Coastal Kiwi Christmas

A summer Christmas calls for a lighter touch. This edit pairs the Norfolk pine so familiar along our coastline with cream podberry, white berries and paper decorations, a woven rattan angel and white enamel bells. Shell bowls, eucalyptus and simple pieces for the table round it out. It suits the bach, a sunny deck and a long lunch table, and sits easily alongside the linen, timber and rattan you already live with. For styling ideas, read A Coastal Kiwi Christmas Table.
