As we bid adieu to yet another year, it’s time to welcome 2023 with open arms. New horizons, new resolutions and a time to spend warm cosy nights with your loved ones. From cities decked up with twinkling lights to opulent wreaths and Christmas trees, to the smell of fragrant candles illuminating your home, it’s the ambience that gets us in the right spirit. Let a colour palette of red, white, green and sparkle set the tone for the holidays. A holiday home can mean a lot of things in terms of preparations: decorating and lighting a Christmas tree, adorning the home with wreaths, stockings and lights, and setting the table for a festive dinner. Even the tiniest of touches can make your home both more inviting to guests and a great wintertime sanctuary for you. But as you spruce up your holiday home, keep function in mind. Some glittery ornaments, string lights, a few wreaths here and there, and a Christmas tree in the house are enough to make it look like a winter wonderland. Ahead we’ve listed down some effective tips to spruce up your home this season. Tablescaping The starting point of most festive décor ought to be an opulent table layout. Whether you’re inviting guests over for a meal or simply wishing to get into the holiday spirit with your family, an impressive table setting can instantly elevate your home for the festive season. Think colourful table spreads, exquisite cutlery and crockery, tapered candles and holders to tick all the right boxes. Play with the traditional colours of red, white, green and gold, or mix and match prints when it comes to linen. From checks to stripes and solid colours, the options are plentiful. Opt for contrasting napkins and napkin holders and wreaths, along with candles and impressive candle holders to add finesse.When it comes to crockery, Villeroy and Boch will have you covered with their exquisite collection of dining wear. Tying the napkins with a velvet ribbon and adding a little bell or sprig of mistletoe is a wonderful final touch. And if you want to go the extra mile, printed menus with a festive theme will add further touches. Deck the halls with the holiday spirit!
