A Fun Guide for Regular People on How to Decorate Kitchen Pendant Lights for Christmas

by

Hello, my fellow homemaker! Do you feel the change in the air around you? The cold is settling in, and the outdoors transforms into a winter paradise. Yes, it is almost Christmas time, and that means you should start the decorating while you can. Among my favorite things about the holidays is adding a touch of merriment to the kitchen pendant lights. Now, you may wonder why attach any decorations to the pendant light, but the answer is—where do you spend most of your time during the holiday? Exactly—the kitchen! Here is a fun guide on how to make that happen:

First, Why?

Indeed, before wanting something, you must understand why you do it. So, your kitchen is one of the central places during holidays, where you whip up gingerbread and prepare magic. Therefore, decorating the pendant lights:

  • Makes everything cosier;

  • Creates a central focal point;

  • Shows personality.

Second, What You Need?

You do not have to acquire a junk of stuff to adorn your kitchen pendant lights. Most of it you will find around the house. Get ready the following:

  • Batter-Operated String Light;

  • Ornaments;

  • Garlands;

  • Mini-Wreaths;

  • Ribbons;

  • Hooks or Clips.

So, let us simmer down a little from the holiday cheer and talk safety. Do not put decorations immediately around or close to bulbs; that is especially the case if the lights get pretty hot. Wherever you can, try to switch out your ordinary bulbs for LEDs—they are cooler and long-lasting.

Step-By-Step: Dressing up your Pendant lights

Step 1: Choose a Theme

While you are on your way to design your canvas website, the first thing you need to do is choose a theme for it. Do you opt for the traditional red and green, or maybe a snow-kissed white and blue reload — Winter Wonderland? Maybe something nice and rustic — burlap and pine cones? Obviously, this is determined by the theme you have picked out, which will help direct your decisions about decorations.

Step 2: Wrap with Garland

Wrap a garland from the base of the pendant light. This will form the base of your decorations. You can hang a basic leaf garland to get that naturalist feel.

Step 3: Add Ornaments

Add small ornaments in the garland or dangle them from the light fixture. Small hooks or clips are used that you can attach to your cloth safely. Haha, mix and match colors and shapes!

Step 4: Add Some String Lights

String battery-operated light minis along the garland or following the stem of the pendant. It provides this magical sparkle without taking over the room.

Step 5: Complete with a bow

They can be used to tie around the base of the light or let them drape nonchalantly down. Smaller bows can also be made for a more complex look.

FAQs: Got a burning question?

  • Can I attach real foliage to my pendant lights?

Absolutely! Fresh foliage like pine or holly would keep a natural feel. It also keeps well if you put it in the fridge but make sure to keep away from wet or hot locations as it dries easily.

  • How can I hang decorations without interfering with the light fixtures?

Hang On: Adhesive hooks or those clips made to hang holiday decorations work well for this. Very soft on surfaces and they peel right off after the holiday.

  • My pendant lights are too high to reach?

Can’t reach that high fixture, Try an extendable duster! Or, you can work on some other part in your kitchen for decoration.

  • Are There Any Types of Decor That Are a No-No?

Do not use any heavy decorations that could burden the fixture. Lastly, avoid flammable materials near hot bulbs.
