TGF Ethical Christmas List – Day 16

Today’s TGF Ethical Christmas Gift List focus is on Ethical Christmas Decorations.

I love this gorgeous Christmas Nativity Set from Sones. The fair-trade set is just the right size for curious toddlers to pick up and play with and as it’s made from chunky MDF it’s not too fragile for little fingers! It’s perfect for introducing young children to the story of Christmas and the beautifully painted pieces are sure to capture their imaginations. It also makes a lovely decoration. At just £16, this Nativity Set is great value for money – I know my daughters would love to have one of these this Christmas!

This lovely Personalised Christmas Nativity Plaque from Samigail’s Gifts  costs £5 and has a nativity picture burned on the front by pyrography and coloured in with pencil. Using the hanging twine the plaque can be hung on the Christmas tree or just as a decoration around the home. You can also add a personalised message to the back of the plaque, making these wonderful gifts too. They would be lovely for children to give to a teacher, or as a gift for a child so that they can keep them for years to come.

The Christmas Tree for Life Pack, from tree2mydoor, contains a baby Norway Spruce sapling (approx. 20-60 cm) and a beautiful personalised Snowflake Christmas Decoration available in either gold or pewter. When it first arrives, the little Norway Spruce can be planted in a pot and kept indoors as  a Christmas decoration. It can then planted out in the garden in the New Year so that you can watch it grow. Each Christmas, pot the little tree and bring it back indoors for a wonderful living Christmas decoration. The Christmas Tree for Life Pack costs £36.98.

If you’re looking for decorations to go on the tree, then these stylish silk stars from Fairwind are perfect. The stars are handmade using Cambodian silk by polio and landmine survivors in Cambodia. They come in mixed box sets of gold and cream or red and cream, and cost £12 for a box of 6. Co-ordinating silk hearts are also available.

My final choice is another beautfiul Christmas Nativity Set and Figures, this time from More Than Gifts. The set includes a wooden stable and lots of wonderful little wooden Nativity characters just right for children to play with and act out the Christmas story. This is another set that I know my daughters would spend many happy hours playing with this Christmas! It also makes a lovely decoration. The set costs £15.99.
