Creating a Festive Wonderland: 5 Interior Designer Tips for a Magical Christmas

29 Nov

The festive season is upon us, and there's no better time to infuse your home with the warmth and cheer of Christmas. As a Surrey-based Interior Designer with a passion for creating captivating spaces, I'm thrilled to share five delightful ways to transform your space into a festive wonderland.

1. Smarten Up Your Front Door

Start spreading the festive joy right at your doorstep! A classic wreath adorned with holly, pinecones, and a festive bow can instantly elevate your entryway, setting the tone for a merry welcome. You can even forage these pieces yourself for free.

2. Add Cosy Throws and Cushions

Indulge in the comfort of the season by draping a soft, faux-fur throw over your couch. Complement it with plump velvet cushions in rich tones to invite everyone to snuggle up and relish the festive spirit.

3. Make Your Home Cosy with Soft Lighting

Create a warm and inviting atmosphere with clever lighting choices. Whether it's draping fairy lights around your living room or adding dimmable lamps with warm-toned bulbs, the right lighting can evoke the perfect cosy ambience. And Candles, candles, candles!

4. Prepare for Guests

Ensure your guest room is a welcoming haven for visitors. Freshly laundered linens, a selection of sweet treats, and a thoughtful basket with essentials like towels and toiletries guarantee a comfortable stay for your guests.

5. Update Your Bedding

Explore the charm of festive duvet covers! Whether you're seeking bold and playful prints, traditional red and green checks, or Scandi-inspired designs, our interior design expertise can help you choose the perfect covers. Transform your bedroom into a festive sanctuary, radiating warmth and holiday cheer.
