Ideal Home Show at Christmas 2014, Earl's Court
Panicking about the festive season? Visit the Ideal Home Show at Christmas 2014 to find a little inspiration
Back with a festive bang, the Ideal Home Show at Christmas 2014 boasts 650 exhibitors over 7 sections that range from decorations, gifts, food and drink to fashion and beauty. While this trip to Earl's Court can be quite overwhelming to the casual Christmas shopper; for those tricky gifts or yuletide inspiration, it is tremendously useful.
The classic Christmas fair hand-crafted decorations and gifts are to be found in the Interiors & Home Accessories section, as well as some interesting demonstrations from celebrities such as Lawrence Llewelyn-Bowen. You might also enjoy the artisan cheeses, fine wines and hand-made chocolates in Food & Drink.
Appearances from reality TV stars such as Made in Chelsea’s Millie Mackintosh detract slightly from the quality of the design products on offer, but what would Christmas be without some celebrity-endorsed gifts?
If shopping becomes too much, there is always the Champagne bar and live entertainment at the bandstand to entertain. And the real jewel in the crown, the ice skating rink: a perfect place to distract family members after a day of buying festive fodder.
Not the most relaxing version of Christmas shopping - but a great idea for those that want all their Christmas shopping done in one place.
