How to Decorate a Golf Cart for Christmas

The Christmas Spirit

If you live in a community with lots of golf carts, how about dressing yours up for Christmas? Make it stand out from the crowd either on the street, on the golf course or in a Christmas parade. Here are ideas to get you started.

Instructions

1. 

   You can start simply by wrapping Christmas garlands around the uprights. To get even more eye-catching, cover the roof and fill the back seat with more Christmas greenery.

2. 

   You can pick out a theme and carry it out. Start with something dramatic and build around that, like this gingerbread house. By adding the sign, strings of candy, and gingerbread boy and girl, they develop the theme to the fullest.

3. 

   Filling the cart with Christmas stuffed animals and some tinsel on the roof conveys the Christmas theme very easily. Be sure to wear your Santa hat.

4. 

   At night, holiday lights really dress up a golf cart. Use a small generator to power your display. Here they have lighted icicles hanging from the roof and lighted snowmen (like you use in a lawn display).

5. 

   If your cart is red (or green or white), you have a head start. Here they carried the red and white theme out with a dramatic display of poinsettias.

6. 

   Think outside the usual Christmas colors and themes to make your cart unique. Here they take a Florida theme and top the cart with a pink Christmas tree. Attaching a large, lighted pink flamingo to the back of the cart completes the off-beat theme.

Tips & Warnings

• Drive up and down your own street a few times, to make sure nothing falls off.

• Use care attaching things to the painted surface. Don't damage the paint.

• Check with the golf course before decorating a cart that you use for golfing. They might not allow it on the course.
