Dallas is the best place in Texas to enjoy the holiday season! So you need to make sure that your HOA community lives up to that festive reputation.
This article gives you five easy and fun ideas for HOA holiday decorating and events. From light competitions to arts and crafts, there is something for all your residents.
1. Theme HOA Community Decorations
Every year you can choose a different festive theme for your neighborhood. Get the community involved by holding a vote and see which theme wins!
Some great ideas are "Winter Wonderland", "Woodland Christmas" or "Candy Cane Dreams". Then decorate all the communal areas with that theme to bring festive cheer!
Encourage your HOA residents to follow the theme when decorating their own homes as well.
To get the maximum effect from the decorations, ensure the community is looking its best. This means performing all the necessary maintenance, cleaning, and gardening before the holidays.
2. HOA Community Christmas Tree
Christmas trees can help boost happiness and festive cheer! Set up a Christmas tree in an accessible space in your HOA community. Decorate it using the theme you've chosen from the previous section!
Create an HOA property annual tradition of a tree-lighting ceremony! This offers the perfect way to get all the residents together and build a sense of community. Provide hot drinks, and Christmas music and hire a Santa Claus to enchant the children.
3. Beautiful Festive Lights
Illuminate your community with string and novelty lights. This could be light-up reindeer or candy canes! Use solar-powered lights if possible to keep utility bills down.
Not only is this very festive, but will also help make your community more accessible. It will make outdoor areas more magical and easier to navigate during dark evenings.
Try introducing a little friendly competition by running a lights contest. Offer some small prizes for the winners to encourage them to go all out!
Having a cohesive, active community is great for building a reputation as a great place to live. Hosting these events will be attractive to prospective residents, curious about HOA living.
4. Children-Friendly Christmas Decor
Involving kids in decorating is a great way to bring families in your HOA community together. Parents will be grateful for the HOA including their kids and will rate their HOA homes more highly!
Organize an event for kids' Christmas arts and crafts to decorate the community. This could be festive garlands, making tree decorations, or Christmas cards.
5. Interactive Christmas Wishes
Giving and receiving positive affirmations can be beneficial for mental health. So a fun idea is getting residents to write down their Christmas wishes for each other.
Write them on hangable decorations or Christmas cards. Then display them either in a communal area or on the Christmas tree. This kind of interactive decoration doesn't take much time, but has a big positive effect!
