Hands up – have you started your Christmas shopping yet? We’re kicking off the 2025 festive season with our first gift guide of the year, which is packed with homeware ideas for the interiors lover in your life…

Whether you have an interiors aficionado on your ‘nice’ list this year or are one yourself (don’t forget to reward yourself this Christmas, too) and need a boost of inspiration, I’ve compiled a gift guide filled with homeware items suited to different styles and budgets. Think sculptural vases, elegant wall art, dream-worthy soft furnishings, quirky photo frames, and so much more!

Ready to get into the festive spirit? Let’s begin…

Charming cushions and throws

From maximalist cushions, pared-back bolsters, to chunky throws and tactile blankets, beyond being beautiful, decorative pieces, they are also practical, so in my eyes, an interiors lover can never have too many soft furnishings.

All about the ambience

There is nothing cosier than switching off the big light, sparking some candles, and turning on the soft glow of table lamps. Help your loved ones set the right mood with sense-awakening aromatherapy and ambient lighting. And when it’s time to turn in for the night, a stylish snuffer will come in handy.
