Christmas teepees are a creative alternative to gazebos and<br />

marquees. Think Christmas-themed cushions and throws, string<br />

lights, sheepskin rugs and a display of Christmas gifts. To complete<br />

the look, hang Christmas stockings on either side of the teepee<br />

entrance, illuminated Christmas words, a teepee-topper and a<br />

Christmas tree. Teepees will make your back garden feel like a<br />

world away, as well as creating a unique dinner ensemble and quirky<br />

backdrop for fun Christmas photos.<br />

CoSy nook<br />

A wooden bench or corner seat can be turned into an inviting and<br />

mesmerising nook on your patio, porch, balcony or entranceway.<br />

Hang a Christmas wreath from the porch ceiling and throw in some<br />

festive cushions, pillows and throws, lighting, Christmas decorations<br />

and a table for food and drink, and you have yourself one cosy<br />

corner to relax in and enjoy.<br />

STARRy nIGHT<br />

Enhance your natural surroundings using garland lights, lanterns and<br />

candles. Wrap string lights around tree trunks and branches or hang<br />

loosely under the tree so that it drapes slightly for an enchanting<br />

feel. A room divider with vertical string lighting creates a magical<br />

backdrop behind sofas and chairs, while a string light tent creates<br />

impact. Illuminated letters which spell out words, such as 'Joy' or<br />

'Ho ho ho' can be used to decorate walls or hang between poles or<br />

from a tree branch.<br />
