Our Top 7 Holiday Gifts for Christmas 2017

Our Top 7 Holiday Gifts for Christmas 2017

With Christmas fast approaching, it’s the time of year when everybody is either considering the gifts they’ll be buying for their loved ones, or thinking about what they might like for themselves...indeed, possibly both!

This week we’re taking a look at our favorite holiday gifts to help you and your family set the perfect Christmas table on the big day. Let us take you on a journey from preparing the turkey, all the way through to that feeling of having eaten slightly (or much) too much, with your feet up on Christmas night. We have some great gift ideas along the way to help make the day even more special.

For more fantastic ideas and inspiration, be sure to follow Couleur Nature on Pinterest and check out our boards.

Once your delicious meal is over and the plates are all piled up, ready to be washed, it’s time to sit back and relax by the fire. These Winter Fireplace Pinecones are a great way to add a spark (sorry) to the evening - they’re specially treated with a formula which turns the flames of your fireplace a brilliant green for up to 10 minutes. Simply toss a couple into the fire and watch it come alive!

Now put your feet up and enjoy the warmth of the fire as you reflect on your perfect Christmas feast.
