As October comes to an end, we can’t help but daydream about Christmas. The holiday season brings such joy and merriment to our lives, mainly because we get to spend so much more time with our families.
Something as simple as watching a Christmas movie with the family can warm your heart and that’s why we want to make sure that our home is in tip top shape before Christmas arrives.
We always want our house to look well but one thing we pay little attention to is the flooring, however, this is what can make a huge difference.
If you fancy transforming your home this winter then why not consider altering the floor? It’s one thing that’ll give your living room a completely different look.
If you are hoping to achieve an elegant, high-end look in your living room, then a velvet carpet would be the perfect choice. The rich textures that come with velvets can give any space a luxurious finish. If you’re looking to have a room that exudes sophistication, there are some gorgeous choices in velvets available in TC Matthews.
The best thing about velvet carpet is just how hard wearing it is so fear not if you’ve got a house full of kiddos on Christmas Day.
One of the most wonderful things about the winter evenings is snuggling up by the fire and spending quality time with the family. We decorate our living room with candles and fairy lights to enhance the cosy vibes but changing the carpet is the perfect way to ensure the living room feels super homely.
A twist carpet will be perfect for you. They won't shade as much as a velvet carpet, but still have a lot of the same qualities that velvets give. They are hard wearing while remaining soft underfoot. TC Matthews' most popular in twist carpets are the Oakham and Avignon ranges. They are available in an array of colours and are a very practical choice in a busy sitting room.
If you like your living room to be filled with family and friends, then these twists would be the right choice to give that cosy, homely feel.
For those of you who want to follow the trend this Christmas then why not opt for a patterned carpet? If you’ve got older children in your family then treat yourself to a living room makeover before they come home for Christmas. The new look will give the room a breath of fresh air and the kids won’t want to leave when the holidays are over.
Why not try the Verona Charcoal carpet? It uses contrasting shades of grey to make up interlocking shapes that create a pattern. Grey is a hugely popular choice in carpet colour as it goes with practically any other colour, giving you free reign with the rest of your décor. These woven axminster carpets provide both style and value.
If you want to feel festive all year round (we certainly do) then how about a red carpet? If you prefer a more traditional theme in your living room, there are pattern carpets that will give your home that stately look. The red Pindots are a beautiful woven axminster carpet that can give that luxurious, soft look and feel.
We’ll be having plenty of gatherings at our home this Christmas, especially once our living room makeover is complete.
TC Matthews have eleven stores in Leinster and over 100 years experience in providing quality flooring to Irish homes and businesses.
