Pricing and Costs of Christmas Decorations
Choose the right Christmas decorations for your office...and budget
Every year it seems as if more and more retailers are stocking up on new Christmas decorations for businesses. Business owners are getting into the holiday spirit in many ways. Even if you don’t buy an expensive, pre-lit and decorated Christmas tree, decorations for the office can be beautiful and festive on any budget.When checking out the pricing and costs of Christmas decorations, think about the types of decorations that would work the best for your company:
1. Consider wreaths as the perfect Christmas decorations for business.
2. Enjoy a beautiful Christmas tree in any corner of your office.
3. Utilize lights to brighten up the rest of your Christmas decorations.
Use wreaths as a great way to spruce up your current outdoor Christmas decorations
Wreaths are one of the most versatile Christmas decorations for business. Much of the cost depends on whether you get a real wreath or an artificial one. But this is a great way to exhibit large-scale Christmas decorations on the front of your office building, for example, so keep the extra cost in mind when planning the rest of your business Christmas decorations budget.
Try: If you want to make a big impression with your Christmas decorations, then consider one of these 6-foot wreaths from Artificial Christmas Wreaths.com. It comes with or without lights and the prices range from about $360 up to about $430. This Christmas decorations business sells just about every kind of Christmas wreath you can imagine but they are one of the very few stores that sell wreaths that large. If smaller is more your style, but you still want a variety to choose from, then check out Rockdale Wreaths. Their prices are very reasonable for real Christmas wreaths and are about $20 up to about $260.
Start with a beautiful tree and then add Christmas tree decorations for the perfect finishing touch
Christmas trees are probably the first thing you think of when you are considering Christmas decorations for business. The size of the tree you choose plays a large part in the price. A smaller, artificial tree in a pretty pot to fit in an entry-way will be much less expensive than a large tree to go in the center of a 2-story atrium. Most online Christmas tree sellers carry both, so be sure to check out various sites.
Try: Tree Classics is a great place to start when you are looking for trees to use as business Christmas decorations. These particular trees are perfect for a lobby or reception area as they come self-contained in a beautiful urn. Prices range from about $90 up to around $150 depending on the size you choose. While Balsam Hill can do smaller trees as well, their version of commercial trees are large-scale Christmas trees that are up to 15 feet tall. These range in price from anywhere between $240 all the way up to about $7,400.
Light up the season with sparkling lights as business Christmas decorations
When it comes time to buy Christmas decorations, business owners will usually add lights to the existing mix. Whatever retailer you choose, lights are the least expensive option for both indoor and outdoor Christmas decorations.
Try: If you’re looking to brighten up your office, check out the All American Christmas Company website. These mini-lights cost from around $6 up to about $13 per set, depending on the number of lamps on the set. If you’re looking for less traditional lights, but still at great prices, stop by ChristmasLights.com. Some of their best-selling light strings cost about $6 all the way up to around $420. This store is more expensive, yet they have a bigger commercial light selection.
- Depending on the size of your company and budget, large scale Christmas decor or large scale Christmas decorations may not be an option. Ask employees to bring in their own decorations to add a festive look to the office.
