Christmas is the most magical time of year, especially so when seeing the excitement build through the eyes of a child. As adults we can feel overwhelmed with trying to create the picture perfect Christmas, thoughtful presents, stylish decorations and a family feast all come at a cost, to both our wallets and the environment.
After a less than ordinary year maybe it’s time to break with some of those Christmas habits that aren’t serving us or the planet. With more time spent indoors, this year is a great time to think about kicking off the season in sustainable style.
