GREYSCALE HACK
While the trend in previous years was about evoking a sense of wellbeing and fulfillment, also known as the Danish term Hygge, the decorating style this year takes on a darker tone albeit still injecting the same sense of cosiness. You can perfect a greyscale colour theme by layering the hues, and adding hints of other warm notes for greater impact.

MAKE IT INTIMATE
A small gathering of family and friends can be more meaningful than inviting everyone over at the same time. Have fun setting the table for a group of four or five by making use of the table space to add in twinkling fairy lights, and platters with intricate details. This way, you can ensure that your dinner will be a feast to remember.
