Christmas Countdown has begun and so has the planning on my side for this Festive season. Earlier this week I shares a FREE Christmas shopping gift list printable to assist and today I have some inspiration for some Merry and Bright Christmas decorating ideas.
Yolandi from A Zesty Life and I collaborated on a monochrome Christmas shoot last year and this year we stepped it up with a Bright and Colorful shoot!
You know that my aesthetic is minimalist and I prefer monochrome and neutral colours over crazy colourful anything. Yolandi got all excited about a colourful theme which I just couldn’t get my head around. One evening it all just came together when I decided to narrow my version of the theme down to just using reds and pinks. It feels minimal and colourful at the same time, right? Yolandi still went for a way more colourful setting than me. Her version is all colour with disco balls (see it here). One disco ball was enough for me.
We teamed up with Le Creuset to include some of their gorgeous items on the table as well that included some heart bowls and their gorgeous dinnerware.
DIY Christmas decorations
The cones that I made for the Christmas table center piece are really simple to make and is a way to add something interesting to your Christmas table. I made use of some A4 card board paper and added mini Christmas trees that I borrowed from a friend. The Christmas crackers were also a DIY and I will be sharing the advents calendar DIY with you soon.
What is on the Christmas menu this year?
Yolandi made some pretty delicious treats for the shoot that included this no-churn, strawberry ad rose ice-cream recipe. I literally polished the tub!
