Neill’s Top Tips for Christmas and Holiday Decoration at Home
Transform your home into a festive haven this season with Neill’s expert Christmas decoration tips! At Neill Strain Floral Couture, we believe that luxury Christmas home decor should capture the magic and warmth of the holidays. From the fresh scent of spruce to the soft glow of fairy lights, let us help you create a cosy Christmas atmosphere that makes every moment of the season unforgettable.
1. Incorporate Scented Foliages for a Fresh Christmas Feel
One of the best ways to elevate your holiday home decor is by using fresh, scented foliages like spruce, pine, and eucalyptus. These winter greens not only look stunning in Christmas garlands and wreaths but also fill your home with the natural, festive fragrance of the season. Place them in vases or create lush garlands for your mantel or dining table, and you’ll have a beautiful, fragrant foundation for your Christmas decorations.
2. Add Colour with Red Berries, Poinsettia, Cyclamen, and Amaryllis Plants
No luxury Christmas decor is complete without a touch of festive red! Red berries, such as holly, add the perfect pop of colour to your holiday floral arrangements and garlands. Red Poinsettia, Cyclamen and Amaryllis plants are also a gorgeous, long-lasting addition to your holiday decor. Their bold, vibrant blooms bring a sense of elegance and seasonal charm to any room. Display them in our beautiful glassware or ceramic pots to add a sophisticated touch to your living space. These classic holiday accents will ensure your home feels joyful and welcoming.
3. Showcase Colourful Baubles for a Touch of Magic
For a simple yet striking way to infuse Christmas magic into your home, try showcasing colourful baubles in abundance. Fill glass bowls, jars, or elegant containers with a mix of shiny and matte baubles in your chosen colour palette. This easy display adds instant sparkle and creates a beautiful focal point on coffee tables, sideboards, or even the dining table. It’s a versatile way to bring the holiday spirit into any room and can be easily customised to suit your decor style.
4. Create a Cosy Atmosphere with Candlelight and Scented Candles
Candles are key to creating a cosy Christmas atmosphere in your home. Our “Christmas Eve” scented candle, inspired by nostalgic childhood Christmases, is perfect for adding that warm, festive scent throughout your space. Place candles on your mantelpiece, dining table, or coffee table to create a soft, flickering glow that enhances the holiday spirit. For an extra touch of luxury, combine scented candles with fairy lights draped over windows and doorways to create a magical ambience that makes your home feel like a winter wonderland.
5. Keep Your Fresh Christmas Tree Looking Its Best
If you’re decorating with a fresh Christmas tree, proper care is essential to keep it looking vibrant right through the season. Be sure to water your tree regularly to maintain its freshness and prevent it from drying out. A well-watered tree will retain its needles longer, keeping it lush and beautiful. Avoid placing your tree near radiators or in areas with underfloor heating, as this can cause the tree to dry out more quickly. A little attention to these details ensures that your tree stays as stunning as the day you brought it home.
6. Make a Statement with a Bespoke Christmas Door Wreath
A beautifully crafted wreath on your front door is a wonderful way to welcome the season. It not only serves as a festive statement piece but also provides an opportunity to express your unique style. At Neill Strain Floral Couture, we specialise in bespoke, custom-made wreaths that reflect your personality and elevate your home's entrance. A wreath made with lush foliages, berries, and festive decorations adds a warm welcome to guests and spreads cheer to every passer-by. It’s the perfect way to set the tone for the holidays from the moment someone arrives at your door.
7. Set the Scene for Festive Dining
A beautifully decorated dining table is essential for Christmas and holiday gatherings. Elevate your Christmas table decor with a garland made from fresh pine and eucalyptus, draped down the centre of the table. Add red berries, pinecones, and tall taper candles for a luxurious, festive look. Our Christmas Home Decor page offers inspiration for designing a holiday tablescape that will impress your guests and create the perfect setting for Christmas dinner.
8. Enhance the Holiday Mood with Music and Lights
Create a complete holiday experience with the right music and lighting. A carefully selected holiday playlist sets the tone for a festive gathering, while the twinkling of fairy lights adds a cosy Christmas glow to every corner of your home. Wrap fairy lights around your Christmas tree, stair banister, and mantel to bring that enchanting sparkle into your living space. This combination of music and lights will ensure your home is filled with holiday cheer.
