Christmas is Coming!

I really can’t believe that last Christmas was nearly a whole year ago. Crazy! Is it just me or have the last twelve months literally flown by? This year, one thing is for certain - 2019 has been it for raising awareness of the massive issue that is climate change thanks to the likes of the inspiring Greta Thunberg. But climate change isn’t just about cutting carbon emissions and increasing sustainability, it’s about the bigger picture and how our society has for far too long been obsessed with consumerism. If there’s one message that has come out loud and clear, it’s that our habits have to change, like now.

So this Christmas, why not do something a bit different with your gift buying? Instead of browsing the likes of Amazon, how about visiting your local charity and vintage shops instead? We love a charity shop, and there is always something to be found in there. Of course you can add your own touches to whatever you buy too. Personalise them a bit. The message is it doesn’t have to be new and shiny, it just needs to be thoughtful. And remember, for every order we take online and in-store we plant a tree!  How's that for a double gift?
