmas in July – trimming tips
With your theme to celebrate Christmas in July sorted, don’t forget to match your theme with the catering too. Warm and wonderful, light and bright, casual or sophisticated. Table settings and arrangements should be heavily dictated by the type of catering you go for when you celebrate Christmas in July. For example, burlap table placements work just as well with barbeque catering as they do with cold buffets and finger food. Burlap is also very versatile in terms of matching a Christmas in July theme. It works especially great with Australiana, beach or flora and fauna-based themes. Fairy lights never go astray, no matter what time of the year. But perhaps you would like to celebrate Christmas in July with less-obtrusive ‘festive lights’ and opt for something more subtle. These copper seed fairy lights are perfect to add a bit of festive twinkle without going too fancy or over the top. If you are opting for Christmas in July celebrations that are more of a classic nature, then you might prefer to keep your theme closer to the real deal. But there is always the opportunity to introduce an interesting spin on traditional. Here are a couple of ideas to get you started:- replace traditional Christmas baubles with a mix of stunning glass finials and baubles instead. See this beautiful rose gold-coloured set we have available at The Christmas Cart as a perfect example
- change up standard candles and candlesticks with more interesting items like this owl pinecone Christmas candle
- to make your Christmas table that extra bit special, gift your guests with a personalised festive wine glass rather than using standard glassware
