Christmas is more than a date in the diary. It's the glow of fairy lights on a dark evening, the excitement of decorating the tree, fresh festive details around the home and that feeling of wanting to stay in just a little longer. And when it comes to creating a home that feels ready for the season, it's the little things that make all the difference.
Whether you're drawn to classic Christmas colours, playful decorations or a more natural, understated look, the La Redoute Christmas Shop has plenty of inspiration for bringing the festive spirit into every corner of your home. From statement Christmas decorations to seasonal bedding and finishing touches for the living room, discover how to make your space feel a little more magical this Christmas.
Christmas Decorations That Set the Scene
There's something special about the moment the Christmas decorations come out. Suddenly, the everyday feels a little more exciting, and familiar rooms take on a whole new character.
Start with the Christmas tree, the natural centrepiece of festive decorating. Traditional baubles and shimmering ornaments will always have their place, but mixing colours, finishes and shapes can give your tree a more individual feel. Add twinkling Christmas lights, decorative hanging ornaments and a garland or two to bring the whole look together.
Then take the festive feeling beyond the tree. Christmas wreaths and garlands can transform a doorway, mantelpiece or staircase, while smaller decorations bring seasonal details to shelves, side tables and windowsills. For an extra touch of warmth, introduce candles, decorative lights and little flashes of sparkle.
The trick is to create a look that feels like you. Go all out with colour and playful details, keep things simple with natural textures, or mix old favourites with new finds for a Christmas home that feels personal rather than perfectly coordinated.
Four Christmas Trends to Inspire Your Home
Looking for a fresh take on festive decorating? La Redoute's four Christmas trends for 2026 offer different ways to bring the season to life, whether you love bold colour, traditional details or a quieter, nature-inspired look.
Merry & Bright
Christmas is the perfect excuse to have a little fun with colour. Merry & Bright celebrates a more playful approach to festive decorating, with vibrant accents and cheerful details that bring energy to your home. Think eye-catching decorations, colourful baubles and unexpected combinations that make your Christmas tree and living spaces feel full of personality.
It's a look for anyone who believes Christmas should be anything but ordinary.
Heritage Noël
Some Christmas traditions never lose their appeal. Heritage Noël takes inspiration from the nostalgia of a classic festive home, where familiar colours, decorative details and timeless Christmas motifs create a sense of occasion.
Bring the look to life with traditional tree decorations, rich festive tones and details that feel as though they belong in Christmases past. It's a style that celebrates the rituals we return to every year, with plenty of character and charm.
Nordic Lights
For a more understated take on Christmas, Nordic Lights offers inspiration for a festive home with a softer feel. Think a considered approach to decorating, with a focus on light, atmosphere and details that complement your existing interiors.
Choose decorations that work beautifully together, introduce a gentle glow with Christmas lights and candles, and let simple details make their mark. The result is a look that feels calm and contemporary while still bringing plenty of festive spirit.
Winter Woodland
Bring the beauty of the outdoors inside with Winter Woodland. Inspired by the natural world, this trend is all about creating a festive atmosphere with a connection to nature.
Think woodland-inspired decorations, foliage, natural-looking textures and details that evoke frosty winter landscapes. Add wreaths and garlands to your festive displays, or introduce nature-inspired ornaments to your tree for a look that feels warm, inviting and a little closer to the outdoors.

Bring Christmas Into the Living Room
Once the tree is up and the lights are glowing, the living room becomes the place to settle in, catch up and enjoy the season. A few well-chosen details can make it feel ready for Christmas without changing everything about the space.
Christmas cushions and throws are an easy way to introduce festive colour and texture. Layer them over your sofa or favourite armchair, mixing soft fabrics with decorative details to create a look that feels inviting. You could lean into your chosen Christmas trend or simply add a few seasonal accents to the colours you already love.
Lighting makes a difference, too. Fairy lights, candles and decorative lamps create a softer atmosphere as the evenings draw in, while wreaths and garlands add a festive finishing touch to mantelpieces, shelves and doorways.
And don't forget the Christmas tree itself. Whether you prefer a full, statement-making tree or something more understated, your decorations can bring the whole room together. It's all about creating a space you'll want to spend time in, long after the presents have been opened.
Christmas Bedding for Cosy Winter Nights
Festive decorating doesn't have to stop at the living room door. Your bedroom deserves a little Christmas magic, too, and seasonal bedding is an easy way to give it a fresh feel.
Christmas bedding can make an instant difference, bringing festive patterns, seasonal colours and a playful touch to your sleep space. Pair it with soft cushions, an extra throw and warm bedside lighting to create a bedroom that feels especially inviting when the temperature drops.
If bold festive prints aren't your thing, you can still capture the mood with rich winter shades, tactile layers and softer seasonal accents. The idea is to make your bedroom feel like a place to retreat to after a busy day, whether you're curling up with a book, enjoying a lazy morning or simply escaping the Christmas bustle for a little while.

Set the Scene for Christmas Dining
Christmas is made for gathering around the table, from relaxed breakfasts to long lunches and evenings spent catching up over another helping. A festive table setting makes those moments feel even more special.
Start with Christmas tableware that sets the tone. You might choose traditional festive motifs, bring in a few playful details or keep the look simple with pieces that complement your everyday dinnerware. Tablecloths, runners and placemats help create a base for your setting, while serving dishes and glassware bring everything together.
For the finishing touches, try candlelight, decorative foliage or a seasonal centrepiece. Mixing different textures and a few carefully chosen accents can make your table feel considered without becoming overly formal.
And remember, it doesn't need to look like a picture-perfect display. The best Christmas tables leave plenty of room for good food, full plates and everyone gathered around together.
Make Every Corner Feel a Little More Festive
You don't need to decorate every room from top to bottom to make your home feel ready for Christmas. Sometimes, it's a handful of thoughtful details that make the biggest difference.
A wreath on the front door creates a welcoming first impression. A garland on the stairs brings a little festive charm to an everyday space. Christmas candles and decorative lights add a gentle glow, while smaller ornaments can turn a shelf or side table into a seasonal display.
Look for opportunities to bring the same colours and textures through different rooms, too. A few repeated details can help your Christmas decor feel connected, while leaving plenty of space for each room to have its own personality.
Above all, choose decorations that make you happy. Whether that's a tree filled with colourful baubles, a bedroom dressed in festive bedding or a living room lit by the soft glow of candles, your Christmas home should reflect the way you love to celebrate.
