This year for Christmas, we wanted to focus on all things handmade with love, because that really is the heart of the season.
The crayon Santa with four arms. The jumper with no neck hole. The pasta necklace threaded on string. That’s the good stuff. That’s the magic. It’s the quiet joy of somebody bringing you an unprompted post-snooze brew. The chaotic, wonderful energy of gifts wrapped with more love than skill. While our own wrapping may hold up to North Pole standards, we know the pride of giving something made by hand - because we do it every day.
Our fantastic in-house designer Becca dreamed up the fantastic visuals for this collection by looking at old handmade Christmas decorations which TEAm members brought in, watching a bunch of cosy Christmas films, & of course sipping on lots of our festive blends!
We have a sleigh-load of exciting activities planned to bring the magic of the season to life, starting from November 1st right through to December 24th.
Handmade Decorations Drive
This year, we're inviting our wonderful community in Rebel Brew Crew to help us create something truly special. We're calling on all our creative customers to craft a handmade decoration, the more tea-themed the better! Whether it's a tea bag garland, a gingerbread chai ornament, or a miniature teacup bauble, we want to see your unique creations! For each customer who brings a decoration in, there will be 100 stars rewarded to your account! Let's make our stores sparkle with your handmade love!
