HELLO CHRISTMAS

Tis the season to buy some holly and sprinkle it around your house. This month’s home styling is all about adding that special Christmas touch, ready for the big man’s arrival. Here are a few ideas for you to try this December.

WREATH MAKING MONTH

The use of wreaths has been a long standing tradition and one that will inevitably be around for a long time. The beautiful thing about making your own wreath is being able to get creative with the colour and design to match you décor. Georgie’s Florist hold a wreath making workshop which is a fabulous activity to enjoy with friends or family.

Despite what your mother may tell you, advent calendars are not just for children. Getting creative with your Christmas countdown is a great way to make the whole month of December fun and exciting. This also doesn’t have to be expensive, a meaningful message a day could be a lovely gift for your partner, or a scratch card a day for a little bit of excitement each morning.

ADD A TOUCH OF HOLLY

The Druids regarded holly as a symbol of fertility and eternal life and it was also thought to have magical powers. What a perfect way to add a touch of magic to your household this Christmas. You can make a beautiful table runner of fresh holly leaves and berries, add them to a planter with small trees and candles, fill glass jars with water and put holly branches inside, and floating candles.

Rosebourne’s Winter Wonderland has plenty to offer when it comes to decor and we are here for it. Especially their range of Christmassy candles and wax melts. The image to the right is the ‘Snow Lily’ scented candle and is the perfect aroma for a winter night in.
