One of the items available is the "Little Christmas" pack of 20 Christmas cards featuring a simple "Happy Christmas" greeting. In addition to this, ethically minded shoppers can purchase recycled gift wrap and gift tags.

Tearcraft has also produced the traditional advent calendar with fair trade chocolate and Christmas decorations hand made by craftspeople in the developing world.
