Firstly, let's start with the lighting! The way you illuminate your hallway is essential, especially at Christmas time. Plus, your hallway is the first thing your guests will see when you enter your home. So, why not make it ultra-welcoming?! Table lamps and candles will add pools of light to create the effect of 'layers' of light, and give a more magical feel to the space. 

Now, let's move onto the all-important staircase. The first step is to add your fairy lights to your staircase (cast your eye over our fabulous selection if you find yourself short of twinkles). Start by wrapping your choice of light around your banisters, after which you'll be ready to embellish with further adornments. Simply adding these lights to your staircase already screams CHRISTMAS, and might be enough for those of a more minimalist mindset. For maximalists, this is merely your starting point. Ready, get set, GO!

Faux foliage is a magnificent way to create drama on any staircase. On top of this, intertwining faux and real foliage is a really effective way of bringing effortless texture to your staircase display. Whether you're going for something ultra-traditional or a more contemporary feel, there are so many lovely ways to style foliage on your stairs. You can start by tucking your faux vines under your fairy lights, to soften the look and create pools of more or less illumination for variation. Feel free to embellish with real tree branches (curate your perfect collection from your garden, or on a nature walk). For something a little different, you could create a show-stopping pampas grass display in a variety of plush colours for a quirky look that's totally unique to you.

A glorious garland is the perfect way to effortlessly elevate your staircase styling. On top of this, think about accessorising your stairs too.

Style honeycomb balls or disco balls at the bottom of the staircase for a maximalist party look we love - it also  injects a playful edge into your hallway display. Glorious in anyone's book!
