Making crafts, whether with kids or with friends, can be really bonding, where stories are shared, jokes are had and time slows down. The crafts don’t have to be perfect, you’re making something individual!
This Christmas, PaperSam has a wide range of eco-friendly festive crafting kits you can put together at home to give your seasonal decorations a hand-made, and environmentally friendly touch.
Not only will you and your family have the satisfaction of knowing your Christmas ornaments were made by your own fair hand, you’ll also have the warm glow that comes from the knowledge they haven’t been shipped half way round the world, and that deserves raising a festive glass by itself!

About PaperSam
Sam Duffy, aka PaperSam, has worked as a still life stylist and prop maker for over twenty years, working in London and New York on photographic shoots and press days for some of the leading retailers and magazines. In 2020, amidst a pandemic, she relocated from London to the Cotswolds and is embracing a slower lifestyle that fits well with the organic ethos of PaperSam.
Duffy says of the Christmas season: “The journey to the festive season is the best bit for me. Time spent crafting, decorating, while listening to festive tunes seems to make good use of those dull days and dark evenings.”
