Christmas Is A Special Season

December 22, 2016 By Maggi Barnard

Now that I have finally got my head around the fact that it has been a year since last Christmas and that it is actually going to happen again this Sunday I have been filled with Christmas cheer and am excited for the festivities. I love that families get the chance to come together at Christmas and enjoy some special time with truly amazing food. As I sit here and write this column I am already drooling at the thought of my glazed Christmas ham that will hit the table at lunchtime within our home. For me though Christmas is a great time to be grateful and sit back and reflect on the past year.

Christmas styling needs to inject a real wow factor into our homes and set this time of year apart as something really special. The setting creates the atmosphere and it can be easily done regardless of your budget. I love injecting nature into my styling and the bigger the branches the better. We have a great range in-store now of LED trees that feature beautiful snow covered branches that look simply amazing whether they are adorned or not.

Here at Parkes Furniture One we have Christmas presents for everyone in the family and we still have time to deliver to Condobolin if you get excited and can’t fit your purchases in your own car. And remember to take time to just sit and relax this holiday season. Put your feet up and enjoy a rest. See you all in 2017.

Love Karen
