Eco friendly tinsel - hand made in the UK

A Thoughtful Alternative

Instead of plastic, these garlands are hand made from 100% recycled paper.

Colour, colour, Colour

Lots of options are available, to suit your Christmas theme, from classic red & green through to summery combinations of red & white and blue & white.

Conventional tinsel is generally made with plastic that is not easily recyclable. When it gets tattered and torn, it’s mostly off to the bin and landfill.

But there are more eco thoughtful alternatives available, and one which jumps out for its sheer good looks, as well as eco-credentials, is Ecotinsel. It’s made from 100% recycled (and recyclable) paper.

Hand made in Wales, UK, the garlands are available in a large range of colours - both single and two-tone. Each garland is 180cm long, and thickly fluffy thanks to dense weaving of 8 cm wide strips of paper.

We are big supporters of made-to-order items here at FKQ, so it is nice to know that Ecotinsel is exactly that.

That also means that they can custom make orders of particular colours.

Ecotinsel is plastic-free, PVC-free and a charming solution to the plastic wastage of conventional Christmas decorations.

At the age of 11, she wrote a passionate English essay about the practice of animal testing in the cosmetics industry, as part of a school assignment - and as an adult, has strived to encourage her 3 children to become compassionate, thinking young adults who care for both others around them and the world in which they live.

Virginia has been vegan for more than 2 years, after attending a talk by Phillip Wollen (OAM) when all the lightbulbs suddenly went on! Here was a way to live that touched the earth more lightly, didn't involve harm to animals, and opened the door to a much more healthy lifestyle.
