‘It’s the most wonderful tiiimmmeee of the year!’

It’s December, we’re less than a month away from Christmas, and the festive spirit has hit me full on in the face! Now I’d like to think you guys are super organised and already have your decorations up, but just in case you’re after a few more ideas and/or are scrambling to find some bits and pieces to put up. When it comes to Christmas decor inspiration I’m filling my wish list with items from two ends of the festive spectrum.

On one hand is the super sleek, scandi-inspired minimal Christmas look, which is much more about clean lines than overloading your home with trinkets. Think delicate lights, barely there Winter trees, ornaments with natural wood finishes, and a colour palette of greys, whites, metallics and rose golds.

It’s a great theme to stick to if you’re looking for money saving options as it places focus on styling than the ornaments themselves.

As great as the minimal them is, there’s something about sticking with a truly traditional format that just reminds me of home. With this theme you’ll want to take a the opposite approach to the minimalist style and go for luxurious details in warm and cosy reds and golds. This theme would, of course, be nothing without beautiful evergreen wreaths and trees dripping with baubles, bows and winter berries.

Which theme will you be sticking with this year?

Have you sorted your decor for the Holiday season yet?

    I went for a Scandi theme this year to match the decor of my new abode! Lovely snaps though – I think I might just have to go shopping for more trinkets after work to immerse myself in the festivities! Having such a tough time getting accustomed to a non-England Christmas ): xx

    I love your picks! We usually have quite an overcrowded tree, so I think for next year something minimal like this would make a nice change. I think incorporating a bit of rose gold into there would look lovely too! :)
