Some might say it’s simply not Christmas without an overload of sweet treats and festively bright decorations. Well, our Sweet Gingerbread Christmas collection has both in spades!
Inspired by mischievous gingerbread characters and larger-than-life treats, this collection is sweet enough to melt even the Grinchiest of hearts.
The striking colour palette boasts traditional Christmas favourites of red, green and white mixed with soft mint, pink and gorgeous baby blue – creating a visual feast that is truly sensational.
It’s impossible not to smile as you find yourself discovering the endless joyful treasures featured throughout the collection. Of course, there’s gingerbread boys and girls of all shapes and sizes, along with gingerbread houses too. Candy canes, lollipops and cake slices ensure that there is a sweet sensation at every turn.
Let’s dive in and discover the magic and wonder of the Sweet Gingerbread Christmas decorating collection.
Sweet Gingerbread Overload on the Christmas Trees!
That’s right, trees. As in more than one! There was simply too much festive sweetness to share that we couldn’t fit it all on one tree!
We’ve opted for one all-white tree and for something really special, the main tree is a pre-lit snow flocked PINK Fir Christmas tree! These stunning colours are the perfect backdrop to compliment the softer shades of mint and baby blue in this collection, and they also really allow the bright reds and greens to really pop.
Big, bold and bright is definitely the brief when it comes to decorating your Sweet Gingerbread Christmas tree (or trees!)
Oversized lollipops, candy canes and other sweet treat tree decorations are nestled among the branches, along with plenty of colourful gingerbread characters and houses.
The whimsical fun of this collection means that there are so many fun options for tree toppers. Add plenty of picks and perhaps a cheeky character or two to suit the rest of your tree.
An abundance of billowing ribbon in contrasting textures and patterns is a must. Include ribbon as part of your show-stopping topper and then continue them throughout the rest of your tree too.
Fill the rest of the space with beautiful decorative and personalised baubles…
…more brightly coloured decorations…
…and finally add plenty of life and texture with stunning flowers, sprays and picks.
