Be kind to the planet this Christmas with eco-friendly decorations
Eco-friendly Christmas decorations are worth thinking about when planning a festive event, as we all try harder to be more sustainable in 2022! At Party Packs, we’re proud to offer a great range of planet friendly decorations and party supplies to help you lessen your impact on the environment this Christmas.
With our exclusive Christmas decorations, we’ve done our best to make an eco-conscious Christmas a whole lot easier to achieve, so that you can go greener with your party supplies! For an eco-Christmas, the main thing to consider is materials. Paper and wooden decorations mostly provide a more eco-friendly option to plastics and single-use décor. Think rustic wood and hessian material décor for a natural, Nordic inspired look. You can add some Christmas sparkle and shine with a sprinkling of biodegradable glitter.
At Party Packs, our endless range of paper banners, posters, bunting and table flags are all made in house using responsibly sourced and fully recyclable FSC certified materials. We have an abundance of wonderful Christmas designs to choose from. Explore banners, posters and bunting decorated with frosty snowflakes, friendly reindeer, gold stars, winter trees, and an array of Christmas illustrations. When browsing our Christmas Banners & Posters collection, keep your eyes peeled for products that feature the blue ‘exclusive’ sticker… not only are these eco-conscious decorations made in-house a whole lot kinder to the planet than their plastic alternatives, they can be personalised with your very own Christmas message too!
As well as paper decorations, at Party Packs we stock a top range of Christmas fabric drapes and bunting. Discover cute lengths of vintage style triangle pennant bunting in Christmas patterns, colours and prints – from red tartan to holly and twinkling gold stars. These material decorations make fabulous planet-friendly party supplies – and they’ll last you year after year. When your Christmas party is over you can cut them up and use them for Christmas crafts and activities or as an eco-friendly alternative to wrapping paper for your gifts and presents.
Christmas crackers are a staple for any festive event, and lets face it – Christmas dinner just wouldn’t be the same without them! Luckily, if you’re feeling eco-conscious, there’s no need to pass on them this year as we’ve got fantastic sustainable versions to suit your celebration. Our eco-friendly Christmas crackers come in two wonderfully festive designs – choose between a rustic Kraft Holly crackers or a snowy Winter’s Tale. These innovative crackers contain no harmful chemicals and the contents inside are plastic free and FSC certified.
Next, let’s talk lights. We all know just how much electricity bills have risen over the last year so there’s never been a better time to cut back on our energy use. LED lights are known to be more energy saving and we have a great selection to choose from in different colours to help you keep your Christmas magical. Why not switch up the fairy lights outside for Christmas window decorations to welcome your guests to the party?!
Bring the Christmas cheer to your food and drink
Capture your favourite theme for Christmas with a festive table display. There are all kinds of ways you can decorate your Christmas party table to look extra special this year. Serve up welcome drinks with a Christmas market stall treat and drinks stand for glasses of bubbly and mince pies. Decorate your drinks with miniature Santa hat glass decorations – perfect for mulled wine and Christmas cocktails. Lay out a spread of festive treats on Christmas themed tableware. Our festive Christmas tree grazing board is the ideal serving platter for the ultimate helping of nibbles or cheese and biscuits!
Put the finishing touches on your Christmas table décor with a fantastic selection of products at Party Packs. A colour-in Christmas tablecloth keeps the kids entertained at a Christmas dinner and allows everyone to get creative between courses – making it ideal tableware for schools and kids Christmas parties. Miniature Christmas puddings and glass baubles with pegs make a lovely alternative to traditional placecards or seating plan signs. Star shaped foil tableware and shiny metallic foiled plates, cups and napkins bring a glitzy feel to your Christmas party.

Break the ice with Christmas fun & games
It’s time to enjoy the social side of Christmas again! The last few festive seasons have seen us cooped up under Covid restrictions or isolating away from our friends and family, but the good news is that Christmas 2022 looks set to be quarantine-free. It’s been a long time since everyone interacted face to face on a big scale at Christmas time and we’ve missed the fun that large group activities can bring to the festive season. Ice-breakers are great for friends, family, office parties, neighbours, schools, communities/children’s parties and more. Make the most being together again over Christmas with quality time spent with your loved ones, or get to know your co-workers better with games and quizzes for your Christmas works do.
Christmas activities and games are great for young and old alike! Bring people together with a few rounds of Christmas Bingo, get musical with kazoo karaoke or share some fun with a festive take on charades. Get competitive over Christmas trivia or perfect your throwing skills with a reindeer antler hoop toss.

Create a festive photo backdrop
A festive photo backdrop is a must for any Christmas party in 2022 -from office Christmas parties and Christmas club social events to get togethers with your friends and family. If you’re an event host, it’s a great way to advertise your venue for Christmas functions. Your Christmas photobooth is a chance to show off your sequins and glam party outfits for the night or you can make it as wild and wacky as you like – with Christmas novelty hats and glasses.
To create your festive photobooth, hang a shimmer curtain from floor to ceiling or create a balloon arch in Christmas colours for your guests to stand in front of. Alternatively, you can snap up a lifesize Christmas cardboard cutout of Santa Claus or a snowman ‘face in hole’ photo board. Christmas selfie kits contain a vibrant mix of fun photo props with messages and Christmas disguises to hold up for the camera.
Share your Christmas photos and relive the fun of your Xmas celebration! Festive photo backdrops are perfect for posting pictures and videos of your Christmas party to social media – whether it’s on Instagram, Tik Tok, Facebook or the Whatsapp group you made for the event, where you can enjoy looking through all the delights you’ve captured on camera once the party’s over!
