Bosch and Philips were among the big name sponsors of the first-ever Ideal Home Show at Christmas, which kicked off at London's Earls Court on Wednesday.
Celebrity chefs Gino D'Acampo and Gizzy Erskine joined interiors guru Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen to launch the show, which has brought together more than 500 exhibitors and promises to offer consumers "everything you'll need to make your home ideal for Christmas".

Home improvements and garden products featured strongly at the show, which also had furniture, festive food, gifts and gadgets on display.

Bosch sponsored the 'How to Theatre', where Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen's demonstrated how to spruce up old decorations, while Philips was responsible for lighting up the show's giant indoor Christmas tree - towering over the venue at a massive 50ft.
