Fairy lights: decorating in style

Sparkling, shiny fairy lights arrangements are so wonderfully quickly designed and always a hit throughout the Advent season. What's more, they create the right Christmas mood very quickly. So feel free to play around!

The Christmas season is here! With fairy lights in the room or on your table, everything becomes even more magical.

Christmas fairy lights

When simply light is no longer enough, fairy lights will help. Mini fairy lights make glass domes shine elegantly. Arrange them so that they resemble a starry sky.

Bring the night sky into your home. 

Just start by spraying a blank fabric canvas with glue, and sprinkle it with as much or as little glitter as you please. Then arrange and fasten your light chain on the back of the canvas frame. Enjoy the stars!

A bit tired of traditional Christmas trees?

Go abstract and create a new wave version with lights. Just arrange the nails, hang the lights, and you’re set. By the way, this works great for any type of design you might prefer.

Lights on, dinner is ready!

With a string of lights around an unused ladder, you can conjure up a Christmas eye-catcher in no time at all. Whether it's this way, tucked into a bowl, or spread out on a festive table: IKEA fairy lights can be used for almost everything and spread well-being and warmth at every turn.
