Some might argue that one of the best aspects of the holiday season is getting to decorate, and one of the best places for displaying favorite decorations is in the front yard. The design options are endless, allowing you to really get creative and display all your favorite characters — and what better character of Christmas is there than the Grinch?
If you're looking to feature some Grinch Christmas decorations in your yard this year, consider the Gemmy Pre-Lit Grinch and Max on Sled Inflatable, which stands 6 feet tall to welcome Christmas in your yard.
Grinch outdoor Christmas decorations can vary in size, running from less than a foot tall to a towering height of 6 feet or more. It's important to read the product description carefully and make sure the size is what you're looking for.
Most Grinch outdoor Christmas decorations require stakes or tethers to help keep them firmly on the ground, especially through harsh winds, rain or snow. These additional accessories are typically included with the decoration, but not always. Read the product description to ensure you don't need to purchase them separately.
For Grinch outdoor Christmas decorations that inflate, a powerful pump can be very important. Most pumps can inflate an inflatable within 10 seconds, while others may take a bit longer. Some pumps are also louder than others, which could become an issue if you're using the inflatable inside.
Because your Grinch outdoor Christmas decorations are outside in the elements, it's important to find durable ones that will last so you can use them for years. Most inflatables are made of a waterproof nylon or other synthetic materials that help resist rain and snow.
Plastic or cardboard decorations are rain-resistant by nature but may need an extra-durable stake made of wood or metal to keep them firmly in the ground.
Arguably one of the best features on any Grinch outdoor decoration is the addition of LED lights, giving the decoration a truly dazzling appearance. Some are brighter than others, so it might be a good idea to look through reviews to get a sense of just how bright the lights really are.
Grinch outdoor Christmas decorations come in a wide range of prices. The cheapest ones tend to be rather small and are usually made of plastic, running from around $30-$80. More expensive ones are usually inflatables that are 6 to 8 feet in height, running as high as $115-$200.
A. Some Grinch outdoor decorations come with a couple extra lights in case they go out. If not, you can purchase new bulbs separately. There are many videos that can show you how to replace them if necessary.
A. Most Grinch outdoor decorations, if they require power, detail how long the power cord is in the product description. This helps you determine what the best placement in your yard would be for it to receive power. Extension cords are a great way to make that power cord longer.
