💫🌲How to have a GREENER Christmas this year. 🌲💫
With the festive period just around the corner, I wanted to share some of my plastic free, sustainable tips to help you have an eco-friendly Christmas.
🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲

It is no surprise then that plastic features heavily in the average festive household. Last year Britain binned more than 100 million bin bags of plastic packaging from gifts and toys at Christmas. Let’s change that!! .
1. Shop local and in-season for your grocery shopping. Pop into the local farm shops and bakeries to stock up on low-carbon, unpackaged produce. (Remember to take your produce bags)
2. Say no to plastic wrapping paper and plastic ribbons -Choose recycled wrapping paper or reuse your own newspaper and magazines. We stock beautiful Christmas prints made from recycled paper and made using vegetable inks. Another favourite of mine is fabric wrapping.
3. Ditch one-use plastic straws for reusable stainless- steel straws or bamboo straws. We have a fantastic range for you to choose from. (They also makes a great gift!)
4. If you have a plastic tree re use re use re use! Or choose a real Christmas tree. For full eco credentials this should be a living tree – a small one you can keep in the garden all year round.
5. Use natural decorations. Sprigs of holly and other green foliage combined with pine cones and dried oranges.
6. Say NO to plastic cling film and cover leftover food in wax wraps.
7. Give your loved one a homemade gift this year or help someone on their plastic free journey and choose from our range of eco-friendly gift sets.
8. Cook from scratch and reduce the packaged food you buy. This isn’t always so easy as we can we busy around Christmas. Why not try to prep beforehand and freeze what you can.
9. If you are having a party, loan your glassware and plates rather than buying disposable ones. You can do this at many supermarkets including M&S, just remember to book well in advance.
10. Choose eco friendly beauty gifts this year. We have a wonderful range of plastic free and natural soaps, shampoo bars, deodorants, make up and much more for you to choose from. .
How will go be more sustainable this Christmas?
