Christmas classroom doors can be based on a Polar Express theme, Nativity theme, Candy land theme, Gingerbread theme, or Santa theme. You can go all out by decorating the surrounding wall with elements to match the theme. Your Christmas door can have the traditional red, green and gold colors, or you can have a blue Christmas in your classroom. You can also go with a Grinch theme. See Grinch themed classroom doors in this blog post.

Christmas Classroom Doors

Make a Polar Express classroom door: I love this Polar Express classroom door. A tap light was used for the train’s light. Amazing design! You can use this Polar Express train cutout to make your own.

Candy Land Christmas Classroom Doors: Recreate the first Candy Land door using a striped border trim, peppermint candy cutouts, a brickwall wallpaper, ornamental bells, window awnings, and faux window decals. The decorations around the other doors include Christmas themed cut outs like snowflakes, candy cutouts, gingerbread man cutouts, and a candy cane lane sign.

Gingerbread House Christmas classroom doors: Turn your classroom door area into a gingerbread house for Christmas. The first gingerbread house was decorated with peppermint candy cutouts and a large inflatable gingerbread man. The second door was covered in dark green bulletin board paper, the walls have brown paper (#ad). Colorful plastic plates represent gumdrops, and little gingerbread men and large candy cut-outs are everywhere. The third door has a stonework vinyl on the floor.

Santa’s Workshop classroom doors: This classroom door is the entrance to Santa’s Workshop. The sign on the door was created with these letters.

Design a Fireplace Door bulletin board: This green Christmas themed classroom door has a beautiful fireplace made from a red brick border trim. The teacher wanted a fireplace for her classroom door but she didn’t like any of the bulletin board set fireplaces, or the roll of brick looking paper. So she cut the border trim into the lengths she needed, and glued it to the poster board. The other door was coveren with a red brick photo backdrop.

Hang banners on either side of your Christmas Door: Here’s another Christmas classroom door. For the fist door, red and black buffalo plaid banners hang on either side of the door, and little stockings are all over the door itself. Grinch banners are hung around the second door.

Christmas tree classroom doors: The first door was decorated with a Peanuts Charlie Brown Christmas classroom door bulletin board set. Also, you can add Peanuts cut-outs to a large Christmas tree cut out to create an original unique bulletin board idea like this countdown to Christmas bulletin board above.

Use Christmas door covers: An easy way to quickly decorate your classroom door for Christmas is to cover it with a Christmas themed door cover. The first door cover says ‘Merry Christmas’ with a peppermint candy theme and the second door cover has the same words with Nutcracker soldiers. See more Christmas classroom door covers in this blog post.

Decorate Around your door: This ‘Merry and Bright’ bulletin board set was used to decorate the wall around a teacher’s classroom door frame. The second door was decorated with a door cover and candy cutouts were spread out on the wall.
