31 Christmas blog ideas to get you over writer’s block

So many bloggers get stuck with post ideas. Many are just starting out so might not be used to thinking up lots of post ideas. Others might have been writing for years and can’t think of anything new to write. I’m sure blogger’s block is a thing (if not, it should be). Although I rarely get stumped for post ideas.

After 8 years of blogging, I’ve still got lists of post ideas that are just titles or topics. Plus half written drafts that I will get round to writing (or just decide it’s not right and delete them). Both for this blog and my dance blog. Even with 2020 meaning no days out after March, and a lack of holidays and breaks to talk about, I’ve still been able to find things to write about. Yes, some are a slight divert from my usual (food and crafty posts, plus more Wasgij solutions for those in lockdown), but that’s the joy of having a diverse niche.

If you enjoy writing, then topics will flow. If the topic doesn’t fit with your blog, then find somewhere to guest post.

Sometimes I do like to join in with challenges though, and prompts can be helpful to spark off ideas. Blogmas is upon us and if you’re looking to join in with daily prompts for the whole of December, or just in the run up to Christmas, you might be looking for some ideas.

I did have to do a bit of initial digging around to think of some different ideas to what I’ve previously written about. I had some great ideas but this year won’t work – Christmas market best purchase ideas, I’m looking at you! But even if you have one post idea that won’t work, sometimes they can be adapted to a different angle..

Dont forget the visuals too. I tend to write quite long posts, and usually want at least 1 pinnable image. This year I’ll try and blitz a few Christmas stock shots myself, look back at my old photos I could use. But also look up stock image sites. I tend to mix the ones I use up a bit, otherwise you can find other bloggers using the same ones. So try cropping shots differently, or using in collages to make them your own.

Anyway, here’s some ideas for Christmas blog posts, for this year and in future (hence why there’s some no lockdown ideas included).
