What’s new for 2022? Christmas Décor Trends
This year, we’re bringing a whole host of new and exciting products to the seasonal festivities. From our towering Starry Night Trees, to our Which? Best Buy awarded ConnectPro string lights; our rattan reindeer and festive figures, we have it all. Light up the faces of the ones you love and bring the magic of Christmas home.
This year, we’re expecting to see lots of warm white wonderlands with the ambient glow of warm white LEDs making for a toasty welcome in contrast to a cold, dark winter’s night. A cooler alternative can be found in the shape of ice white and crisp blue lights - this modern twist on the timelessly classic white is a huge trend for this year and can easily add a festive finish that Jack Frost himself would be proud of.
The star of the show?
Typically viewed as one of the more traditional symbols of Christmas, the star is now so much more than just a tree topper. Simplistic and sleek, or rattan and sturdy; flashing or static, the star is a Christmas décor essential that is guaranteed to nova go out of style.
Whether you opt for an icy white or burst of colour, you can find plenty of inspiration in our style guide. Here, you will find our latest products, stylish statement pieces, and useful hints and tips courtesy of Caroline over at @HomeSweetBabe on Instagram. So, sit back, get cosy and soak up all things festive.
Christmas Lights and the Celebration of Christmas
Although of course Christmas began as a religious celebration, today, celebrations take on many different forms, across more than 160 countries worldwide and by billions of people. Some traditions we still carry out today, such as putting up Christmas lights and decorations, were originally based around the nativity, but more recent practices are often more secular. Red, gold and green are still the most common colours at Christmas, and these do have religious significance however. It’s hard to imagine a Christmas, as we know it today, without wreaths and garlands, twinkling fairy lights and depictions of Santa, snowmen and reindeer. Lights have moved from the living room, throughout the house, and are increasingly used outdoors, along with various other decorations. There is some uncertainty about the precise date and origin of the use of Christmas trees in the home, but the first recorded use was that of fir trees decorated with apples in Strasbourg in 1605. The first recoded use of candles on trees was by a Silesian Duchess in 1611 and, of course, it’s from this tradition that the practice of decorating our Christmas trees with fairy lights began. Since the 19th century, Christmas trees in the home became commonplace and it’s now rare to find a home without one.
