Create your own Christmas Eve Box with Phoenix Trading!
Christmas Eve boxes are becoming an ever popular family tradition in many countries. Phoenix Trading have the perfect gift boxes to use as a Christmas Eve box. There are a couple of different designs available and they only cost £10 each.
Plus I have all the goodies to help you fill up your box and have a wonderful Night Before Christmas!
Open the box on Christmas Eve morning and spend the day getting in the festive mood. Alternatively the contents keep the children entertained while you get on with preparing for the Christmas Day festivities.
