FAQs
What other Christmas home interior trends are there?
The time has come to transform your homes into Winter Wonderlands. But, what are the experts saying? How can you make your home feel truly Christmassy? We've asked for help from experts at retailer Fenwick UK to help our homes get in the spirit this festive season.
Tablescaping - comes first. After all, what is Christmas without the main event? The Christmas dinner is a get-together, festive, indulgent and irrevocable. Fenwick says: “Impress your friends and family by decorating your Christmas table as you would with your tree, creating a unique and sophisticated addition to the home.”
Novelty Decorations - doesn't have to be tacky. If you're not a fan of Elton John baubles or cheesy gonks lying around your fireplace, why not go for something sophisticated and a little more subtle? Fenwick adds: “From traditional woodland creatures to jewelled insects and felt animals, there is something for everyone.”
Go Monochrome - with your Christmas soft furnishings and decorations. Pick a colour and theme first. For this, Fenwick recommends going dark - with an opulent, stylish approach to Christmas, away from the gaudy reds and greens we tend to see. “Many people are opting for rich shades of purple, navy and gold on their trees this year .”
Cottage Cosy - feels like Christmas to a tee. Grabbing Christmas bedding wrapping up warm with some mulled wine and a Christmas movie is what the season is all about. Fenwick adds: "Creating a cosy look in your home for Christmas can be achieved easily by embracing different textures, adding warmth with lighting and experimenting with scents.”
