Although we still do not know with whom we will be able to share a table and good times this Christmas, do not let uncertainty invade you: get inspired by these tips to ensure that the decoration of your home exudes comfort and warmth, with that Christmas touch so special that will transform the environments even if you are only two people, or even if the house does not have many square meters.
2. WHAT IS MISSING FROM YOUR CHRISTMAS TABLE?
While it’s okay to keep up some traditions, try replacing that bright red tablecloth with a new one patterned with contrasting cloth napkins. The most common colors in Christmas table decorations are usually blue, gold, red, silver, and green, but this year is perfect for breaking the rules (only when it comes to Christmas decorations, of course).
There are simple options that will make the moment around the Christmas table ‘close’ while maintaining safety and hygiene standards. For example: what if you put a different cloth napkin so that each diner knows which is theirs? It is more difficult to have different dishes, but with cutlery, table runners, napkins, or details such as rings with Christmas motifs to identify the glasses, you will get each person to abide by the rules in a fun and natural way.
3. OTHER CHRISTMAS DETAILS TO DISTRIBUTE THROUGHOUT THE HOME
You may have to do without a large Christmas tree this year to maintain a safe distance, but you can place the decorations in many places! One option is to use the balls to decorate the table, the doors, and the bathroom. Put your candles in minimalist lamps if you want to illuminate small areas, or in candelabra to dress your Christmas table. You can also use LED garlands in the living room, to enhance textiles such as the sofa blanket or the carpet. Or put the garlands in the corridors, at a suitable height so that your pets are surprised without the risk of ending your Christmas decoration in one fell swoop.
