Everyone has different styles when it comes to decorating the house for Christmas; some of us have our go-to decorations while others like to mix it up with different themes or something new each year. Homebase would like to know what you'd pick from their range to refresh your collection of decorations and have on display in your home (budget no issue smile).

Here’s what Homebase has to say: “At Homebase we have everything you need to make your Christmas sparkle, from trees and baubles, to giant inflatables and twinkly lights. Click here to check out our Christmas range and please share your favourite decorations below.”

How about this snowy tree? Or a Poinsettia Wreath for your door? Or even some cute Santa fairy lights?

To get you in the mood, here's some tips on decorating your tree:


Have a look at the site and share what would make it into your basket this year! Everyone who posts on the thread will be entered into a prize draw to win a £300 voucher of their choice (from a list).

Thanks and good luck!

One of these really long strings of white lights would brighten up my conservatory beautifully.

Christmas tree lights to replace my several existing sets would be lovely. I've got about 4 sets of lights; all too short and in different shades of white. One good long set that would cover the whole tree would be great.

Definitely the inflatable 8' Santa ? ??

The 6.5 ft pre lit Frasier Christmas tree. I think it’s time I got one of these as I only keep a tree for the few days the family visit and I could bring this out every year.

I have been decorating Christmas trees for years . I can't quite see that I need any more decorations for a while. I have bought a lot of new decorations in recent years. No black Christmas trees for me. Has that fad gone yet?

Forest fruits twig wreath here too, please

I love the Forest Fruits Twig Wreath which is so welcoming and would add a festive touch to our front door. Good luck everyone!

Masses of poinsettia and other plants plus some lovely scented hyacinths which can be decorated with mini lights to create a seasonal theme.

mbody Fri 24-Nov-17 14:25:01

Sorry, also the lit reindeers for the garden

I'd love the Polar Bear, Penguin and Santa glass baubles to adorn a new tree. My grandsons would love it and it would be a big improvement on the plain ones we have now.

I really would love the Singing Stag Head. It suits my sense of humour!

PoshGran Fri 24-Nov-17 18:51:52

I think the Father Christmas & the Snowman would look very fine dangling their extendable legs each side of the mantlepiece.

I would love to get some smart glass decorations now that the kids have grown up. I'd also love to get some Holly.

Jalima1108 Fri 24-Nov-17 19:57:30

The LED rattan reindeer - love him/her!

Synonymous Fri 24-Nov-17 21:33:12

Nothing whatsoever for me! Don't need it now and never will since everything we have has many memories and since it ain't broke and we won't be fixing it we will be keeping our cash in our pockets. grin

I'd love the singing reindeer and the heart shaped wreath. If I had a tree in the garden I would cover it in blue fairy lights - lots of them! ???

MSHGW Sat 25-Nov-17 01:58:30

I'd choose the 24 Inch Snow Tipped Berry and Pinecone Wreath for our front door.

prwilson Sat 25-Nov-17 02:00:06

I like the 24 Inch Green Mixed Tip Wreath - understated, yet stylish.

andywedge Sat 25-Nov-17 02:09:12

Love the Dark Blue Glass Star Bauble; it's a bit different

thingamaBob Sat 25-Nov-17 03:48:01

I would like the 100 Multi Colour String LED Christmas Lights to replace my old and tired purple single colour set.

pinkjj27 Sat 25-Nov-17 04:00:49

I was in there with my daughter last week I love the 8ft Green Arc Artificial Christmas Tree and i saw a light up wreath. My daughter brought some stags and my gran-daughter age 2 wanted a large penguin and an inflatable Santa

alabaster Sat 25-Nov-17 06:23:09

300 Warm White String LED Christmas Lights - gorgeous!

Lynne810 Sat 25-Nov-17 07:03:27

I have been looking for a really nice tree and I would love the 6.5 Green Frasier Pre-Lit Artificial Christmas Tree.

Nansypansy Sat 25-Nov-17 07:07:27

I like the silver tipped wreath ..... it’s nice and Christmassy and makes up for the fact that we rarely get snow in Torquay.

jacknutter Sat 25-Nov-17 07:30:28

I would pick the Giant Bristle Stag With Scarf
