Want to send something re-usable this Christmas?

Alana Smith • November 28, 2018

Our environmentally friendly Christmas angels and reindeer could be just the thing!

We are going to a reuse and recycle event tonight and it does make you think about the environmental implications of everything you use. Hair dye, plastic gloves and food packaging are all getting me thinking about how I can reduce our single use plastic further. And of course there is the dreaded Christmas list - everything our girls want comes with a cardboard box full of plastic!

If you are looking at David Attenborough and the save the planet messages, and if you are thinking about all those Christmas cards that get thrown away every year we might be able to help. At Celestial Heart we have a selection of sets of wooden Christmas angels, reindeer and decorations that can be reused every year and can be recycled or will biodegrade when their time is done!

All of the sets shown can be sent large letter, so the postage is reasonable. and I enclose a Celestial Heart card, which has a little angel charm tied to it (with biodegradeable string). I am very happy to add a message to the back of the card, which is blank - just email or message me on facebook. I will send you a picture before posting so you can see it first.

I am trying to source as many environmentally friendly products as I can this year, and hope to make more of our own next year, so I know where the materials come from AND they do not need to be sent to me in PLASTIC!!!

It is fantastic that we are all trying so much harder, but .......

Hope is the beacon that shines in the darkness to draw us forward out of the darkness. I truly have hope and allow myself the belief that we really are coming out of the covid darkness and the light and joy of things we do together is really going to happen this year. How incredible that this is something to treasure - I know I took it for granted up to the first lockdown, just over a year ago. May our angels wrap their wings around us - and send extra angels to all those who have lost loved ones during this unprecedented time. At least we were able to all be with my Dad when he battled cancer,. So, we have our first confirmed booking for our stall, at the RHS Rosemoor fayre in November here in Torridge, Devon. I have taken the chance of spending some money on new stock, and on materials to make some new lines ourselves too. I hope and pray we get to share them with you in person, as well as online, this year. I hope we all get to share our positive energy with each other too, bringing light and love where it is needed, reducing the density of negative energy which can bring us down so much. I look at this photo and it brings a smile to my face and warms my heart. We had such fun that day. We felt and we shared joy and laughter. Braunton may have wished we did not sing quite so loud though! Lots of love, Alana at Celestial Heart

I love Christmas. It does not matter what is or has been going on in my life, putting up my tree, sitting with all the twinkling lights on and finding little gifts that make people smile or even cry always cheers me up and puts something warm back in my heart. This year is going to be extra challenging, and not just financially for so many of us. Up to now, I am not sure that we will be taking our stall to any Christmas markets this year. We are waiting to hear from the last organiser about Braunton and Bideford. I would rather be safe, but having also those lovely local traders and crafters on hand has always been a great source of those little gifts for me and I like supporting the smaller businesses. So I am thinking about less money and more time and effort for this year. Personalised angels and food is my recipe for a bit of extra magic! I have been painting little wooden angels white this weekend, and I am thinking that I can paint a name or a meaningful word on the back, make them special to the person I am giving them to . They fit nicely over the neck of a bottle too. I have really struggled to find angel statues that I like that are not hugely overpriced, so I am going to order some clay and have a go at making my own. I also have found some lovely recipes for candied nuts and for cakes and sweets, which I can wrap and finish with a little angel or tree of life. All this seems so small when the real challenge is going to be if we cannot see our family or even worse if any of us are ill. I cannot imagine how it must feel to not be able to visit loved ones in hospital, or to be totally alone in such scary circumstances. I ask Archangel Michael to protect us all and to give us the strength and courage to face the challenges sent our way this Christmas. I also ask Archangel Raphael to heal those unwell, and to let them feel his comforting and healing presence. with lots of love and pure white light, Alana.xxx
