The drop in temperature has reminded us that autumn is in full swing, and that winter is on its way. The arrival of the season implies the usual changes; cracking out our cosy jumpers, woolly scarves, and delicious hot chocolates. Yum. Winter also means that it's nearly our favourite time of year (or the best time of year) - Christmas.
That's right, Christmas is fast approaching and with it comes all the fun and joy of decorating. And after having an essentially cancelled Christmas last year, we've decided to really go all out this year.
Aside from the usual ornaments, candles, and wreaths, a brilliant way to create a true Christmas wonderland is by adding in some Christmas plant pots to your indoor jungle.
Whether you prefer to personalise them and paint them yourself or you're happy to buy a few online, they add a beautiful, cosy touch to your home. They can also make a brilliant centrepiece or a wonderful gift for a loved one, friend or relative.
Another bonus of buying Christmas plant pots is that you can make any plant in your home look festive. Although, if you did want to go OTT, this gorgeous Poinsettia would be really cute...
