The Halls

Make the right first impression this Christmas with these fab festive hallway ideas.

Tree

Wreath

A Christmas wreath on the front door is a simple way to bring a little festive magic into your home. Whether you opt for traditional holly, berries and pinecones, full on sparkle, pre-lit, or faux snow, there’s a style to suit every home. And do think outside the circle. After all Christmas is never complete without a festive star.

Nothing says Christmas more than the aroma of a real tree. If you have the space, make an impact with a spruce in your entrance hall. Dress to impress in a colourway to complement your décor theme. Then cover the base with attractively wrapped presents. Unlike the tree, they don’t have to be the real thing!

Style

Don’t be restricted to a single style. While having a unified motif helps the look to flow from room to room, mixing different materials is an easy and effective way to add a uniqueness to your space. The key to combining styles is integrating cohesive colours tones, textures, and layers. We love this foliage and felt combo.

Flourishes

When it comes to Christmas décor, more is definitely more. This is especially important if you are opting for natural materials over baubles and bling. A sprig of mistletoe is not exactly going to wow your guests. Festive flourishes on the ceiling, staircase and surfaces, plus a sprinkling of seasonal scents, should do the trick.

Ambiance

Simple decorations on a hallway table or bench can create the warmest of welcomes. For a wintry woodland feel, dress the space with wicker wreaths, forest foliage, and scented candles. Or add cosy cushions and textured throws for a nod to the Nordic. Whatever the styling, your hall will feel instantly festive. URBAN FOX DECEMBER 2020 25
