This year, the brand has said that Candycane and Gingerbread themes are dominating the market whilst oversized decorations are also becoming big hitters.
Heather Robbins, Hobbycraft’s Trading Director commented: “The luxurious thing about Hobbycraft is that you can invest in blank decorations that can be decorated in any colour or theme you want. Whatever your style – whether you prefer a traditional green and red look or a pop of colour, there are so many ideas for ways to jump on any trend. This year, Christmas 2024 is leaning heavily into the whimsical and nostalgic. The candy cane and gingerbread theme is dominating, with oversized decorations like giant nutcrackers and gingerbread cottages stealing the show. These designs bring a playful yet elegant vibe to holiday decor. Pastel and neon hues are emerging alongside traditional colours, complementing the light-heartedness of these motifs and adding a fresh twist to festive aesthetics.”
