Five weeks tomorrow till the Big Day!
Dressing your home for Christmas marks the start of the festive season. And, although we're coming to the close of an economically and environmentally sobering year, that needn't mean scaling down festive celebrations. Indeed, it's even more important to explore how to capture the Christmas spirit while making the least impact on both purse and planet.
Handmade, natural and vintage products are high fashion this season so cash in on the trend by creating your own decorations or supporting small craft producers. Take a walk in the woods to collect pine cones, decorative twigs and evergreen stems. Scour local sales and charity shops for vintage jewellery, pretty china and swatches of old fabrics. Get baking to produce your own tree decorations and edible gifts.
Watch this space over the next few weeks to pick up some great ways to have a green Christmas - or pick up a copy of December's D & G Life magazine for the full text of these tips.
