MULLED WINE MOMENTS

EAT, DRINK AND BE MERRY

Bring a rich festive feel to your dining table with a cosy colour palette of moss and smoky greens, terracotta, plaster pink and deep reds. Use foliage cuttings and dried hydrangea flowers from the garden to make a country-style garland to adorn a mantelpiece or shelf, alongside a lit and decorated Christmas tree to set the festive scene. For a beautifully styled Christmas table, pair vintage wooden chairs painted in bronze-red with plates in greens and terracotta. Scatter walnuts and satsumas across the surface to complete the natural décor.

ADD A PRETTY TRIM TO YOUR NAPKINS

Give plain linen or cotton napkins an attractive festive embellishment by sewing giant ric-rac trim around the edge to make a contrasting border. We love this combination of plaster pink linen with raspberry red trim, but tailor the colours to match your Christmas table theme. Simply sew the trim directly to the napkins for an instant new look.
