Inspiring Your Christmas Interior Style
As an interior designer, I’ve always approached Christmas decorating with the same creative process I use for designing rooms: thoughtful, cohesive, and with a touch of flair. The result? A stunning festive scheme that feels personal, stylish, and full of family warmth.
This year, let’s explore how you can craft a Christmas look that’s uniquely yours, blending trends with timeless traditions to create something magical.
Christmas Trends for 2024
This season, the spotlight is on nature-inspired tones: shades of green like sage, holly, and forest, paired with lavender inky blues, deep burgundies, and playful pinks. These palettes offer endless opportunities to mix and match, creating a fresh yet familiar look.
But remember, you don’t need to overhaul everything each year. Instead, add thoughtful touches like a new decoration or a handmade piece that builds on your existing collection.
My Scandinavian roots influence my décor: I love experimenting, layering classic tones with sparkly finishes, soft textures, and even unexpected colours like pinks and lilacs. It’s all about finding harmony in the mix!

Christmas is all about preparation and planning, ensuring your festive season is smooth, stress-free, and filled with joy. Whether decorating your first home or adding to a cherished tradition, thoughtful preparation sets the stage for a magical holiday.
Check out my Top Christmas Decorating Tips for 2024 for ideas to elevate your décor this year.
Play with Height- Mix tall candles, stacked books, or elevated ornaments to add depth and create a striking display.
Create Little Stories - Design themed corners, like a winter animal scene on your mantel or a cosy table centrepiece with foliage and candles.
Blend Old and New - Mix handmade treasures with modern finds to keep things personal and charming.
Use Plenty of Lights - Twinkly lights are a must. Drape them through your tree, plants, and even along walls for a magical glow.
Bring in Texture - Add woollen decorations, pinecones, or natural wood accents for warmth and character.
Store with Care - After Christmas, pack delicate pieces in sturdy, clip-lid boxes to keep them safe for next year!
Enjoy creating something beautiful together with family and friends!
