The lights are going up, and there’s a chill in the air… it can only mean one thing! Christmas is almost here, which makes it a brilliant time to think about perhaps putting some festive cheer into your own kitchen. Like all things around kitchen design, it’s all about reflecting your personality, so we’ve got a couple of quick tips for you to get started.
One of the most wonderful things about Christmas is that different people have different interpretations of it, and personal preferences on how they enjoy it. You might want a cuddly, cosy Christmas with a quiet, reflective atmosphere, or you might love all the laughter, loudness and merriment that it brings each year. Quite rightly, the atmosphere in your kitchen should reflect that. If your preference is for a quiet, intimate Christmas, you can opt for dimmer lighting and elegant, strategically placed candles for a truly cosy feel. On the other hand, you might want to go brighter and bolder, with vivid kitchen lighting to illuminate the cheery festive colours from your baubles, fabrics and statement pieces.
When it comes to design, several smaller elements, if used well, can have just as much impact as even the most commanding statement piece. You can incorporate festive colours of green, red and white into your furniture and fabrics through the use of silky throws, vibrant tablecloths and comfortable cushions.
Traditional Christmas decorations are famously versatile as well, and always go down a storm. You might want to temporarily replace a painting or art piece with an exquisite Christmas wreath, or lay a couple of pine cones in carefully chosen corners for a lovely rustic touch. If you’re thinking about replacing any utensils, now can be a great time to do so, and further brighten your kitchen with a dash of red from a boldly-coloured toaster or kettle. (Our Purple Reigns case study is a perfect example of how utensils can be used in this way!)
If you still think your kitchen needs that extra something special, a statement piece might be just what you’re after. A good place to start is a table runner with an endearing Christmas motif, or pretty bows for your dining chairs. It’s worth mentioning candles again, which can add an air of effortless elegance to the proceedings. Meanwhile, a miniature Christmas tree can be decorated in the festive colours of your choice, bringing an instantly recognisable Christmas cheer to the space.

A SLEEK, CONTEMPORARY KITCHEN WITH A T-SHAPED ISLAND
When a client decided to replace the kitchen in his Ribble Valley home, he approached Kitchen Design Centre and Blackburn Showroom Manager Will Hustler after a recommendation from his business partner.
“I’m delighted with the look of the kitchen but also how functional it is. Will really thought about how the kitchen would work from a cooking perspective.”
