We always love our annual outing to Schilliger, but this year felt extra special. The theme for 2024, La Fabrique du Père Noël (Father Christmas’ Workshop), transformed the space into a festive wonderland bursting with charm. From Father Christmas himself to his industrious elves, every corner is a delight to explore.
I don’t want to spoil too much—you really need to see it for yourself—but the display beautifully captures the magic of a traditional Christmas. Imagine dazzling Christmas trees, inspiring decoration ideas, and tables set with enviable tableware. The attention to detail is incredible, from the twinkling lights to the carefully curated ornaments that add a touch of magic to every display.
