Approach your holiday decorating with a specific design strategy – just like you would when decorating your home. You can do this by choosing a theme:
· Monochromatic (any colour you love – hot pink, black, grey, red etc.)
· Rustic (faux furs and plaids)
· Coastal (use an unexpected colour like ice blues)
· Woodlands (bring the forest indoors)
· Hollywood Glam (gold and sparkles)
Here are 5 chic, easy decorating tips and tricks - click on the images below to see more.
STOCK THE BAR

ADD GREENERY
You don’t need a traditional Christmas tree – instead, add some pine sprigs or a wreath.

FAUX FUR

DISPLAY YOUR PRESENTS
You’ve already wrapped them why not display them! Choose an unexpected spot to show off your handiwork.
