Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About Christmas Villages
Once you have found the best location for your Christmas village - under the tree, on top of the mantel, on an end table or as a centerpiece, the rest is pure creativity. Conveniently, there is not a specific way to organize or arrange a Christmas village scene, so you should feel the freedom to display the village houses and cottages, townspeople and accessories exactly the way you like.
As with other Christmas decorations, bins and boxes provide the most efficient storage solution for your village after the holidays are over. Most Christmas villages and accessories arrive with their own protective packaging, so that makes things easy and convenient too. Use larger bins and boxes for organizing, so that you will be ready to go come next season.
A lot of Christmas villages have lighting, movement or musical elements which many times require electricity. That means electrical cords. But there are a couple of quick and easy solutions to help hide them. Artificial snow bedding, makeshift sheets or blankets, or custom-made Christmas village mats can all conveniently aid in the concealing of electrical cords.
That all depends on the look you want for your Christmas village. Some people don't put anything beneath their display, and you don't really have to. However, you could choose to build out your Christmas village on a piece of wood or sturdy cardboard to give yourself mobility if you need to move it. Others arrange their display on a mirrored surface to create a unique effect. And, while helping you hide unseemly electrical cords, artificial snow bedding and custom mats and blankets can also add a layer of artistry to your village scene.
