Cardiff Local Guide A guide to all Things Cardiff
Shoppers can get into the festive spirit at Cardiff’s John Lewis store from today.
The high street retailer, situated on the Hayes, has launched its Christmas collection, consisting of six seasonal themes.
And we’ve been in to find out all about them.
Christmas Past
Christmas Past offers the traditional touch with classic red and gold colouring, think cosy country.
Croft
Croft has an icy woodland element to it, great for creating a winter wonderland.
Copenhagen
Copenhagen continues the popular Scandi trend with natural materials boasting a modern twist.
Vibrant Vintage
Vibrant Vintage is a new addition to the collection with bright and bold baubles that’ll lighten up any living room.
Festive Friends
Festive Friends is perfect for families, full of colour, Christmas characters and decoration.
House
The brand’s House range has also been incorporated into the collection as an extra, offering an affordable contemporary option.
Workshops
In a festive first, the Cardiff store will be running a series of workshops from November 7, where visitors can make their own wreaths, practice wrapping presents and get design tips for decorating their trees and rooms.
Christmas Wishlist
Another new feature this year is that the public can now take their pick from a selection of artificial trees in-store or purchase a real fir or pine online.
As for children’s wishlists, top of the toys and bestseller predictions include a LEGO Create VW camper van (£79.99) and a Teksta robotic puppy (£44.99) and kitty (£59.99).
So, if you’re really organised, you could have Christmas all wrapped up before we’ve even celebrated Halloween and Bonfire Night!
