How to Get Your House Christmas-ready

 It’s the most wonderful time of the year – and it’s well worth making a big fuss about Christmas. It’s all about comfort, celebration, warmth and cheer, so we think it’s important to make your home reflect this. 

So this is a quick and easy guide to make your house Christmas-ready – from the minute you open your door!

The Holly & The Ivy

You want to welcome in guests the minute they arrive, so what better way to mark the festive season than to hang a wreath on the door? B&M have a range of real and artificial Christmas wreaths on offer – from pre-lit ones to heart-shaped ones. And for crafters, we even supply the frames so you can create your own homemade wreaths from scratch!

Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire

Your mantelpiece is the focus of your room this Christmas, so go mad.  We have a wide selection of boughs and garlands on offer that you can drape over the sill. These can stand by themselves or be combined with LED lights for an evening glow. We also love the addition of candles, from church pillar to our bestselling Karina Bailey scented candles.

Pair with a Christmas floor decoration like the Scandi-inspired light up wooden towers, houses and churches that can sit either side of the fire.

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree

No festive decoration guide should miss out on the tree! Our range of real and artificial Christmas trees are perfect for lounges, hallways and dining rooms. Plus, we couldn’t stock trees without some incredible decorations. From rose gold baubles to sequin stars, hot pink 3D trees and ornate snowflakes – you can decorate your Christmas tree in a stylish and affordable way.

God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen 

Putting your feet up needs to be done in style at Christmas, which is why we’ve stocked up on the most sumptuous crushed velvet and faux fur throws, and oversized festive chenille cushions. With the blend of soft fabrics and comfiness, your sofa will be the perfect refuge after Christmas lunch.

T’was the Night Before Christmas

Treat yourself and your guests to some Christmassy bedding for the festive period. Our range includes winter wonderland brushed cotton sheets, Nordic-style bedding, festive stag duvet sets as well as winter animal printed sheets for children. Chuck in a few Sherpa throws and some plush cushions and you have a bed fit for a festive king or queen!
