santa stop here

Hello! This was my eco-wrapping table at the craft fair on Saturday.  Secondhand ribbon, rolls of sheet music, eco cards and tags, and of course the photocards in the foreground there.  As usual I have been a bit ambitious about what I can get done in time, and am already overdue for a Christmas lunch!  So thought I would post up some of my remaining eco-tags, as I thought that's the sort of last minute thing you might like.  

Each pack has 6 tags, made from magazine paper and recycled card.  The ties are reclaimed crochet cotton (very nice) and they are packaged in biodegradable cellophane bags!  They look great with plain brown paper and a coloured ribbon, or layer with your own patterned paper by colour scheme.

I'm only really going to be able to post these out now in the UK.  So if you would like some, either leave a comment with your choice (your email address comes up privately to me) or email me at [email protected] - and I will send you a Paypal email so that you can pay online... or send me a cheque.

The pictures show 2 packs side by side, and I will put the names beneath.   Please quote the name of the pack you would like.    (Also let me know if you would like any of the cards featured in the Etsy shop)

The cost in UK including postage is £2.50 per pack.

'sparkly shoes' & 'snowmen, snowballs and a robin!'

'baubles, glass & candlelight' & 'carols by candlelight'

'a regal feast' (bit King Wencleslas, I thought) & 'silver leaves'

'gorgeous gifts' & 'holiday pink & green'

'baubles, beads & leaves' & 'winter white & gold'

'christmas hearts' & 'a rustic christmas'

'cosy christmas cottage' (I'd like one of those!) & 'fireside stockings'

'hollyberry,mistletoe & twigs'  & 'holly & gingham'

I will get any orders out in the next available post - so should be good until the end of the week to receive before Chrimbo.

Judging by my 'stats' I've had a lot of advent readers who are all out there, perhaps planning a big eco wrapfest - so if you feel like delurking and saying hello - it's Christmas - I won't spam you! Promise! It would be really lovely to hear from you!  Have a nice day whatever you are doing. x

Ah, yes. Lurking, it's amazing how many people do that isn't it? It must be the wonderful ideas and inspiring creativity here that have rendered me speechless, everything is truly beautiful. Makes me want to go and buy lovely magazines just so I can cut them up! Thanks for sharing your wonderful talents.

All looks so lovely Caireen! Hope you're finding some time for yourself to unwind and relax, mince pie in hand...

Ok, de-lurking here to say hello, and Merry Christmas! :-) I have been reading your blog for a while and I must say I have loved the last couple of weeks as you show different, creative, and beautiful ways to recycle paper products and save a bit on wrapping stuff. It definitely has brought to mind ways I could save on wrapping, too.

Hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas! :-)

P.S. I also really enjoy seeing the pictures you post of the scenery around where you live in Scotland. Makes me want to visit there someday soon.

The tags all look gorgeous, I'm sure they must take you hours to make.

I'm just a new reader, but thought I would leave a comment, seeing as you asked so nicely!
I often look at the stats for my blog and wonder why people read and never leave a comment - but apparently I do the same thing!
Your blog is lovely and has given me lots of Christmasy ideas!
By the way, I found you through Tiny Happy.
