It’s starting to look a lot like jul here in Malmö, and just across town, in the French-Swedish home of interior designer Natalie Coquand the decorations are up in all kinds of pretty, festive ways.
Think boxwood wreaths tied with red ribbon and the tinklng of bells, advent candles nestled in moss, vibrant amaryllis, pine-cone garlands, and a fabulous Christmas tree adorned with lights and ornaments. 'Tis the season to feel jolly (and warm and cosy!) and her home has all the vibes I love. Plus, I am sure it smells divine too! Welcome to Christmas chez Natalie!
So festive! All the candlelight and greenery really help to brighten up the darkness and the monochrome of the bare branches outside. Our house is brimming with it too (I’m looking forward to sharing more on Friday).
Does any of Natalie’s holiday décor stand out to you? If you decorate for Christmas, how far along are you?
Usually, I like to put up our tree after my birthday (which is the 6th of December), since that’s the way we’ve always done it in my family. But this year we’ve been a little overzealous, and the tree is already up and glowing—and I have to say, I really love it! I remember once asking here on the blog what the latest anyone has ever left their tree up was, and someone confessed they left it up all year until the next Christmas. It did make me laugh!
If you'd like to see more photos of Natalie’s home, take a look at the full (non-Christmassy) tour here. She also shares beautiful inspiration on her Instagram.
Wishing you a happy mid-week!
