If you wrap an expensive gift in single use wrapping paper, are you wrapping it in trash?
50,000 additional tonnes of landfill waste is created by New Zealanders in just the 7 days after Christmas... every. year.
That’s enough to fill 14,286 shipping containers… if stacked they would reach 105 times the height of NZ's Sky Tower. It's time to sustainably update our cherished family traditions ensuring they continue to thrive.
You can get our gorgeous reusable gift bags for just $8 each, and reuse them year after year, back and forth. It's fun.
Welcome to joyous, environmentally guilt-free, celebrations.

Hello! Curious?
I have always gone ‘slightly’ overboard Christmas. Too much food, too many costumes, drowning in decorations and spending waaay too much money on things that don’t last – or if they do last it’s because they’re plastic and will outlast me and another 20 generations.
I was sick of the waste, sick of wrapping presents for hours and hours on Christmas eve, fighting with the sellotape and searching the house for a pair of scissors.
I embarked on a journey to craft reusable bags, realistic Christmas crackers and even fabric tissue paper.
Now, everything is wrapped in half an hour! Then on Christmas morning the kids easily stuff everything back into the biggest gift bag.
I thought I was onto something great when family and friends requested their own. After thousands of happy customers, tens of thousands of crackers and hundreds of thousands of gift bags, I am sure.

From crackers to wrapping paper, why is it that Christmas always gives the gift of waste?

Reusable Gift Bags
Say good-bye to wrapping paper and sticky tape; stop ransacking the house for a pair of scissors at 11pm on Christmas Eve. With our reusable Christmas gift bags you will wrap that 7-sided dollhouse on wheels in four seconds flat and make clean-up on Christmas morning a breeze. Once you've switched to bags you will never go back to paper!
Our bags are pro-planet, 100% cotton and look beautiful under the tree. Best of all, they will last generations and create your own family tradition as they get handed down the generations.
Our mission is to take the waste out of the most excessive time of the year: no more wrapping paper, ribbons, sticky tape, gift tags, or tissue going to the bins.
Combined with our reusable Christmas crackers, we can remove most single-use waste from December 25.
Now our reusable Christmas crackers are award winning :)
We are so proud of our Christmas re-crackers! Which won both a gold medal and the editor's choice award at the Australian Clean & Conscious Awards.
There is no need to celebrate with disposable trash. Give joy, not waste.
Keep all the fun and tradition of Christmas without adding to the literal mountain of waste.
