Step 5 – Adding a festive scent

CREATE THEMES PER ROOM

Start thinking and planning your Christmas by deciding which theme that you’re going to have in your house. It is important to choose a theme because this will help you save time in decorating the house. 

KEEP THE ORNAMENTS SIMPLE

Keep things simple and work with items you can pick up last-minute or what you may already have at home. Keep in mind that you are actually celebrating the holidays not the decoration. Great party theme ideas start with simplicity. 

GET YOUR DINING ROOM READY

Clear the clutter and also fix up your table and chair. Make sure you have the centrepiece ready. Check out websites like pinterest for more inspiration on the dining set up.   

LIGHTING MATTERS

The secret to a comfortable room is lighting and perfecting that balance between giving the room a certain ambience. 

ADDING A FESTIVE SCENT 

From sprays to scentsicles, add fabulous festive fragrances with special scents to your home. If you’re not the type for burning candles at all hours of the day and night then try a plug-in fragrance. Essential oils will also do well. Simply make the room smell amazing. 

Whichever theme you choose, whichever ornaments you pick. Happy decorating! May your holiday season be filled with joy, laughter, kindness, and love. Kaliuda Gallery wishes you a Merry Christmas.
