Metal Holiday Tin Soldier Wall Decoration

Updated on October 27, 2022

Rustic Porch Holiday Display

These two are some of the cutest outdoor decorations for the porch area. They are wall decorations and make the outdoors come alive in the traditional Christmas spirit of decorating. I always have liked toy soldier decorations, and this is the first time I have seen this type of decoration at such an affordable price. Along with little potted Christmas tree shrubs, this makes the most adorable display.

I plan to set them alongside my front entrance door with my potted Christmas trees flanking their sides. Add a holiday wreath and some string lights around the door, and voila, you have a beautiful entrance into your home. I know children will love these soldiers. They scream Christmas and Babes in Toyland, a lovely way to decorate.

These outdoor holiday decorations represent the nostalgic Christmas Fantasy. They are over 4 feet tall and hand painted with beautiful detailing. Each one comes with a notch to easily hang alongside your entranceway. The complete measurement is 7.5 comprehensive and 45 inches in height. Large enough to make a Christmas statement.

Don't miss out. Decorations won't last at this price and will last for years. They may also be perfect as an indoor decoration. They would look so cute mounted near your Christmas tree or fireplace. So complete the Christmas fantasy by getting an early start on your holiday decorating. I plan to order mine today. I don't want to be the one who missed out on a great holiday decoration this year. So hurry and place your order today.

Holiday Decor

Outdoor Christmas decorations present the Holiday mood and the basis of hundreds of treasured moments conveyed between relatives and friends. Whether it's as unadorned as a red vase on your window or a huge display outdoors, it represents Christmas sentiment. You can create holiday space by adding outdoor Christmas decorations. The exterior of your residence is an attractive way to communicate the spirit of Christmas. Your family, friends, and neighbors will enjoy seeing your creative Holiday Decor. The power of outside Christmas decorations is genuinely unique.

Make sure you plan your outdoor display using a theme to convey the holiday. It would help if you decided how you intend to light up the show for nighttime viewing. Some neighborhoods have contests to encourage widespread outdoor decoration; if you are lucky enough to live in one of these areas, you probably have a great collection of decorating supplies. If not, it is an excellent time to start looking for items to add to your display during the Garage sale season. If you like, Goodwill always has a unique selection of pre-loved decor.

Dollar Tree Christmas Decor

My Dollar Tree Christmas decorations are fast and easy to create. They carry an upscale look with inexpensive items from Dollar Tree. I make my decor using things I find and pair them together to create impressive holiday decorations by gluing them together and painting them to make cohesive and sound design

Here is a list of some of the products you can find to use creatively for your Christmas displays.

  • glitter

  • Hot Glue gun

  • Foam ball
  • Pipe cleaners
  • Globe ornaments

I like to watch Youtube videos that use Dollar tree items for holiday scenery. You will find many videos to instruct you and inspire you to create these inexpensive items.

How to Make a Tin Soldier in Time for Christmas

If you are a do-it-yourselfer, you can make a tin soldier from items in your recycling container. Using tin cans and other materials, you can create easy decorations.

To make life-sized soldiers, you must stop at your local building supply store. Cardboard concrete forms or aluminum duct work are perfect for creating a large structure. Depending on how large you soldier your design, there are various sizes.

Again, many Youtube videos help you create a structure that will last for years of holiday enjoyment. I have placed one of them below so you can see just how easily you can build one. If you aren't ready for a life-sized soldier, you can start using discarded metal cans to make a miniature one for starters.
