If you’re going to settle in for a Christmas movie night, you’ve got to do it right. Some popcorn and festive treats go without saying. But the Hara Sofa Chaise, with its rich top-grain leather, is a classic that everyone will be comfortable with.

As for the movie choice, that may be a different Christmas story.

BLANKET CANVAS Winter may get chilly, but if you follow these helpful tips your bedroom will be one seriously hot topic. Start by layering up with a colourful faux fur blanket, or maybe two. It’ll make bedtimes beautiful and provide you with a backup in case your neighbour is a cover hog.

T H E M O R E P I L L OW S THE MERRIER It never hurts to have extra pillows in the bedroom. Unless, of course, a pillow fight breaks out.

HOST THE MOST

The possibility of hosting family and friends is a good reason to take these handy hosting tips to heart over the holidays.

SNACK TIME OUT Put a platter of cookies out for your gaming guests to enjoy while they play. But make sure there are some left for you-know-who on the night before Christmas.

GAME ON Go with furniture that doubles as a game, like the Crosby Checkers Table. That way everybody wins — except people who are terrible at checkers.

If family game night is in the cards, make sure style is on the table and comfortable seating is on the floor. The Boyd Sofa is a modern take on a classic English Chesterfield, and it’s the perfect strategy if you want to win the favour of your guests and their bottoms.

TULLE FOR THE JOB

There’s no such thing as too much tulle during the holidays. It can Christmas-ify anything: gifts, tables, trees. It could probably double as a belt for your holiday outfit, too, but for now let’s just stick to home décor.

B Y E - B Y E , B OW S Who needs bows when you’ve got tulle? Tie one onto to your presents for some extra stylish defense against gift snoopers.

TREE PLEASER Make sure there’s plenty of tulle to go around the house and the tree. Just start at the top and work your way to the bottom.

T U L L E O N T H E TA B L E Side tables, dinner tables, coffee tables, table tables. They can all be draped in a little tulle to spread joy around your home.

BRANCH OUT This year, get adventurous and use your ornaments on something other than your tree. There are all sorts of things they can get hooked on. But still, why get hung up on hanging them when you can think outside the box and put them in, oh, say, a bowl?

WAY TO THE TOP STEP 1: DON’T TAKE LIGHTING LIGHTLY Lighting can make or break your tree. Not literally, but getting it right can really bring it all together.

Wrapping the lights around the tree from top to bottom is best, but performing a little zigzagging motion up and down as you go will balance the distribution of lights. Or you could just go with this pre-lit tree and say it was all you. We won’t tell.

STEP 2: IT TAKES TULLE, BABY

Tulle: the decoration so nice we’ve mentioned it twice. But that’s because it really is the multi-tool of holiday decorating, especially when it comes to beautifying your tree.

WRAP IT You’ve seen this before, but have you done it before?

If not, we highly recommend it. Wrap tulle around the tree from top to bottom for a beautiful flowy look.

DRAPE IT If the thought of wrapping makes you dizzy, draping strips of tulle from the top of the tree will create a simple elegant look that won’t give you vertigo.

STUFF IT Keep things even simpler by cutting small strips of tulle, folding them into little bunches, then stuffing them between branches.

27

STEP 3: GET THE HANG OF IT There’s no question that ornaments are the best part of a Christmas tree.

That’s why we have plenty of colour themes to work with or mix together to make your tree absolutely stunning.

And if you decide to go a step further and decorate your ladder, just make sure you’re done using it.

ST E P 4: T HE FI NI SHI NG TOUCHES At the end of the day, you’ve got to put your touch on your tree: a little tinsel, some ornaments, and a unique mix of colours. It’s your Christmas canvas from top to bottom, so get creative and show your style. Just remember there’s a backside, too.
