12 Days of Festive Makes

Here at Stix2 we have complied some of our favorite festive makes and created our very own crafty Christmas Countdown!

With the dark and cold nights creeping in, Christmas is a wonderful time to get crafting and our countdown provides a little inspiration on what you can make, whilst also showcasing some of our fantastic Demonstrator’s creations.

Handmade gifts are a brilliant and thoughtful way to spread Christmas cheer and love.

Additionally, bespoke Christmas cards have a certain charm about them. Personalized gift tags and homemade decorations also help make Christmas feel extra magical!

Christmas Party 2023!

Last Saturday marked the UK Industrial Tapes and Stix2 Anything annual  Christmas party!

After a year of hard work it was fantastic to get together and let our hair down – in true Geordie fashion!

The Christmas party is always a memorable occasion. What’s great is that all departments, both from UK Industrial Tapes and Stix2 get together for a good old knees up!

We started with a delicious banquet at the stunning Babucho, Newcastle and then headed for cocktails at The Slug and Lettice, Quayside, which provided the perfect festive atmosphere.

A special thank you to our Directors, Ruth, Brian, Matthew and Michael for hosting such a brilliant event, which was thoroughly enjoyed by all!

Most importantly, thank you to all our incredible staff for all their hard work and for creating such good memories at this years X-mas do!
