CHRISTMAS

ready Get your home refreshed, decorated and ready to receive guests and visitors over the festive season with our tips.

IMAGE: PROVINCIAL HOME LIVING

GET SET FOR GUESTS If you have guests staying over Christmas, ensure they feel welcomed by cleaning and decorating your guest rooms. Check all guest bedlinen including the mattress protector and pillows. Give it all a good wash and iron, or replace if necessary. Clear out some draw or cupboard space and set up a cabinet in the room to hold fresh towels and face cloths, pretty soaps, candles and tissues. You may want to place some books and magazines, a spare phone charger and a vase of flowers on the bedside table. Also check the lightbulb in the reading light and replace if necessary. It’s these personal touches that go a long way to ensuring your guests feel comfortable.

BUY BIG TICKET ITEMS It may seem like overkill, but if you were planning to update some of your furniture anyway, why not do it now and have your home looking even more beautiful? If you’re planning an outdoor Christmas lunch, you may want to buy a new outdoor setting. If you have lots of guests staying this year, you may want to think about investing in a sofa bed – it will never go astray.

CLEAN HIGH-TRAFFIC AREAS Don’t worry about doing a deep clean of your home before Christmas – unless you have plenty of time. Wait until after the festive season is over for that. For now, just clean the high-traffic areas. Wipe down your kitchen cupboards and benchtops, clean the fridge and pantry out ready to fill with Christmas goodies, sweep, mop and vacuum floors in the living room, kitchen and dining areas and make sure bathrooms and toilets are clean. If you have a lot of clutter in the kitchen, now is the time to declutter to ensure you have an efficient space for all that Christmas cooking and food prep.

Why Replace it... Just Re Bench it!

PLAN YOUR CHRISTMAS COLOUR THEME Whether you go with the classic red and gold or something more adventurous this year, it’s worth considering what your Christmas colour theme will be now. This year, metallics are on trend, as are whites and earthy neutrals. Consider your tablecloth, Christmas table decorations, crockery and general decorations. In terms of style, you can go traditional, rustic, boho, modern or get creative and do something no one has seen before. The main thing is, have fun and don’t stress! continued over>

UPDATE YOUR CROCKERY & GLASSWARE Now is the time to inspect your crockery, glassware and cutlery and see what needs updating. If you have chipped plates or glasses, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reasonably inexpensive to invest in a new set for Christmas. Nothing looks better than beautiful, high-quality glasses on a Christmas table, so shop around and stock up on wine glasses, champagne flutes and tumblers before the big day.

TIME TO DECORATE You can go all Griswald and cover your home in Christmas lights, or take a more subtle approach by simply hanging a beautiful wreath on your front door and decorating your tree. There are some beautiful wreaths available in stores on the Sunshine Coast and hanging a fresh one on your door is the quickest way to get into the festive spirit.

Nothing is more embarrassing than receiving a gift and not having one to reciprocate with, so don’t get caught out.

Branch out – Find a large, nicely shaped branch, hang them all over the tree. place it into a pot and hang your decorations off 2. Deconstructed tree – Hang pieces of driftwood from short to long in the shape of a Christmas tree on a bare wall, then dangle ornaments off each piece of wood and finish with a star at the top and fairy lights draped around it.

5. Book stack – Here’s one for the book lovers. Stack your books into the shape of a Christmas tree, either against a wall or freestanding, then drape some fairy lights or tinsel over them.

TIPS // 5 minutes: Clear clutter Grab a large basket and dash around the house picking up miscellaneous items on the floor, benchtops, dining table and wherever else they are creating mess and clutter, then hide the basket in the garage, laundry or anywhere your guests won’t be looking.

10 minutes: Dust Move through each room guests will be going in, cleaning with a duster and wiping dust off surfaces, photo frames, bookshelves and ornaments.

work its magic while you clear clutter and throw dirty towels and wash cloths in the laundry basket. Wipe everything down with a microfibre cloth. Scrub inside the toilet bowl with a toilet brush and wipe down the seat and outside of the toilet bowl with a paper towel.

20 minutes: Kitchen & dining room Pour half a cup of water into a bowl, squeeze the juice of a lemon into the water and drop both lemon halves in.

Heat for three minutes in the microwave then let it sit for a few more minutes. While the lemon is working its magic, pack all dishes into the dishwasher, wipe down the stovetop, counters and fridge. Scoop out any food from the sink and wipe it down. Wipe it clean with a cloth then finish by wiping out the microwave. The acidity of the lemon will make it super-easy.

25 minutes: Entrance Shake out the front door mat, tidy the foyer and make sure shoes, hats, umbrellas etc are packed away.

30 minutes: Floors Run the vacuum quickly over all carpets and floors that guests are likely to be using. Pack the vacuum away and voila!

VERSATILE CANDLES

Break out of your Christmas table rut and try something new this year. There’s nothing wrong with classic green and red, but today there are so many more colour palettes to work with, so why not get creative and decorate your table differently for a change?

NON-TRADITIONAL COLOUR SCHEMES Metallics, natural, botanical, rose gold or berry tones can all look just as beautiful and striking as green and red. You don’t have to buy everything in that colour scheme – you can use your existing dining ware and glassware and just buy a few pieces in that palette, such as placemats, runners, serving trays, candle holders and napkins.

The soft flicker of beautiful candles on your table brings warmth and festivity to your Christmas table.

You can buy candles that match your colour scheme, scatter tealights in pretty holders or just go for classic white stick candles in beautiful candle holders.

The Molly candle holder from Pillow Talk has a beautiful scalloped design and will work with any theme from classic to minimalist, rustic, metallic or natural.

earthy inspo

Natural colours and textures are a big trend for Christmas tables this year. As more people become aware of protecting our planet, many are choosing to avoid OTT decorating and choosing understated looks like this. It doesn’t mean it has to be boring or lack flair – you can easily make an earthy Christmas table look festive with some greenery, classy dinnerware and glassware and beautiful cutlery. As the focus is not so much on the decorations, these items need to be high quality.

EXPERT ADVICE //

HAPPY HOLIDAYS design dream With Cassandra Fenaughty Cassandra Fenaughty is a landscape architect with more than 20 years’ experience. She’s the founder and owner of an innovative new renovation design consultancy, creating photo-real renovation concepts for clients looking to visualise their dream renovation before it begins. For more visit cassandrafenaughty.com.

It’s that time of year again! With holidays approaching, many of us are thinking of doing odd jobs and renovations around the home while we have some time off work.

Whether it be tidying up the garden, building a new deck, painting a fence or installing a new kitchen, it’s a great feeling to accomplish something substantial over the Christmas break.

This month we thought it would be great to share a local family’s renovation dream.

Beth and her husband purchased their home only a couple of months ago, and when they bought it they knew it had a lot of potential.

Coming from a small residential block, their ‘tree change’ has now been realised.

The existing home may look average in the before photos but it’s actually a perfect base for a modern farmhouse renovation.

Don’t let the colour of the brick or the pitch of the roof fool you – as you can see in the photo-real image, a simple colour change on the roof and external walls, with a small pergola extension, easily

transform this house into an acreage dream.

Beth commissioned me to help her with the exterior landscape design. One of the biggest tasks for Beth is to get on top of the existing trees – many of them are dangerous or weed species and need to be removed prior to

work starting. Once this initial tidy-up is completed, the real work can begin.

Beth has always had modern and restrained gardens designed in previous homes, and the brief for this project was to provide a “real garden” with scented flowering

With the latest designs in carpet, timber, laminate, luxury vinyl, tiles, rugs, plus window furnishings, we have the perfect decorating solution for every home and lifestyle.

Photo-real frontage plants and lots of colour so they can also be picked for floral arrangements. This style of garden is perfect for this home.

Stage one of the design is the frontage design, which is split into two views – the street view and the internal view.

The street view is a simple, yet sophisticated farm-style post-and-rail fence with a hedge of the hardy syzygium resilience – a great lilly pilly suitable for a range of soil types, and it is also resistant to pest attacks.

This simple design provides privacy and a soft

interface between the street and front yard.

The internal planting design is where the magic happens. An assortment of colourful and scented shrub and groundcover species will provide interest all year round, while the retention of select shade trees and inclusion of new turf provide a useable space for outdoor relaxation and a beautiful outlook from the home’s bay windows.

Beth and her family definitely have their work cut out for them this summer – hopefully this inspires our readers to roll up their sleeves and tick some boxes this holiday too!

If painting your interiors with this bold colour feels a bit OTT, you can introduce the trend into your home with key pieces, like the Newport 1.5-seater armchair sofabed from Domayne. Perfect for accommodating visitors, it’s a versatile piece that transforms into a bed for one, without taking up too much space.

PAINTING A GUEST BEDROOM Choose the right colour to paint your guest bedroom to ensure they feel comfortable and relaxed.

It’s difficult to decide on colours for your guest bedroom because you can’t cater to everyone’s taste. You want it to feel warm and welcoming, but also stylish and well-considered, not just randomly thrown together.

It’s best to aim for shades that are universal and soothing. Don’t go for anything that will alienate your guests but choose something fairly neutral that will make a great background for decorating around.

tip

GUMLEAF GREEN

Opt for a warm white and paint a feature wall in a neutral, relaxing shade to add interest, like Gumleaf Green from Haymes Paint.

OUTDOOR //

outdoor CHRISTMAS Make the most of our fantastic climate and host an outdoor Christmas this year.

HOLD THE GLASS You don’t want your best glassware getting broken if your Christmas guests get a bit rowdy. Why not keep the expensive stuff packed away and invest in some beautiful acrylic tableware?

The Fiji bowl and wine glasses from Domayne come in pretty blue and lilac finishes and are durable and lightweight.

DECIDE ON YOUR TABLE THEME Outdoor Christmas settings can afford to be more casual than a formal indoor Christmas. Lighten up and decorate the table with calming blues or a botanical theme to suit your garden. A rustic vibe works well outside too, with strips of hessian as table runners and greenery from the garden as decoration.

we love!

LIGHTING It takes a bit of effort, but nothing looks more magical in an outdoor party at night than lights strung around a beautiful tree. There are a multitude of fairy lights and other solar-powdered lights and lanterns you can easily put up and it’s worth the effort as it will make all the difference.

DRINK STATION Save yourself the trouble of getting up every time someone needs a drink, and set up a drinks station. Stock it with cold non-alcoholic beverages, glasses or non-breakable cups for the kids, and keep buckets of ice nearby.

CONSIDER THE ELEMENTS If you have a nice patio or pergola, you’ll no doubt be setting up your Christmas table and seating areas there, in the shade. If not, you’ll definitely need to invest in a decent shade umbrella or two. We love the gorgeous red of the Savannah cantilever umbrella from Daydream Leisure Furniture.

tip ip It’s a nice idea to stagger seating throughout your g garden, arden, to create quiet areas to socialise away from the main Christmas table. The Panama bench range from Out on the Patio is made from plantation teak and looks perfect under a big shady tree.

FOR STYLE and Security Choose Colorbond® Fencing

SEATING Of course, you’ll need an outdoor setting that will fit all your loved ones in comfort. The Bon 13-piece outdoor white extension dining setting from Harvey Norman is perfect for accommodating a large family at Christmas time.

We love these handy fold-away beach chairs, which are light and easy to carry. The Byron beach chair comes in a variety of bright colours from Pillow Talk.

beach DAYS Things have come a long way since the only bit of paraphernalia we took to the beach was a beach umbrella. Nowadays, there are a multitude of shade shelters, easy-to-carry beach chairs and even n wagons, so you don’t have to lug everything across the sand. Invest est in some functional new beach accessories this summer and you’llll spend your beach days with sun safety and comfort in mind.

Sometimes you just want a quick visit to the beach without having to pack and carry lots of stuff. It’s still a good idea to at least take a beach umbrella for shade. This Home Republic Native Floral Greens beach umbrella from Adairs comes in a handy carry bag and fits the bill perfectly.

Keep your kids’ beach toys organised with this summer beach bag from B. Toys. The 11-piece set comes in a transparent bag so you can easily see what toys you have, from David Jones.

It’s not easy to find the right shade shelter. The Bahamas Cabana from Pillow Talk comes in a pretty palm print, offers plenty of UV prot protection and contains onside p pockets for your valu valuables.

The Home Republic Tropicana Palms beach trolley has a tilting handle and heavy-duty wheels to make it easy to pull along the sand. It folds up easily for convenient packing, from Adairs.

RUG UP! A quick way to make your outdoor area at home feel fresh and festive, especially if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the budget for new outdoor furniture, is with a beautiful rug. An outdoor rug can serve a few purposes. It can cover a deck that has seen better days, integrate a large outdoor area so it feels comfy and welcoming, and provide a place for guests or children to lie back with a cushion and relax. You can either buy a rug specifically made for the outdoors, or just move an indoor rug outside for Christmas Day.

THE LIGHT

fantastic 1. CONTEMPORARY We love the metallic bronze-pewter detailing on the base and the classy raw linen rectangular hardback shade. The Oriel Lighting Tyros lamp is from Andrews Light Up.

4. BOHO The Palmilla table lamp by Amalfi is an unusual piece that won’t go unnoticed. It’s from Pillow Talk.

Lighting can make or break the ambience of a room. Everyone knows you don’t turn the ‘big’ light on unless you’re looking for the remote, removing a splinter, catching a spider or giving your guests the hint that it’s time to leave. Nice lamps are essential, especially when entertaining. Create a relaxing environment in your home with our top picks.

3. SCANDI The Hans table lamp from Domayne captures the cools simplicity of the Scandi style. Available in natural and grey, it will fit effortlessly into any space.

2. CLASSIC This lamp will never date and will work with a range of interiors, particularly Hamptons styling. Made from porcelain with a beautiful crystalline crackled glaze in duck egg blue, the Seville table lamp is a timeless piece from Provincial Home living.

we love!

5. ABSTRACT The Pipe table lamp features an industrial design with an open copper coloured shade and a faceted build for a touch of glamour. From Domayne.

This stunning table lamp from Rob Larson’s Curtains & Interior Decor. The neutral colours are balanced by the beautiful paisley design and it’s a piece that gives a bit of flair to a classic design.

This ‘motherand-child’ floor lamp has an industrial flavour with its black cotton drum shade and matte black tubing and base. The Stylux Carmen lamp is from Andrews Light Up.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT FLOOR LAMP Floor lamps can really tie a room together and offer both style and function. Decide whether your lamp is purely for ambient lighting and decorative purposes, or whether it’s a task lamp, for example, a lamp that lights up a reading nook.

Perfect for minimalist or Scandi decor, the Denver floor lamp features an elongated post with a warm, natural veneer. It’s from Domayne.

tip The Bronte 1 floor lamp in natural from Beacon Lighting would suit boho, beach, ethnic or modern Mediterranean styling.

A floor lamp can be subtle and blend into the background, or it can really make a statement. To find the right lamp to match your needs, talk to the experts at Andrews Light Up.
