Join our Accessories Buyer, Shelley Cochrane, as she shares her top tips for transforming your home into a Nordic Christmas haven.
Every Nordic home needs a cosy corner - especially at Christmas. Not only is it a great design feature, but it also doubles up as a great spot to curl up with a mug of your favourite hot chocolate and unwind after a busy day of wrapping presents.
“Use a statement accent chair upholstered in soft faux-fur to create an authentic Nordic feel. Then pair it with a contemporary floor lamp, neutral rug and minimalist coffee table to create a cohesive cosy cabin aesthetic,” explains Shelley.
Up the cosiness factor with lots of cushions, a fleecy throw or two and pine-scented candles. You can even channel the Nordic pared-back aesthetic by introducing a contemporary wooden Christmas tree instead of a traditional fir tree. “Sometimes, less is more so don’t be afraid to remove accessories and keep things simple.”
Hosting Christmas this year? Put your guests up in Scandi style with this hygge-friendly bedroom look. Start with bare, whitewashed walls and slowly build up a Nordic aesthetic with metal-worked accents and a nod to the season with pops of red, gold and green.
“A nordic bed takes centrestage and is usually handcrafted from solid oak or pine,” notes Shelley. “For a classic Scandi vibe, opt for a bed with a simple design and then layer with cosy duvets and pillows.”
While the rest of the look is refreshingly pared-back, when it comes to the floor, the more rugs you can fit in the better. Shaggy, fluffy, woolly - the choice is yours!
And just because it’s Christmas, why not add a festive fir tree strung with fairy lights so your guests can wake up to presents by their nordic bed on Christmas morning?
Christmas is the one time of year when it’s completely acceptable to cover every available surface with accessories. So, here’s our Nordic-inspired take on it…
“You can update the Nordic aesthetic with a glossy sideboard. It’s a great way to keep the look modern. Crafted oak furniture has its place, but don’t feel bound to it,” advises Shelley.
Create a Christmas centrepiece by decorating your sideboard with a statement lamp and festive-inspired foliage. “Pot pourri is a must - it’s perfect for infusing your space with seasonal fragrance,” suggests Shelley.
This Nordic dining room look is laid-back, inviting and exudes a stylish simplicity that we love.
Nordic dining tables come in all shapes and sizes, but they have one thing in common: minimalist design. “Tables with clean lines and a sleek silhouette are the way to go,” advises Shelley. Top tip: explore our dining sets with benches - they’re great for creating a relaxed dining atmosphere because of their social seating set-up.
“Decorate with pine cones, moss and sprigs of fir to create an authentic Nordic tablescape,” suggests Shelley. Then, add faux-fur cushions to keep it cosy.
And if a compact Nordic dining table isn’t quite big enough for your family, take a look at our beautifully crafted oak dining tables for a statement dining set that seats the whole family in style this Christmas.
To create the ultimate Nordic living room interior at Christmas, keep it simple with a neutral palette of white, cream and beige.
Next? “A Scandi-style sofa is a must. Look for a sofa in a soft shade that oozes cosiness,” says Shelley. Our top recommendation is the gorgeous Rene. It boasts inviting pocket sprung seats in a choice of plush leather or fabric and makes the perfect spot for unwrapping presents on Christmas morning.
And if Scandi-style sofas aren’t your thing, don’t worry. You can always dress up your current sofa to give it a Scandi twist with a cream throw and neutral scatter cushions.
A minimalist pine Christmas tree adds a fresh Scandi twist to this neutral Christmas scene while thoughtfully wrapped gifts in amber, green and gold catch the eye and elevate the look with pops of festive glitz.
