When do we realize that Christmas is approaching? The festive spirit begins with small, cherished traditions. From the first lights that come on in the afternoon and the new decorations we mix in with the ones we pull out of the boxes every year, to the family table filled with favorite flavors, IKEA highlights 5 favorite traditions and offers ideas for adding our own festive touch to our home.
1. It all starts with the first lights
It’s that moment when it starts to get dark outside; we turn on the lights, and the house immediately takes on a Christmas atmosphere. A string of lights or a decorative lamp is all it takes to add a festive touch to even the smallest corner of the house. With IKEA’s STRÅLA series, you can choose from subtle lighting to more striking combinations of lights, depending on the style of each room.
2. The tree takes center stage in the home
Some choose the classic large tree, others prefer small decorative trees, while some look for alternative options. There are those who start decorating in early November and those who leave it to the last minute. With the VINTERFINT collection, IKEA offers decorating options for every style and space, because there’s more than one way to decorate for Christmas.
3. Playful Decorative Elements
The holiday season is a chance to add a little humor and playfulness to your home decor. In the VINTERFINT and STRÅLA collections, you’ll find cute reindeer, Christmas elves inspired by Scandinavian tradition, and little snowmen that can find a spot on the table, on a shelf, or next to the Christmas tree.
4. The festive table that brings us all together
A meal with friends, a family breakfast, or dinner with our loved ones. Christmas is full of reasons for us all to gather around the table. And here, everyone has their own style: from a classic, carefully set table to a more relaxed one with color and playful details. From plates and napkins to the smallest details, with VINTERFINT’s suggestions, we can create a festive table that suits us and our guests.
5. The flavors we look forward to all year long
Cookies fresh out of the oven, traditional holiday sweets, and little treats make the house smell like… Christmas. With the Christmas treats from the VINTERSAGA line, we can enjoy our favorite festive flavors or offer them as a small, sweet gift to our loved ones.
Because, after all, Christmas isn’t the same for everyone. It’s the little traditions, the favorite flavors, and the people we choose to share these moments with.
