Just in case you missed the memo, we’re a little Christmas obsessed over here at The Home Studio. It’s all the feels that come along with decorating your home and what the festive season means… upcoming holidays, summer fun and time spent with friends and family.
While we have our ‘base’ decor pieces, we also like to mix up our holiday decor each year. If you feel the same, or are at a loss on where to start, we’ve pulled together inspiration for our three favourite holiday decor themes – all ideally suited to Christmas in the sun – as well as a guide on how you can Get The Look at home.
Let the decor festivities begin!
1. All White
Nothing says classic decor like an all white theme, which works beautifully in any setting. Think lots of fairy lights, white candles and plenty of lush greenery. If you’re looking to up the glam factor, bring in just a few sparkling silver and gold accents.

2. Boho
Boho is our favourite style for casual, outdoor Christmas vibes. Using a beige and white palette and plenty of natural linens, bring in dried grasses for a sophisticated take on the boho style.

3. Colourful
Nothing pops in the South African summer quite like some colour. Whether you stick to traditional red, green and gold, or create your own palette, we suggest using a selection of about 5 colours on repeat. This helps carry the theme through for a cohesive overall style.
