CHRISTMAS ENTERTAINING

It's that time of year again!  We are so excited about Christmas and inspired by the traditional decorations and styling that we have seen... gone are the days of only silver and gold decorations and we are embracing the colour! 

We are particularly drawn to the rich burgundy, fuchsia and antique rose in the shops and on social media.  Below are a selection of our favourite images from the Wickenden Hutley archive and inspiration from Instagram and blogs.

Whether you have children in the house or not, we all love to be reminded of the magic of Christmas.  The current resurgence of antique decorations means it is now very easy to create a more personal style for your tree and decorations.  

We love to recommend purchasing a few pieces every year that represent what you have achieved or where you have been (a little house for a house move, an animal for a new pet or decorations from your travels etc.).  You will soon have a good collection and will love to get them out every year and remember the various events.  Below is our selection of finds to 'Get the Look' for your festive entertaining...

Easter Egg Hunts!


EASTER IS NEARLY HERE!

We are days away from the long Easter weekend so whatever your plans are we have collated some of the sweetest decorative ideas to help you bring the Easter joy to your weekend with style.

From hosting Easter lunch to an egg hunt or attending a party or a weekend away there are some delicious products available from some of our favourite suppliers. 

Dressing the table with some stunning new glassware and bowls is an effective way of injecting a fresh feel to your Easter table. Fill vases with freshly cut flowers in soft colours such as roses, blossom and foliage.
