Goodbye red & green
We get it – traditional red and green has been holding down the Christmas décor scene forever, but why not mix things up this year? Think soft whites, shimmery metallics, and rich jewel tones to give your home a sophisticated, elegant vibe that still screams festive. It’s all about creating a space that sparkles without overwhelming. Head to Adairs for minimalist ornaments, like glass baubles in delicate designs and little touches of pine, perfect for adding an air of understated glamour. These choices are sure to upgrade your space without it looking like Santa’s workshop exploded in your living room.
Cosy vibes only
Now, Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without adding some seriously cosy vibes. This is your cue to pull out the luxe fabrics. Velvet throw pillows? Check. Faux fur blankets? Double check. These soft textures invite you to snuggle up, and watch Christmas classics with the air conditioning blasting. And let’s not forget about lighting – drape warm white fairy lights for a glowing effect that instantly says “festive” without being too much.
Keep it simple
Let your style shine by creating focal points that glimmer without blinding anyone. A beautifully set dining table, for example, can become the heart of your holiday gatherings. Think simple yet elegant centrepieces from Domayne. Not only will your table look ready for a magazine cover, but it’ll also set the perfect tone for all those family feasts and friendly get-togethers. And while we’re talking festive, don’t forget about adding a little holiday scent to the mix from Freedom. Cinnamon, pine, or vanilla-scented candles can make your home smell as good as it looks.
