As the Christmas season comes into its own, we buckle down on all the ways we can add a little festive magic throughout the Yuletide...
You ever think back to ‘good old days’ where zany, multicoloured Christmas lights, festive street lamps and decorated houses brought you so much joy? Christmas brings nostalgia and warmth in many forms and lighting plays one of the most important roles, but it’s how we use that light that really matters. From statement candles to decorative light fittings, we’ve come up with plenty of ideas of how to inject a little cosiness into your living spaces.
Invest in some timeless floor and table lamps for a spot of seasonal warmth, not just at Christmas time but the whole year round. Imagine huddling up with a book or watching the television around the lovely glimmer of your floor lamp.
Twinkly Christmas tree lights on, garlands up, and a sprinkle of light equals pure magic!
We often speak of light fixtures and miss out the most underrated light source of all…candles! Since the beginning of time candles were used to light dark spaces and add heat to homes, but fortunately nowadays we’re able to use them for beauty & style, rather than out of necessity.
A few well-placed tea lights or beautiful candlesticks on your living room mantlepieces, shelves and dining tables and you have an instant Christmas upgrade!
Unless you’re ‘dreaming of a white Christmas’ we vote golden tones and snug lighting for the win! The cosy quality of a warm bulb lifts the mood instantly and delivers on that cocooning type ambience we seek in those hibernation months. Take a look at our luxurious LED bulbs for inspiration.
We know some of you shy away from the switching the big light on through the cosier months, but if you get the big light just right, you’ll be glowing all the way into the festive season. Invest in a stunning pendant cluster, so you have a wow-factor chandelier to entertain and delight your guests whilst adding an extra layer of Christmas glamour.
For those who love to defer to a lighter glow, bring home some beautiful ornate wall lights for your home interior or utilise the ones you have already. They bring so much character and charm to spaces – transforming living rooms and hallways into relaxing, cosy sanctuaries for family and friends. The perfect solution to those cold, uninviting evenings.
Without greenery and beautiful garlands the holiday season would look pretty bare, we say the more the merrier. Elevate your living areas with joyful materials to lift the mood, because nothing says Christmas like gorgeous greens and twinkly golden lights.
