Get Christmas-ready with Home Centre

 
Christmas is only a month away and if you haven’t started your preparations yet, we suggest you begin now. While we are all excited to spend time with friends and family, we know how equally stressful a time this can be. 
 
Lights, decorations, gifts and yes, the food – Christmas sure is incomplete without all of this! To make lives easier, we have prepared a checklist for you to ensure you don’t miss out on the must-dos.

5 Weeks to Go: Pick a Theme
 
Kick-start this year’s Christmas planning by choosing a festive theme. Pick a theme that suits your home’s style for starters and keep a tab of all the things you need to decorate. The traditional red and gold, classic white or the dramatic dark blues and rich purples – what do you feel like this year?
 
This is also a good time to get rid of the old and bring in the new. Make your living room the attraction by getting a brand new sofa or dining table – adding newness to your home this festive season.

You may think shopping is easy but festive shopping requires planning and tons of it. Cute stockings, glass baubles, mini Santas, reindeer centerpieces – adorn your house with some fun festive decorations this year. 
 
dining
 
While decorations are vital, do remember to do a quick check on your tableware essentials. Setting up an attractive dining table setting with an impressive range of crockery, glassware, serveware and table linen when you host a festive dinner is always a plus.

Coming to the trickiest part of shopping – yes, we are talking about the gifts. Have a gift list ready with budgets et al to make the process faster. Start 4 weeks in advance and spare yourself those long queues!

Food and festivities go hand in hand. Once you’ve decided on the menu, start shopping for ingredients. Start with baking and proceed to main course meals as you approach the D-day. Dig up old recipes and hunt for new and get ready to make memorable holiday meals this year.
