Navidad – Amadriadi

Hello friends!

Today I will share Christmas ideas, but this time it is not the eccentric American commercialism but the simplicity as from Scandinavia to the countries of Europe comes this ancient tradition and closely linked to nature, animals and the universe.

Remember Christmas is not a party for those who spend more, but for those who spread love and harmony in their homes to receive Christmas!

DECOR & CRAFTS

A Scandinavian Christmas is all about embracing nature in your Christmas décor. Decorations are simply crafted and created from pared back natural materials such as wood and paper with a simple colour palette of red and white.

RECIPES

These lunches will usually consist of a smörgåsbord of bread and fish along with generous amounts of beers, spirits and wine followed by singing and toasts. The big Christmas dinner, meanwhile, is traditionally held on the 24th and involves a sumptuous feast of pork, red cabbage, potatoes and gravy.

TRADITIONS

On Christmas morning, Danish cupcakes called ableskiver are traditionally served. For Christmas Day lunch, cold cuts and different types of fish usually make up the meal. On Christmas night, families gather around Christmas tree, exchange presents, and sing carols.

Scandinavian Christmas Ideas

Scandinavian Christmas decorations are taken seriously across the region. While each country has slight variations in how they approach the decor, there’s an overall focus on natural elements like wood, flowers, and greenery, as well as a lot of the classic colors such as red, green, gold, and silver.
White shiplap walls, slubby bedding and a simple string of fairy lights – the beginner’s pack to creating a festive Scandi bedroom. Add in a touch of greenery for contrast and you are done. Simple.
