BLOGMAS DAY SIX: 5 SIMPLE WAYS TO IMPROVE FESTIVITY!

Wednesday, 4 December 2013
Hey There! DAY 6, WHAT?! Today's is going to be a bit different too, like yesterday, we will be doing a joint post! On how to do a few, five to be exact, little things to make your room/house look/feel a little more festive! Yay! These things do NOT cost a bomb and are super easy to get hold of! This time of year, you can get these five things form almost any store! Send us links in the comments to your blog, or pictures of your room that has a little bit of these things in!

1-    FAIRY LIGHTS! We are both obsessed with these and they improve festivity by nearly 100%, just drape these over curtains, along ceilings etc. To push the room even more festive, use warm white lights as these make things even cosier! Also, if your fairy lights can, set them to the twinkle setting, that’ll do the trick! Twinkling fairy lights always remind us of Christmas!

2-    HANG CARDS ON STRING! What do you do with the Christmas cards you receive from your friends/family? Well how about hanging them on string/yarn and draping them across the ceiling/wall? This will look SO much better than crowding them all onto the mantelpiece or sticking them all over the doors.

3-    CANDLES! We can’t stress how much we love these things! These are essential in any festive home! They are so cute! For extra points, buy a festive scented candle, we know Yankee Candles and Glade do some amazing Christmassy smells! BUT, you HAVE to be careful with fire remember! And don’t use if your parents don’t allow it, I know that Amy’s don’t allow candles in bedrooms, cause she’ll set the house on fire, and knowing her, she probably would! If you are allowed, then GO FOR IT!

4-    BLANKETS&CUSHIONS! Awh, nothing better than cuddling up under a festive blanket! And its perfect in the winter! Even better if they're super festive colours such as red, green, burgundy etc. These definitely make everything more Christmassy and more comfy! Cuddle up in these while you write your Christmas lists, or even your new years resolution!
5- TINSEL! You've got to love this stuff! So draping surfaces in this sparkly wonder will not only make your room look festive, but also reflect light making it sparkle! You can get all kinds of colours and themes and tinsel is SUPER cheap this time of year and you can get it almost anywhere! Even in Pound land!
So! here were 5 very simple ways to make you feel more festive this month! (and look it!) why don't you tell us in the comments what decor you have this Christmas, and when you put your Christmas Tree up, Every one has different days! Mine (Amy) is really sad, the day we break up from school, so the 20th...

We love hearing from you guys!

Amy & Megan
