As well as offering up some tips on how to declutter before Christmas, Lynsey explains how to keep our fridges smelling fresh, and even shares some handy hacks to help keep our tinsel, garlands and baubles dust-free. So before you put up your tree, hang those stockings and dust off your Christmas recipe books, make sure you check out this article for some clever tips to get our homes looking spick and span in time for December.

House Beautiful – Ikea’s VINTER collection is inspired by modern ways of celebrating the festive season

Each year we’re blown away by Ikea’s stylish and minimalistic Christmas range, and this year certainly doesn’t disappoint. 2019’s range, which has been coined VINTER, combines a beautiful collection of soft furnishings and home accessories, tableware and cooking utensils, as well as tree decorations and gift wrapping.

Aiming to ensure that the festive period is as stress-free as possible, the range boasts clever storage solutions, as well as stunning fairy lights and lamp shades to create a cosy atmosphere. Also within the collection is Scandinavian-style wrapping paper, gift tags and a ready-to-build gingerbread house, perfect for a cosy night in by the fire. And the best part? Ikea’s price tags never fail to surprise us. With prices starting from as little as £1 for a pack of tree decorations, you’re bound to find something to suit your budget. While the jury’s still out on their first ever Christmas advert, we’re all in agreement that Ikea’s new festive collection is definitely worth checking out.
