Over the years, some of the most effective displays have been very simple: a selection of beloved objects, a street where everyone put fairy lights in their window in February, a front-room disco.
Window Wanderland is a space where everyone can create something meaningful, magical or beautiful.
See your local festivals page for details. Sometimes local festival organisers ask for a small amount of money to cover costs or raise money for charity.
There are no expectations or judgements, so just have a go and leave your curtains open! Find inspiration in one of our tutorials on YOUTUBE, or wander around our Gallery. Have a read of our blogs for tips and advice. Ultimately, as long as people can see it from the street, it’s up to you what you make.
Absolutely, in fact higher up windows are easier to view from the street. You may find a simple graphic image works better than something detailed and complex. Even better, get your neighbours involved to make something across multiple windows and floors.
We strongly encourage you to sign up for a couple of reasons:
- It will help your organiser to gauge interest
- Without your dot on the map, people won’t know to come and see your window.
Your name or email will not be shown to your organiser, nor anyone who has the map.
