Christmas at home should feel magical. A beautifully dressed space sets the tone for the celebrations ahead, filling your home with warmth, colour, fragrance and joy. In this guide, I share styling ideas inspired by our Signature and Capsule Christmas Collections, along with simple tips to transform your rooms into something truly spectacular.

Every home has its own personality, and your festive décor should complement it. This year, we have curated four distinct Christmas collections, each offering a different mood and palette for you to express your style.

Our Signature Collection embraces the classic beauty of Christmas with red Amaryllis, Roses, Hydrangeas, Gerbera and Orchids, paired with fragrant spruce, pine and conifer. Gilded pinecones, textured foliage and tall taper candles create a joyful, traditional warmth that suits any home interior.

This opulent palette blends tones of plum, purple and gold, inspired by the whimsy of festive ballet and winter celebrations. Think glittering textures, plush jewel tones and floral designs that feel rich, velvety and dramatic. Perfect if you love deeper hues and luxurious detailing.

Inspired by the frosted beauty of a snowy forest, this collection is filled with soft whites, icy greens and sparkling accents. It creates a calm, serene Christmas atmosphere that feels fresh and ethereal without becoming overly cool or minimal.

For those who love nostalgia, this collection was created from my own childhood memories in Northern Ireland. Tartans, cinnamon sticks, dried oranges, holly berries and traditional scented greenery evoke the feeling of 'Christmas Eve' at home, full of comfort and heart.

The most beautiful Christmas styling comes from layering. Colour, texture, scent and light all work together to create an immersive festive atmosphere.

Start with a focal design. A Tall Arrangement with Amaryllis, Gladioli, Anthuriums or Ilex Berries makes an extraordinary statement in an entrance hall or on a console table.

Hand-Tied Bouquets and Festive Bud Vases are perfect for coffee tables, sideboards or guest rooms. Our Petite Couture Candle Arrangements are ideal for side tables and smaller dining spaces, while our Long & Low Candle Centrepiece brings height and elegance to any Christmas table.
A fresh garland on a banister, mantelpiece or console adds a beautiful depth of colour. Whether you lean towards traditional reds and greens or the jewel-like tones of 'Gilded Sugarplum', a garland instantly lifts a room.
Wreaths are essential at Christmas, not only for your front door but throughout your home. Style one above a fireplace, in a window, or even laid flat with candles through the centre.
Candlelight is the simplest way to transform your home. Our Fragranced Candles were created to become part of your Christmas story. Whether you choose the nostalgic spice of 'Christmas Eve' or the crisp notes of 'Winter Wonderland', fragrance brings a space to life. A cluster of candles on a tray or dressing table creates a beautiful glow, especially in the evenings.
Scent triggers memory more than any other sense. At Christmas, fragrance becomes part of the storytelling of your home.
Whether you prefer warm spices, woodland greenery or soft fruits and florals, layering scent through candles and arrangements helps spaces feel comforting and distinctive. Place a candle in the hallway to set the tone as guests arrive, and another on the dining table or coffee table for a gentle glow throughout the evening.

- Mist your fresh wreaths and garlands regularly to keep them hydrated.
- Keep all fresh displays away from direct heat sources.
- Top up water in vases every day during the warmer weeks of December.
- Mix fresh and decorative elements for longevity.
- Add height to your table with taper candles but ensure conversation remains easy across the table.
- Scatter small bud vases through your table setting for effortless elegance.
