Homestyle Magazine HomeStyle Christmas Special 2016 Sonderausgabe

Christmas is one of our favourite times of year, so it seems fitting to join the HomeStyle team just as our first ever Christmas Special comes into being! The team has worked hard to bring you everything you need to have your best Christmas ever! Inside you’ll find all kinds of exciting how-tos to get the handmade look, including decorations, décor and gifts. The felt decs on page 36 are particularly fab, and as felt is no-fray, it’s super easy to work with – double winner! The kitchen is the heart of the home, especially at Christmastime, so we also have a host of tasty recipes, from a clever twist on the classic mince pie on page 92, ideal for when visitors drop by, to a whole meal planner from page 107, which will have breakfast, lunch and dinner sorted – perfect if you have guests staying. We’ll be trying out the America-style sweets on p96 – peppermint bark laced with candy canes, what’s not to love? Luckily there’s plenty of time to get your home ready for the big event, and if you’ve started to think about your scheme this year, then flick on over to page 12, where we have the three top trends. Looking to update those tired old baubles? On page 32 there are six mini tree ideas including our Scandi-style cover star, which is just the thing for ringing in the changes. Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas!
