A few weeks ago I shared three different mood boards for minimalist, nature-inspired Christmas decorations, and now December is here I want to show you how I've decorated our home for the festive season. I love dressing the house for Christmas, and I normally turn it into a bit of an event with festive music playing on the speakers and a glass of mulled wine in hand . . .

If you’ve read my regular seasonal candle round-ups and my recent small business Christmas gift guide, you’ll have seen the name Sincerely Lumière pop up several times. And with good reason.

Minimalist Christmas inspiration from the Ask og Eng apartment
One of my highlights from this year's 3 Days of Design in Copenhagen was the Ask og Eng apartment - the home of writer Emily Nathan, which the Norwegian studio had designed from scratch and which was accessible to the public during the festival.

The Edit | Nature-inspired Christmas decorations

Although I try to resist putting up any decorations before December, I’ll be using the next few weeks to plan what I’m going to do, gather things together and start savouring the magic and excitement of the season . . .
Minimalist Halloween styling with pick-your-own pumpkins
October is one of my favourite times of the year, and I always enjoy savouring simple, seasonal pleasures: misty walks, cosy evenings with candles, decorating the house for Halloween...
