As much as I love my hometown, Christmas decorations is not a field it excels at. Surely there are lights on the streets and festive arcades (not to mention a holiday bar), but let’s be honest, there are so many cities abroad that have better Christmas decorations than Athens!
And that’s exactly what I enjoyed last year while living in Boston: the Christmas decorations! On a previous post I’ve shared a lot of light decorations around the city, both public and private ones. The best light decoration and display was at Faneuil Hall, where Blink!, which is an hourly light and sound display, takes place.
This year, I’ve come back with daytime photos of beautiful Christmas wreaths adorning the doors (and sometimes windows) of private homes. My favorite neighborhoods to walk and admire this kind of decorations are Beacon Hill and South End.
What about you, have you visited Boston in Christmas? Which city that you’ve visited in Christmas has the best decorations?
What a beautiful post, these are great! 🙂 I have spent one Christmas in the US but it was in Arizona and I didn’t see wreaths like these!
I’m pretty sure the decorations differ from place to place in the US!
Such a cute article!!! Love the feeling of the pictures! So festive <3
Boston was very festive indeed!
Υπέροχα! Με αποτελείωσες…
ήταν πολύ όμορφα!!
Great decorations!
beautiful indeed!
The Americans are the best when it comes to decorate! The stores around New York just decorated the streets and unveiled the Christmas Windows…. and it’s WONDERFUL!! 😉

I can only imagine!! I was in NYC last year during the holidays (between Christmas and New Years) and the decorations were amazing!
You have lovely photographs in this post. Visual candy! I’m a big fan of wreaths and I try to make one annually, and each one is different. I love the look of the decorations they have in Boston as shown in your post. That more traditional – and less commercial look – is something i find really beautiful.
Thank you! I loved the wreaths in Boston! I pretty sure that in most of these houses the wreaths are made by florists, especially in Beacon Hill, which is an affluent neighborhood.
I love your photos! I can’t believe how much effort people have put into their decorations – quite extraordinary. I love how Christmas wreaths can really make a neighbourhood look special. Our little village really comes into its own at Christmastime. You’ve inspired me to take more photos of it. Thank you. #MondayEscapes
Indeed they put a lot of effort into decorating their homes! I’m glad that I inspired you to explore your village more! that’s what I did yesterday in my hometown, Athens!
Absolutely love this! The Christmas decor in Boston has been a-mazing!
amazing indeed!
I would most certainly love to go to Boston at Christmas time – or anytime in fact. The christmas wreaths are pretty wonderful! Wishing you a very happy new year. Thanks for linking up with #MondayEscapes
