The festive countdown is officially starting next week as we head into July – are you ready?
Here at Stix2 we have got you covered for crafting all year round, but kickstart the Christmas in July trend and get your make-on this Summer with our fabulous festive range!
Design a cracker craft using our Christmas Card Bundles, ideal for 3D makes, or Shaker designs.
Or why not mock up your Santa Stop Here signs using our MDF Tags & Door Hangers
And finally no X-mas art project would be complete without a Christmas die incorporated into the design!
Alternatively, use our General Purpose Coins range around the Home, on posters, Family Calendars or Frames. Hook & Loop Coins make wall or poster display super away to interchange, really handy for To Do Lists and Labeling.
Wanna know a Trade Secret? If you can’t get enough of our hook & Loop projects, you can contact us directly at sales@stix2.co.uk and buy Jumbo Rolls of almost every product! – How handy is that!?!
