Terrific traditionalist

You're a big fan of Christmas and nothing is too festive for you. You're more likely to opt for an old-fashioned real tree, adorned with as many decorations as you can hang on it and lights that put the Blackpool Illuminations to shame, but it's all done in a very classy way.

The tree is the main focal point in your home at Christmas, but you're also keen to spread joy throughout the rest of the house. There's a wreath on the front door, a fir garland trained up the stairway, holly on the table and all the trimmings come Christmas dinner.

Magical modernist

You're happy to put a few decorations up at Christmas time, but you certainly don't want it to mess up your minimalist home. You're a fan of clean lines with everything in its place and prefer a few funky touches to a sea of red and green.

The presents and the people are the main focus on December 25, not a collection of plastic reindeer, harmonising to Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree.

Festive fashionista

Decorating the home at Christmas is a necessity for you, but it often ends up being a bit last minute, as you need to find the time to buy the season's most on-trend items.

You're not the sort of person to drag all the boxes down from the loft and pop up the same decorations every year. Home accessories are really important to you and just because it's Christmas, doesn't mean style has to go out the window. You follow the advice and tips from big buyers on the high street and always invest in new pieces every year.

Classy and colourful

When it comes to Christmas decorations, you tend to lean towards a traditional look, but colour is of huge importance to you. Generally, you're keen to pick a scheme every year and then buy items to suit, incorporating both old and new.

Red and green is an obvious classic, but purple, silver and turquoise combos have proved popular over recent years, and even the monochromatic look has found its fans.

Colour co-ordinating is a foolproof way to ensure your decorations look classy, particularly when it comes to the tree and Christmas table.

Vintage chic

There's nothing more important to you than making your home feel homely. When it comes to Christmas, the decorations need to fit in with the rest of the scheme.

Warm lights and vintage touches work well, as do wickerwork, wooden or raffia tree hangings and homely wreaths.

Your parcels are always beautifully wrapped with ribbon. You spread Christmas cheer over mulled wine and cinnamon-scented candles.
