There is a no quibble returns policy and we handle our customer liaison and order fulfilment in-house too. When you order from us, you don’t pay extra for P&P if you buy products from several different makers either. Our suppliers are based in the Westcountry and all the items included on the site are created and put together in Britain. You can find us by visiting: www.elsieandfleur.co.uk.

That’s a wrap! The practice of giving gifts at Christmas time has a long history, however wrapping presents is still a relatively recent thing. In the 19th century, gifts would often be presented in decorated cornucopias or paper baskets. It wasn’t until 1890 that wrapping gifts in decorated paper became the norm and over the years the look of wrapping paper has also changed. Some of the first types were decorated in the elaborate style of the Victorian era. Then the designs started to move away from nature to the ones we commonly associate with Christmas today such as snowflakes, Christmas trees and candles. Make your gifts look extra special with wrapping paper and tags designed in the Westcountry. And don’t forget to send a few Christmas cards to your nearest and dearest. We offer handmade or illustrated Christmas cards and tags. Prices start from £2 per card.
