Here at Tenovus Cancer Care we have launched Create Your Own Christmas / Creu Eich Nadolig, celebrating affordable, sustainable, and meaningful shopping - both in-store and online. We have made some social posts showing the public how unique treasures, vintage finds, and crafting materials can go to make Christmas affordable and sustainable.
We have some fabulous ideas this Christmas on how to make personalised presents. Watch our tutorials here and do share:
Celyn Harvey, our Digital Content Producer, explains how the filming came together.
“The whole idea behind the videos was to show how easy it is to build thoughtful Christmas gifts using a mix of products from our online shop, simple things you can make, bits you can pick up in a charity shop, and any little extras you might already have at home - all without spending a fortune!
"In the run-up to the shoot I was on a mission to hunt down the perfect ‘gifts’. The week consisted of scrolling through our online shop and getting the team to raid their cupboards at home to pull together everything from hot chocolate sachets to nail polish. I even spent some time making some clay seed markers out of air-dry clay for the gardening letterbox gift.
"On the day, we turned a corner of the office into a mini production set. We built everything from scratch starting with our brand-new wooden backdrop, then layering in a garland and fairy lights already found in the storage cupboard gives it that rustic, cosy Christmas glow."
