The Christmas holidays are known for their conviviality and hustle and bustle. Are you staying at home for one or more days? Then there are plenty of activities to do at home that will prevent you from getting bored. We have listed them for you.
Pleasant gourmet dining
Gourmet again? Yes of course! The Christmas holidays are not complete without gourmet food. A table with a baking tray in the middle, surrounded by all kinds of ingredients from which everyone makes the most delicious dishes. Enjoy the delicious pieces of meat, fish, vegetables and fruit. And complete it with baguette and pancakes. That will be delicious!
Also fun: organize a chic dinner at home with your housemates. Cook the tastiest dishes, set the table beautifully and put on a chic outfit.
Have a spring clean
If you are at home and have nothing to do, wouldn’t it be smart to use it immediately? Instead of scrolling aimlessly on social media, it is also an option to thoroughly clean your house or room. Take away everything you no longer use and wipe everything with a cloth. This way you will end the year with a satisfied feeling and you will start the new year clean.
Tinker away
Get the craft supplies out of the cupboard, put on some nice music and spend an afternoon being creative. There is plenty of inspiration for crafts: all you have to do is google ‘Christmas crafts’ and you will be presented with hundreds of ideas. For example, make a beautiful flower wreath for the windowsill or a paper star for the Christmas tree. Have fun!
Enjoy a self-care day
Because of all the hustle and bustle, there is a good chance that you regularly forget your self-care. Therefore, plan an entire day for all kinds of self-care activities. Paint your nails, wash and style your hair, take a long shower or bath, read a book, do your skincare, go to the gym, take a walk and/or take a yoga class. This way you can spend your Christmas completely rested.
Have a movie marathon
The cold temperatures, romantic Christmas decorations and nice Christmas pajamas provide the ideal setting for a movie marathon. Treat yourself to a cup of hot chocolate with a tasty Christmas snack and plop down on the couch in your pajamas. Choose from the many Christmas films, such as Home Alone, Die Hard and Love Actually and enjoy this wonderful evening.
Bake the tastiest Christmas cookies
Mmm, the smell of delicious Christmas cookies throughout the house… Is your mouth watering yet? There are many recipes for delicious Christmas cookies that you are guaranteed to like. Choose one, get the ingredients and get started! Don’t forget to put on some music in the background to romanticize the baking.
Surprise loved ones with a gift
Love plays a major role during the Christmas holidays. Love for family, friends, colleagues and so on. Isn’t it a nice gesture to surprise the people you love with a gift? Not only is it a beautiful way to thank people for everything they mean to you, it is also a beautiful way to end the year well and full of love.
