Another year has come and gone, Christmas and New Year are just weeks away, hopefully you already bought the presents, and decided what is that you are doing for these holidays. To help you set the mood and enter into the spirit of the holidays, I prepared a collection of awesome Microsoft Windows 7 theme packs, beautiful wallpapers from around the web, icon packs, and great fonts with Christmas themes.

For Windows 7 starters, I listed a couple of previous articles that cover the basic with Windows icons and how to create Windows 7 themes:

And also, here is how to change a desktop wallpaper in Windows 7:

Right-click on Windows Desktop and select Personalize.
Click Desktop Background, click Browse to locate the folder where the wallpaper images are and click OK .
All the image in the folder will be displayed, just choose one or as many as you wish.
Click the Save Changes button and close the Personalization window. Done!

Now, you may be asking yourself, how to install fonts into Windows ? It’s pretty easy, just follow the steps below:

First, download and unzip the font pack file.
Double-click the name-of-the-file.ttf, Windows may ask you how do you want to open the file, choose Windows Font Viewer and click OK.
Next, click Install and that is it. In the case you have Word, Photoshop or any other program running where you want to use the new set of fonts, you need to restart the program in order for the new fonts to be available.
