The holidays are fast approaching which means it is time to begin decorating (if you haven’t already). Here are some of our top tips for creating a cozy and festive feel in your home:
1. Pick a theme
First things first – pick a theme. Whether it is reds and greens, or a white winter wonderland, choosing one theme will help to unify your space. Can’t decide on just one theme? Create a separate theme for each room in your home! Oh – and don’t be afraid to play around with silver and gold.
2. Switch up throw pillows and blankets
The easiest way to add a festive touch to your living space is by changing up your pillows and blankets. Holiday themed pillows and throws will give your space the perfect cozy holiday touch.
3. Bring nature indoors
Apart from bringing a real Christmas tree into your home, there are plenty of ways to decorate with nature. Take a walk outside and collect some pinecones and branches to deck out your mantel or create a centerpiece for your dinner table. Greenery draped around the house creates an inviting atmosphere and brings the outside in. Not a fan of the outdoors? Check out some of our favourite candles from Saje.
4. Dress up your dinner table
The holidays are a time to celebrate with friends and family, and what better way to impress your guests than by sprucing up your dining table! Adding a festive table runner, candles, a garland, and that treasured holiday china that has been tucked away all year is the perfect way to liven up your holiday feast.
5. Make it personal
It’s amazing what a little bit of glue and glitter can do. Making your own holiday décor is the best way to add a personal touch to your space. It is also a great way to involve the whole family. Create personalized name tags for your dinner table or ornaments for your tree to make your space unique. Head to Pinterest for more great ideas!
