Oh, How Kitsch – Our Top 5 WordPress Christmas Plugins!

No need to panic, Christmas is still 41 days away! Plenty of time to order gifts or think about this year's Christmas tree and decorations. Time is tighter for those who want to give their own website a festive look. That's why we've researched and compiled the best WordPress plugins for Christmas and the Advent season for you – so you don't have to. But beware, as with decorations in, around, or inside your own home: less is more, and if you have snowflakes, you might not really need the flying Santa Claus. Here is our list of our favourite WordPress plugin picks, in no particular order, for all Christmas fans!

1. Advent Calendar

If you want to kickstart your marketing activities last minute and in time for Christmas, you can do so quickly with the ready-made Advent calendar plugin Adventcount. Alongside individual layout options, you can also define whether it's a simple Advent calendar, a calendar with questions and answers, or one with data queries. There are hardly any limits to your creativity, and the plugin is ready to use for the duration.

2. Snowflake Overload

The all-time favourite 5Sec Snow, which is not only popular for WordPress but can also be integrated into any other website using HTML. From small to large snowflakes to a snowstorm, four different types of flakes are available, and if that's still not enough, you can even make gifts rain down.

3. WooCommerce Gift Wrapper

Is there anything more pleasant than having your Christmas gifts delivered to your doorstep already wrapped? If you prefer this convenience and want to offer it to your customers, the WooCommerce Gift Wrapper Plus is perfect. Products can be managed individually, specific product categories completely excluded, or the entire shopping cart wrapped. Or individual product categories can be excluded.

4. WordPress Christmas Panda

Christmas Panda is another plugin we don't want to keep from you, because it can always get kitschier. Fancy a little preview: The fir branches in the header and footer can be combined with light snowfall, and then Santa Claus pops up on the page too.

5. Christmasify

Last but not least, the all-rounder among Christmas plugins for WordPress. It's essentially the all-in-one solution for website operators who simply can't get enough Christmas cheer on their websites. Christmasify! has it all. From Christmas music, to snowfall, to decorations, Santas, and even a suitable Christmas font, this plugin offers everything to make Christmas fans' hearts beat faster!
