Feel More Festive This December
For as long as I can remember, Christmas has always been my favourite time of year,
and also the time where I feel most excited and full of spirit, but honestly, that deep Christmas spirit doesn't always come naturally and I occasionally need a push to feel a little more festive, even with Christmas only days away!
So I've decided to do a post dedicated to anyone who many be lacking that festive feeling,
and share with you my tips to feeling more festive this winter.
Christmas Music -
I find that singing and dancing my way around the house to some of my favourite
Christmas songs is always a great way to start feeling more festive, whether I'm
wrapping presents or just cleaning the house, I'll always put my favourite
Christmas music on when it hits December.
Decorations -
Another great way to help you feel more festive is to decorate the places that you use
most in your house and give them a more Christmassy feel, for example, my vanity desk
and computer desk are both places that I am at a few times a day, so adding a few lights
and a little tinsel can make all the difference in the area, and then in turn you, feeling a
little more festive.
Scented Candles -
Personally for me, nothing beats being sat at my desk, whilst its dark outside, burning
some gorgeously festive candles close by, and more often than not, I try to go for scents that are either very typical Christmas scents or ones that remind me of Christmas when I was younger.
Christmas Books -
Personally, one of my favourite things to do when I'm trying to feel more festive is to sit and read a good Christmas book, I can just sit back and escape into my own little world imaging the little towns in the book looking all whimsical and festive, which always makes me feel a little warm inside and ready to decorate the house head to toe.
Hot-Chocolate With Toppings -
Making myself a nice hot-chocolate and adding a few toppings like cream and marshmallows, almost always makes me feel more festive, especially on those days where it's foggy out and there is frost on the grass and rooftops, a good series and I'm sorted.
Festive Bath Bombs -
Relaxing in a nice hot bath is one of my favourite things to do, and more times than not I love adding little things like bath bombs into them just to add extra fragrance and sass, so simply switching up your normal ones for bath bombs a little more seasonal ones will
definitely get you feeling more festive in no time.
Christmas Movies -
It may seem like an obvious one, but nothing puts me in more of a Christmassy and festive mood than sitting on my sofa under a fluffy blanket and watching my favourite Christmas movies, not only do they make you feel whimsical, but also ready for the season.
Cards & Presents -
Nothing feels more Christmassy to me than being sat on the floor on a winters evening wrapping presents in festive paper and writing out cards to friends and family, add that to a few others tips I've shared, like hot-chocolate with toppings and it makes for a perfect festive night in.
