Having only just reached autumn, we suddenly find ourselves on the fast-track towards Christmas. One of the things we love about Christmas is decorating the house, making it look all seasonal and festive. We have some wonderful ways you can easily spruce up the home, making it all a little bit more magical.
First up, the incredible vintage sledge. “Aren’t sledges for outdoors?” we hear you ask. Well, while these sledges are of course ideal for fun in the snow – although please do remember that they are vintage! – they also fit perfectly into any festive display. Whether you put them under the tree to pile gifts around or include them in a decorative display around the garden, the sledges are beautiful additions, adding that extra touch of rustic style.
And while we unfortunately can’t add any sleighbells for you, our vintage sledges do work wonderfully alongside the ever-popular wooden deer. These charming decorative pieces stand approximately 53cms in height, so they fit wonderfully in and around the home.
Made from quality hardwood they are also extremely long-lasting and equally suited for in- and outdoor use. Of course, if you use them outside, we do recommend you weatherproof the wood regularly to protect it from the elements.
Having guests over for Christmas? Help them find your home with a personalised House Name Crate. Available in different sizes, you can choose from a variety of colours and two lines of personalised text, both of which are lovingly and expertly added by hand.
Personalised Present-ations
Now that the main decorations are sorted, let’s turn our attention to the giving of gifts. There’s no denying it, we all love receiving presents, no matter how old we are. This year, make the gift-giving even more special with the one of our personalised crates.
Our Mini Crate for example easily holds a couple of plants or other smaller gifts. Add some personalisation in form of the intended recipient’s name and they will immediately spot their presents under the tree!
Giving bigger gifts or simply want to help parents keep their children’s room tidy? Our half-bushel crate is definitely up to the challenge! Ideal for larger gifts the included handles also make it easy to transport, making light work of getting presents home after Christmas.
Speaking of which…
Once Christmas if over, our crates are great help when it comes to packing your decorations away and storing them safely for next year. Pictured here, our half-bushel crate is a fantastic storage solution. Strong, sturdy and stackable, our crates protect even the most fragile of items – just remember to add a bit of padding for any of the more delicate items. The addition of an optional lid and set of castors round these crates out nicely.
Of course, all of these crates also make incredible gifts, so if you are stuck for ideas, why not give your loved ones something uniquely theirs that they can enjoy for years to come!
