Like to make do and mend? Hate throwing away perfectly good materials? We have just the book for you! The sustainable makes in Zero Waste Christmas are split into four distinct categories, allowing you to experiment with different approaches to Christmas décor. On the one hand, we have the minimalist chic of the Skandi section, and on the other we have the eye-popping exuberance of the Hot designs inspired by warmer countries. Dont let the low-key cover fool you, there is plenty of colour and fun to be found inside.
