Add some festive vibes to your fireplace... read more
Christmas and a fireplace go hand in hand for us really as it’s fun decorating the fireplace for the festive period but even more enjoyable lighting a fire and getting cosy. To help you feel inspired and cosy this winter, here are some top tips for styling your fireplace this Christmas…
Christmas means different things for different people, but for most of us, it conjures up thoughts of snow, hot chocolate and families sitting around the table eating their Christmas meal. Then settling down to a cosy night on the sofa, in front of the fire, with a good Christmas movie.
To create the ambience of Christmas in the home, it doesn’t have to be all 80s styled tinsel (unless that’s your thing of course) and it certainly isn’t about plonking the Christmas tree in the corner of the room and be done with. Tastefully styling your home this Christmas can be done with ease, thanks to Laura Ashley, who make it more than achievable to create the magic and enjoy the festive season.
These Laura Ashley products make it easy to style your fireplace with a bit of festive flair.
Good quality faux flowers are the perfect solution for anyone who usually loves to have flowers around the home. They are ideal because they add colour and dimension to the room and will stay looking gorgeous for the whole season, plus they can be used again and again.
The Lit Winter Garland has LED lights which twinkle among the bright white sparkled berries, silver painted pinecones and sparkled leaves, which really makes the room feel rather magical. They also look so realistic and need to take centre stage.
Extra Large Silver Cylinder Hurricane Lamp
Church candles always look stunning around Christmas, the bigger the better too and this stylish candle holder is ideal and really sets off any fireplace place adding to the ambience and looks rather regal. Large LED Candle
It’s ideal to have a mix of burning and LED candles, especially if you have children or are prone to knocking things over (especially if you have guests) This large sparkly LED candle gives off the feel of a flickering candle and a warm glow. I love the gold and clear sparkles the candle is encased in.
Fireplace One:
A disconnected fireplace can seem a little like a waste of space. It does add character to the room but can lack purpose. Here’s how I have styled this fireplace to make it more of a feature. It looks very Nordic, clean and simple yet still manages to create the cosiness of Christmas without a roaring fire. This Large Dartmoor Faux Fur Throw is cosy enough to stay warm and watch classic Christmas films.
Fireplace Two:
There really is nothing quite like cosying up by a roaring fire especially over Christmas. This wood burning stove fireplace is the perfect way to really ignite the Christmas spirit and with the additional accessories to really turn things up you are sure to be feeling festive this Christmas. A wonderful space to have an afternoon snooze after the family Christmas lunch.
No matter what style your fireplace, creating a stylish and magical feature for your room is achievable with these pieces and many more stunning items from Laura Ashley.
