Sykes Cottages have put together this festive guide to give you plenty of ideas when creating your Christmas Eve boxes this year! What’s more, the team have also put together a wonderful prize up for grabs as well! You could be the lucky winner of a Christmas Eve box worth over £300, sent to your home in time for the festivities to start!

Sykes have chosen to work with small businesses and brands that focus on giving back a positive impact on our planet! These include vegan products, responsibly sourced items, companies that aim to reduce plastics, as well as made-to-last gifts and festive treats, bringing lots of cheer to your Christmas Eve this December.

Green and Wilds is one of the brands featured in the prize hamper, who offer a selection of not only natural but delicious treats for dogs and cats, so that your furry companions can join in on the evening too! Tasty hot chocolates are included from Gnaw and Good Things Gifts have the entertainment sorted with their Sproutword Game. A Christmas Eve box wouldn’t be complete without some self-care either, so Sykes are also working with the likes of Life Before Plastik and My Little Eco Shop to bring an array of festive scents and relaxation to the evening.

Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without a toy or two for the little ones so they’ve also included a couple of toys from Weasel and the Bug’s Maileg range as well as a bottle or two of wine for the adults to enjoy. The Social Supermarket play host to some wonderful brands that have a great environmental impact on our planet; Sea Change being just one of them. They combine a love of great wine with a desire to help protect our oceans, and Sykes have chosen the Malbec and Sauvignon Blanc to go in the Christmas Eve box.

To make the prize even more special, the gifts will come in a Christmas Eve crate from No Ordinary Gift, which will be personalised for the winner.
