The festive season is approaching fast – so how will you decorate your home this year?

When you put up your Christmas decorations is quite a personal choice. Some swear by the 12 days before rule, others pop theirs up as soon as Halloween is out of the way. Some people like to stick with tradition and use the same decorations they’ve used for decades, others like to change the theme very year. But whatever camp you fall into, there’s no denying that getting your home ready for the festive season should be fun and not stressful.
