Left over scraps of wrapping paper or sheets left over from previous years - what do you do with them? While many festive wrapping papers are now fully or partly recyclable, it’s even better for the environment if these can be reused before being recycled.

With non-essential shops having been locked-down throughout November, the December Christmas rush has been busier than ever so we were in danger of feeling a little overwhelmed. Fortunately this week we got some unexpected help packing up online orders from the Chancellor himself Rishi Sunak! On Small Business Saturday we just want to say a massive thank you to everyone who has shopped with us in person or via the website this year. Your support has meant we've been able to keep going as a business and end this year feeling optimistic about what 2021 will bring.  

We've been so excited to bring you Emma Bridgewater greetings cards this year, and we couldn't help but show off the beautiful range of Emma Bridgewater Christmas cards we've just received. Decorated with Christmas trees, stars and fairisle in Emma's iconic sponge prints and serif fonts each of these Christmas cards will bring a cosy, nostalgic touch to Christmas. From packs of Christmas cards benefiting wonderful charities, to exquisite Christmas cards for relations and friends, the whole range conveys thoughtful and loving Christmas wishes.    

Lockdown is here so while the shop is closed for in-person shopping our website remains open. This lockdown came as a bit of a surprise so we're in the process of trying to make all our Christmas gifts, wrap and decorations available via the website so please bear with us. We do have some customers who prefer to pay over the phone, so if you see something you like feel free to email us at info@nickerynookbedale.co.uk or ring 01677 425848. Someone should be available by phone between 9-1pm most days. We had so many lovely comments from customers over this...
