Home is where the heart is and every room deserves a treat at this time of year. Sam Wylie-Harris rounds up a wish list of items to wrap up for others – or just give to yourself.
WHETHER your festive tastes stretch to the refined or the racy, when it comes to sprucing up your home – or choosing Christmas gifts – the stores are teeming with ideas.
Fans of The Killing can mimic a festive Scandinavian style by littering homes with jolly fabrics and folksy, home-made ornaments. Or if you’re one to keep up with the neighbours, order some decadent touches in the form of high-end candles and smellies.
Fans of William and Kate might even want to head down the heritage route, and purchase countryside-inspired gems such as tartan-checked accessories and retro lighting.
But whatever you fancy, don’t wait for Santa. Hit the shops for those last-minute Christmas gifts instead.
