how to make your home cosy for Christmas.

There’s no better feeling than being warm and toasty in your home as you listen to the rain or snow fall outside your window. So, whether your fingertips are frozen from building snowmen, your toes are numb from the commute home, or your nose is red and chilled from carol singing, here are some tricks and tips to make your home feel cosy this Christmas. 

Create the mood – Low lighting will create a cosy mood and calm ambience throughout your home. A floor lamp or table lamp is not too bright and will make you feel relaxed whilst adding some extra style to your home. 

Sugar, spice and all things nice – Spray some room spray or light a candle. The flickering of the flames is bound to transform your home into a tranquil space. Not only this but your home will smell absolutely divine!

Snuggle down - Wrap yourself up in a snuggly fleece throw. The teddy fleece material on these blankets is irritability soft and they don’t compromise on warmth. Now all you need is a delicious hot chocolate and to pop on your favourite Christmas film. Ahhh bliss!

how to decorate your bedroom for Christmas. 

Who says every room in your home can’t be decorated top to bottom with festive decor! Celebrate the Christmas season in your bedroom by…

Adding a twinkle with some dainty fairy lights. These can be wrapped around your bed or furniture for a cosy glow in your room. You can also add some lanterns for some extra light and ambience. 

Switch up your bedding. Nothing screams festive like a novelty Christmas duvet cover set. We’re talking whimsical nutcrackers, woodland scenes covered in snow and textural Christmas patterns. Our Christmas bedding is the perfect seasonal touch for your bedroom this winter. 

Bring the décor upstairs. Hang your decorations, baubles and garlands across your bedroom. Why not get creative and make your own? Ceiling, headboard or across your windows, the possibilities are endless! 

Add a little tree. If you have extra space, why not add a miniature Christmas tree to your room? There won’t be any bickering with family members on your bauble and tinsel colour scheme as this tree can be decorated to your own unique style!

Add some jolly accessories to complete the room. Our Christmas cushions are the perfect finishing touch to your bed and coordinate with many of our Christmas duvet cover sets.

when to put up your Christmas tree.

In the UK, we face the same annual debate each Christmas - when is the right time to put up your Christmas tree? It is argued that November is too early but is December too late?

Did you know tradition states Christmas trees should be put up in your home at the beginning of Advent? No, we’re not talking about the daily chocolate behind little cardboard doors; Advent is a very important part of the Christian Calendar. It translates as ‘coming’ and is the period before Christmas which celebrates the birth of Jesus. Advent begins on the fourth Sunday before Christmas – the perfect time to put up your tree and decorate your home.
