2020 is a year like no other, so what better time to mix things up by changing your Christmas theme from traditional to something totally different?
I absolutely love decorating my flat at Christmas, and I put a lot of thought into making my tree look perfect.
To be honest, I actually think that my flat looks best when there’s a Christmas tree in the corner!
Usually I like to keep it simple and elegant, turning to my preferred colour scheme of white and silver, and I’m not afraid to add on a spritz of fake snow on to the branches, either.
But this year I’ve decided to try something different and will be seeing how I get on with a winter grey coloured tree and new subtle colourful style baubles from wilko.
After the year we’ve had, I think it’s a good idea to do whatever we can to make things as special as possible without breaking the bank.
When I saw the trendy grey hue of wilko’s twilight winter grey Christmas tree, I was impressed with how sophisticated it looked and decided it would be a stylish addition to my home this winter.
It is incredibly chic, and my existing baubles will look gorgeous hanging on it. I was also thrilled with the baubles that are shaped like wine glasses. This glamourous pink beaded hanging bauble is a great find too and really suits the colour tone of the Christmas tree.
To finish it off I’ve added these sparkly set of Christmas parcels that will look fabulous underneath the tree before the presents start to build up.
There will be fewer Christmas parties to go to this year, but these kitsch ornaments mean that the party is definitely still happening… on the tree!
Throughout December I’ll be making the most of small opportunities to celebrate, including putting up and decorating my tree!
I’ll enjoy getting dressed up, and will pour myself a nice drink, and turn up Heart Xmas to really get me in the mood.
