Pink Paper Crowns
This is a preorder item and is due for disptach in late September. Please note, orders containing preorder items will be shipped together.
A set of six reusable paper party crowns, each individually patterned in shades of pink and red.
Screen printed by hand on recycled paper, every crown features a different design and is generously sized to comfortably fit adult heads. The sturdy paper construction means they can be flattened after the celebration, packed away and brought back to the table for another gathering.
Use them in place of traditional Christmas cracker crowns, around the Christmas table or for celebrations throughout the year.
Why we chose this
The paper crown might be one of the best parts of a Christmas cracker - and also one of the most unnecessarily disposable.
We loved the idea of replacing that fleeting version with something beautiful enough to actually keep. These make the familiar ritual feel more considered while keeping all of the fun of everyone sitting around the table wearing a slightly ridiculous crown.
Paired with the pink and red paper chains, they make an especially joyful Christmas table and can become part of the decorations brought out year after year.
