We spend lots of hours at the office, every day. And when Christmas arrives, we naturally want to celebrate it with our co-workers and have some fun. Decorating the Christmas tree and the entire room you work in can bring a lot of fun to the staff members. Christmas time could also be an opportunity to bond the friendships with your colleagues. Make sure that you are allowed to decorate the whole office. Ask for permission to your superior. There is no real chance to refuse you, but asking for permission is very important. You don’t have to make decisions on your own as long as you work in a big group. Discuss your decoration plans with co-workers. They might belong to a different culture than yours. Try to eliminate any risk that your plan may be offensive to someone. Be honest in your intentions of making a nice Christmas gesture. Don’t spend too much time decorating. Your leaders may suspect that you try to avoid the working time. Opt for something simple and easy. Don’t start to do handmade paper decorations on your desk. Use decorations related to the brand you work for. I believe this is the best idea for an office environment. A small artificial Christmas tree is the best idea for the office lobby. You shouldn’t decorate it by yourself. Ask your colleagues to help you, this way you will have some fun time. You can bring decorations from home. Write on coloured paper a Christmas greeting for every person in the office. Personalize it with a little Christmas drawing or art work. Hanging stockings all over the office could also be fun, especially if people are encouraged to fill them with small gifts. Organize secret Santa and ask everyone to put a name on a ticket along with their gift. Ask your colleagues about the way they would prefer to display the Christmas lights installation. Some of them may be disturbed of blinking coloured lights or its singing theme. The wreath you choose for the office door should be simple but you could also make it funny and original. If your office has more than one door, don’t put a wreath on each one. It’s bad taste. The Christmas music is a good idea for the office, however don’t play it too loud. If you usually play music in your office, the Christmas music will also come naturally. But if you work in a silence environment, ask for permission and keep the volume low. Some companies have such activities that require permanent attention. Even if these days before Christmas are usual more relaxing and joyful, you shouldn’t forget about your daily tasks. Sometimes, people you work with are good friends and you want to celebrate every minute with them. Meet them in other places, as bars or restaurants, in your free time. After all, the office is a place where you have some duties. Send Christmas cards for free. It's easy to send a greeting cards!
