design element Winter Decorations

From welcoming wreaths and seasonal planters to illuminated trees, window boxes, and festive interior décor, our winter and holiday decorations bring warmth to every space indoors and out, creating a thoughtfully designed experience for this special season.

make it festive, inside and out

Winter decorations transform a property into a warm, inviting setting that feels intentional from the first approach through the interior spaces. Exterior elements include evergreen wreaths, custom planters, window boxes, and subtle lighting that highlight entrances, walkways, and architectural details. Inside, decorations range from softly styled mantles and stair garlands to fully decorated Christmas trees, table arrangements, and seasonal accents.

Some designs favor restrained, natural materials and muted tones, while others embrace layered greenery, ornaments, ribbon, and light for a more festive look. Together, these details allow each space to reflect the character of the home and the spirit of the season.

designs tailored to home and family

Every home approaches the holiday season differently, and winter decorations are most successful when they reflect the owner’s personal style and sense of celebration. Whether the goal is understated and natural or rich and festive, seasonal décor should feel appropriate to the architecture, landscape, and interior spaces it complements. Because these enhancements are temporary by nature, they offer an opportunity to refresh a home each year without long-term commitment.

Thoughtfully installed winter decorations require minimal maintenance, allowing families to enjoy the season while knowing everything can be easily adjusted and removed when winter comes to a close.

Helen S.

“They gave me an accurate budget and timetable up front and pretty much stuck to it - much to my husband's delight. They are not pushy about their services which I truly appreciate and which is why I continue to use them for maintenance, new plantings etc. Would highly recommend them!”
Sunitha D.
Newton, MA
“a Blade of Grass was a joy to work with from beginning to end. They were focused on us the entire process from brainstorming, designing, selecting and installation. We love our new landscaped backyard and know you will too!”
Pamela D.
West Roxbury, MA
“a Blade of Grass transformed our front yard from a barren wasteland of wood chips to a stunningly gorgeous garden. In late 2012, we embarked on a major project to rebuild our backyard and add a pool and patio. The result far exceeded our expectations. Heather and her crew maintain all of our gardens throughout the year, and are very responsive to our questions and requests.”
John H.
Weston, MA
“When designing the space Tom considered every detail including privacy concerns, colors, the reuse of existing plants, our likes and dislikes, cost, placement and size of walkways and stairs, shape of pool deck and where snow would be plowed in the winter. The result is a yard we enjoy all year-round. Since its design, the maintenance team at a Blade of Grass has maintained the yard's beauty.”
Dave H.
Waltham, MA
“Joanna had an encyclopedic knowledge of every plant we looked at. The installation crew led by Joel was also terrific. In fact, despite oppressive heat, they removed some old stones in the way and used them to repair and extend a fallen wall - a really thoughtful touch that went above and beyond the plan.”
