OUR HOME AND CONSUMER EXPERT AGGIE MACKENZIE SHARES HER TOP P HOUSEHOLD TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS EACH WEEK

■ This Christmas, why not make your flower display mean something by ordering a beautiful Fairtrade bouquet sourced from Kenyan farmers who work tirelessly to grow sustainably and improve the lives of their employees? Visit ARENAFLOWERS.COM for prices and types of bouquet. ■ Treat your cat-loving friend or family member (there’s always one!) to a cute Christmas Cat Garland with 10 cats on the 9in string and each cat is 8in long. £6.99 from MUSEUMSELECTION.CO.UK

■ If you fancy new lights for your Christmas tree, it’s a good idea to go for LED lights. They give out the same amount of light, but are more energy efficient and have a longer life… also they’re more fireresistant than standard bulbs.
