You do not need boxes of decorations to make a home feel like Christmas. Swapping a few cushion covers and laying a festive runner on the table changes a room in minutes, and when January comes, everything packs flat into a drawer until next year.
Pick a Christmas Colour Scheme
- Classic red and green: warm, traditional and cosy. Pair with natural wood, pine and candlelight.
- Nordic white and grey: calm and modern, with reindeer, snowflakes and stag motifs.
- Gold and deep green: elegant and grown-up, lovely with brass candlesticks and eucalyptus.
- Navy and silver: crisp, wintry and a little unexpected.
Choose one scheme for the whole room and repeat it on the sofa and the table so everything feels connected.
Styling the Sofa
Keep your everyday cushions and simply change the covers. A few tips:
- Use one or two festive prints as the stars, and support them with plain or textured covers in one of the same colours.
- On a three-seater, try two 50 x 50 cm covers at the back and two 45 x 45 cm festive covers in front.
- Our covers are double-sided, so a cushion can show a festive print on one side.
- Add a chunky knit throw and fairy lights for instant warmth.

Styling the Christmas Table
A runner gives your table a festive base that works for everyday meals in December and the big day itself.
- Everyday: runner, a bowl of pine cones or clementines, and a pair of candles.
- Christmas Day: runner, a low garland of greenery down the centre, candles at different heights, and napkins in your accent colour.
- Keep it low: centrepieces under 30 cm tall let guests see each other across the table.
- Tablecloth plus runner: lay a festive runner over a plain white or linen cloth for a layered, restaurant look.
For the right length, see our table runner size guide.
Beyond the Living Room
- A short runner on the hallway console or sideboard welcomes guests.
- A pair of festive cushions on the bed makes a guest room feel special.
- A runner along the kitchen island sets the scene for Christmas baking.
