TOP 5
CHRISTMAS
DECORATING
TIPS FROM
THE ONE
1. We associate
Christmas with specific
fragrances. Theres
nothing like good
scented Christmas
candles spread around
the house to get into the
holiday spirit.
2. Flickering candlelight
creates that cosy festive
feeling. Group together
different sized decorative
candleholders and create
a beautiful display for
your dining table.
3. Drape strings of lights
around your staircase
balustrade or simply put
them in a vase for
magical holiday dcor.
4. For the ultimate
centrepiece, fill a large,
clear glass vase with
different baubles or fill
jars with red and white
peppermint balls for a
playful look. Have fun!
5. Incorporate lanterns
into your Christmas
decoration and surround
them with greenery and
pinecones for a classic
display.

A combination of candle
holders from Eichholtz
creates a sleek and
impactful statement
for your festive table.
Running a garland from
Royal Christmas is
a great option as well.
They are already
dressed with elegant
baubles, which will save
a lot of time.
In my opinion, New
Years Eve is the best
time to indulge in a
glitter fest! You can get
a selection of oversized
(giant) champagne or
cocktail glasses from
LSA, sprinkle them all
with glitter, and place
a candle in the middle.
Illume has a wide range
of seasonal scents to
choose from. These
decorative item can be
used to add a touch of
sparkle to your coffee
tables, side tables,
dining tables, anywhere
really! They are really the
perfect mood setter.

ADVICE&INFO
My Space
is a true representation
of how we live the
designers we wear, the
homeware and
accessories we have in our
personal collections, the
way we live and even the
dishes we cook at home!
Ultimately, we wanted
to create a concept which
was elegant, promoted
a healthy lifestyle and
continues to surprise
Dubai. From the brands
we love, to sharing recipes
which have been passed
down to us from our
mothers, we wanted to
create a space where
people really feel at
home as soon as they
walk through the door.
HOW WOULD YOU
DESCRIBE YOUR OWN
PERSONAL INTERIOR
STYLE?
ALEX: Comfortable,
colorful and beautiful, one
of a kind pieces.
EMMA: Bohemian chic.
I love art so there are a lot
of contemporary pieces
throughout my home
along with a few design
items and a mix of pieces
I have picked up
throughout my travels.
HOW DO YOU
DECORATE YOUR
HOME AT CHRISTMAS?
DESCRIBE YOURSELF IN THREE WORDS: Alex: Aesthetically-inclined, balanced & modern. Emma: Rock, cool & elegant
