Have Yourself A Cosy Christmas At Home

Living room at Christmas

With brisk winter weather arriving, we all begin counting down the days until Christmas and look forward to spending our evenings at home.

In order to make sure we are all in the festive spirit, we decorate our homes to let the anticipation of the big day grow. Whether listening to cheerful Christmas music, or seasonal treats we all have our own ways to begin the celebration.

No matter your traditions, everyone starts out by cosying up on the sofa in the comfiest of clothes and enjoying the build up to the big day.

Give your fireplace a little extra cheer

Even though the Christmas tree is always the centre of attention, creating another focal point based around your fireplace can make a very cosy ambiance.

Wreaths are no longer limited to front doors at Christmastime, a very on-trend way to decorate is to hang a wreath on the wall above a fireplace.

In addition to your festive baubles or winter greenery you place on your mantel, spelling out a message of Christmas cheer in neon lighting can add a flare of extra spirit.

Reuse wine bottles and jars by putting fairy lights in them

If you enjoy hosting family and friends in the leadup to Christmas, then be sure to hold onto empty wine bottles and food jars.

Once you have given the bottles and jars a thorough cleaning, you can remove the labels and carefully drill a hole in the bottom of the bottle. Be sure that the hole is large enough so you can fit some red or white battery-powered LED lights inside for some festive lighting.

If DIY is not for you, then you can purchase some that have the hard work already done for you and display them on the dining table or window sills for festive cheer.

Display photos of your favourite Christmas times

The Christmas season is a special time to make memories with family and loved ones.

Displaying treasured memories through family photographs integrated into snow globes, personalised baubles or in hanging wall art is a great way to give your home a personal, holiday cheer.

Decorations such as these are sure to bring a smile to those enjoying your home at Christmas.
