Bring light to the subject
There are many ways to illuminate a home fireplace and add extra visual interest to it. One of our favourite fireplace decorating ideas is to showcase a few elegant lanterns along your mantel for extra charm and sophistication. Options like our Stag Head Hurricane Lantern offer a robust design and a regal appearance, while providing you with a safe way to burn candles in your living room to set the mood.
Another more contemporary but equally stylish option is our Lumen Round Mirror. It’s framed with geometric mirror shards that will reflect the warm light from your crackling fire and create a uniquely unforgettable visual effect. Install it above your mantel for the most breath-taking effect.
For fireplace Christmas décor ideas, explore our range of Christmas candles, candle holders and diffusers. Not only do our Christmas home fragrances smell great, but candles also make the perfect centrepiece for your fireplace or mantle piece.
Elevate the space with art
One of the most classic fireplace décor ideas around is to use art and fine prints to draw the eye towards your fireplace. Our favourite pick for a contemporary British home is our Blue Marble Panel Set of prints, which boasts a strikingly elegant look that will infuse your living room with colour and perfectly contrast the warm tones of the flames.
We offer a wide selection of other pictures and prints to suit your personal tastes.
