This mailbox decoration comes pre-lit with 35 warm white LED bulbs that make the glittery faux snow twinkle even more brilliantly.
I think National Tree offers the best artificial greenery out there. Their three-foot mailbox swag has a base of traditional bottle-brush style branches and is topped with full, realistic, spiky white pine needles for a total of 68 tips. The branches and pinecones are flocked with lifelike icy snow and tipped with glitter to sparkle in the light.
The lights are battery-powered (not included) and run on an automatic timer so they’ll turn on for six hours and then turn themselves off for 18 hours. The swag has two tie down straps to attach it to your mailbox.

These mailbox and car-safe magnets are shaped like traditional Christmas lights and are highly reflective so they light up at night when cars pass by.
You get 12 bulb-shaped magnets with one of each color of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. Each one measures about four inches long by two inches wide so they’re large enough to be seen from far away.
Being magnets they’re easy to apply, remove, and reuse. The material is weatherproof and fade-resistant for years of use.
The reflective nature of these double as a safety feature to help your mailbox stand out at night to avoid being hit by cars or plows.

If you’re looking for something 3D that will really stand out, grab one of these inflatable sledding snowmen for your mailbox before they’re gone.
This adorable snowman inflates for a 3D look that sits on top of your mailbox. The sled is securely attached to the fabric base which wraps around and is secured underneath the box.
The durable Suntex fabric is weatherproof and fade-resistant so you can use the decoration year after year. It also creates a winter wonderland scene on both sides of the mailbox.

A different take on mailbox decor, Elf Logic’s LED Christmas Tree Mailbox Topper slots right over the top of your standard-size mailbox, sort of like a headband for your mailbox. (That’s a totally reasonable comparison, right?) It comes with a zip tie to fasten it in place but you may need more than one for extra security depending on your mailbox.
The lights on the tree are powered by two AA batteries (not included) and I like they are set behind the tree instead of on top of it so they light up the translucent plastic making the entire tree glow instead of just a few little lights.
It comes with a remote control for the lights which can be set to come on automatically at night on a timer. The lights can also be set to different flash settings.

This mailbox wrap secures quickly and easily to your mailbox with magnets. It’s weatherproof, fade-resistant, and reusable.
It covers both sides of the mailbox and is sized to fit standard mailboxes (18 inches by 21 inches) but does come in a larger 25.5 inches by 21 inches to fit oversized mailboxes.

Okay, it’s more of a decorative mailbox than a mailbox decoration but I had to include this Six-Foot North Pole Mailbox because look at it–it’s adorable.
It’s a fully functioning mailbox so if your current one isn’t stationary swap it out with this one make your home the most festive stop on your mail carrier’s route.
It includes everything from the red and white candy cane pole, “North Pole” sign, working red mailbox with faux snow topper, and red and white metal base.

This pine mailbox swag has added sprigs of holly to their mix of evergreens for a unique effect that shouts Christmastime.
The bushy pine needles are lightly flocked and accented with holly berries and pinecones. It’s not the most realistic pine swag on the list, but it gets high marks for looking so festive.
At 72 branch tips, and with some fluffing post-shipping, this can be a full swag. It’s three feet long and has a wire base that you can bend to conform to the shape of your mailbox.

This mailbox wrap is sized to fit standard mailboxes and attaches with magnetic strips and the illustration of the snowman and his bird friends is so cute.

The detail on this Christmas mailbox cover is stunning and the colors pop. The best thing is that it’s easy to install and secure.

This mailbox swag is full and tall with a bright red Christmas ribbon that stands out in the snow.
Bushy white pine needles stretch three feet long and are accented with real pinecones and artificial red berries. It’s lightly flocked, but not so much that it loses its bright green color. The branches will need some fluffing when it arrives, like any artificial pine, but with a little help, it has some great volume.
This swag has a wired base that conforms to your mailbox and attaches with florist’s wire.
