For many, decorating the Christmas tree is a highlight of the festive season; an activity to be enjoyed on a cosy Sunday at home, accompanied by a glass of mulled wine and a playlist of carols. For others,though, it's a looming chore in an already over-scheduled calendar. Whatever your perspective on this most enduring of traditions, John Lewis has launched a new range of services designed to either enhance or ease the task at hand.
If you fall into the latter category, the department store's "Full festive works" service will fill you with Christmas cheer. After an in-store style-advice appointment or an at-home consultation, a specialist stylist will deliver your chosen tree and decorations and spend two hours making sure it is perfectly positioned and adorned.
