Dreary winter weather is reason enough to adorn your yard with outdoor Christmas decorations, isn't it? Whether inflatables or more traditional ornaments, outdoor Christmas decorations offer cheer at the time of year we need it most. Traditional outdoor Christmas decorations will be more to the liking of those seeking tasteful ornaments.

1. Outdoor Christmas Decorations: Metal Snowman Statue
Snowmen are classic outdoor Christmas decorations. But this one will last longer than the "snowball" variety: he's made of metal. The snowman wears a vest/apron that's supposed to make him look like a gardener. I'm not sure the designers pulled this off all that well, but he's colorful, nonetheless. Snow covers a portion of his hat and his holly broom (replete with berries). Standing 19" tall and supported on an 8-inch wide base, this hand-painted snowman will brighten your winter yard.
What I like about this outdoor Christmas decoration: A snowman isn't so Christmasy that you can't display it throughout the winter. Yet this snowman's holiday colors (red and green) and shovel decorated with holly make him just festive enough.
2. Outdoor Christmas Decorations: Door Flag
This holiday present door flag comes alive with a 3D bow. The colorful 28" x 74" banner is made of polyester for durability. Comes with two hooks for hanging.
What I like about this outdoor Christmas decoration: Such full-length door flags make a strong decorating statement, easily appreciated by passersby even if your house sets back significantly from the street. Yet for all that visibility, this is still a relatively tasteful ornament.
3. Outdoor Christmas Decorations: Inflatable Ferris Wheel
This inflatable ferris wheel actually rotates! Santa Claus, a snowman, and 4 other figures take a spin in it, basking in its light and in the holiday cheer that it will bring to every child who sees it.
What I like about this outdoor Christmas decoration: Regardless of what you think of airblown inflatables (and many people don't think much of them, as evidenced by my poll on Christmas yard decorations), you have to admit they've come a long way. The ability of the airblown inflatables on the market now to display movement is a major step forward -- if visibility is what you're looking for. They may never be regarded as tasteful, but if you decorate to please the kids, then a moving airblown inflatable is the ultimate!
