Green Gift Guide!

14 days and counting folks… until the jolly old fella sneaks down the chimney. To help make sure those stockings are overflowing with goodies that are green at heart, over the next week we will be bringing you an eco hit list to add to your wish list. Avoid the car parking Battle Royale and shop online to have your gifts delivered before the sleigh hits the slopes.

Starring in our first guide is our beloved Brisstyle – a collective of Australian crafters, artists, designers and artisans, all from Brisbane and Northern NSW. To see the 100+ artisans up close and personal, head to the Indie Twilight Markets in the heart of Brisbane’s King George Square on Friday night to finish up your shopping. This special Friday night event will create a festive lantern lit celebration of local market stalls around the Lord Mayor’s statuesque Christmas Tree and Pantomime stage.
