On the hunt for Christmas table décor ideas? Elsa de Wit, buyer for Grandiflora,<br />
shared the latest trends and tips to help you plan your Christmas table.<br />
While we’re still at work,<br />
it’s hard to think about<br />
the upcoming Christmas<br />
holidays, but the truth is<br />
it is just over eight weeks<br />
away. “I attended the<br />
world renowned Frankfurt<br />
Christmas Expo earlier this<br />
year to familiarize myself with<br />
this year’s Christmas trends<br />
and colours and hot off the<br />
press…is the colour pink in<br />
all shades with a touch of<br />
purple. If these colours won’t<br />
work I recommend you go<br />
for the Tiffany look adding a touch of antique gold with<br />
the mint to give you a warm and classic style. If you feel<br />
this contemporary style isn’t for you rather choose the<br />
old, traditional style choosing bottle green, dark reds and<br />
accessorise with golds and silver and a touch of white. For<br />
a more formal look and feel – combine your antique gold<br />
and black.”<br />
Decorating your tree<br />
Elsa suggests using a combination of different colours and<br />
textures with a little of glitter to give you the festive feel.<br />
Faux birds are also trending this year. For a whimsical style<br />
you could add fairies and elves.<br />
