Merry Christmas! It is the season of hot chocolate, wine, family dinner and holiday movies. After all, it is the end of the year when you are allowed to sit back and relax. In addition to great food and family time, Christmas also calls for serious gifting. It is the perfect time to tell your family and friends you love them by putting some thought into the decoration and gifts that you pick.
If you are running late on your Christmas shopping this year, we recommend that you look at this list that we have curated for you.
Decor
Instead of hanging celebratory lights all around the house, this Christmas you can refurbish some old glass bottles with fairy lights. You can also swap the bottles with unused vases.
Choose uniform accent colour and extend it not just to your living room, but kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms also. We recommend gold as it is easy to find cutlery, linen and even candles in this colour.
While Christmas trees are an irreplaceable part of festive decor, this time try to make a tree of pictures. Print out treasured moments and stick them on a wall in the shape of a tree.
Use the good old blackboard and chalk to decorate your house with positive messages. You can buy blackboards of different shapes and sizes.
Candles are another great way to light up a place. Opt for scented candles to create an aura of festivity
Gifts
Personalised gifts: Use the opportunity to look up sites that make personalised gifts. From favourite quotes and names on stationery to a saree or jacket with a name stitched/ painted on it – there is a lot you can personalise.
Curated gift box: You can curate food boxes, stationery sets, apparel trunks or mix them all together to create a surprise box.
Gift a subscription: From streaming platforms to books and even makeup, you can subscribe for just about anything on the internet. Pick a subscription based on the taste of the person you are buying the gift for.
Classes/workshops: From cooking classes to pottery, you can tag along with a friend or family member to learn a new skill by booking a session.
Gift card: Take the easy route out and go to an e-commerce site or a popular brand and pick a gift card. This way, your loved ones can utilise the card to buy what they deem fit.
