Christmas down under is a summer affair. But why not pretend (for just one day) we’re sipping eggnog in a European village surrounded by twinkling lights and snow and celebrate a cosy Christmas in July? To bring this merrymaking to life, CW collaborated with Fyshwick vintage store, Dirty Janes, to create a holly, jolly Christmas in July dinner extravaganza. With the traditional staples of green and red and an added a pop of teal, a touch of sparkle, and stylish festive decorations, we’ve turned the vibe into the winter wonderland your holiday-loving heart desires.
The table setting helps to elevate your Christmas celebration – the dining room is where your friends and family will gather for most of the festivities, where the food is presented, and where the meal is shared. While the children’s table can be less sophisticated, adorn the adults’ table with stunning garlands, fine silverware and ornamental trimmings for maximum impact.
After everyone has finished devouring lunch or dinner, a warm cup of tea is imperative for a Christmas in July celebration, and there’s nothing cuter than this vintage Christmas tree tea cosy!
