Whilst we do not claim to be perfect here at House of Alyssa Smith, we are always striving to do better in the way we run our little brand, and the efforts we make in reducing our carbon footprint are improving every year.
Sustainability is at the heart of our concerns, and we need to work together as a whole world
to help to slow down and reverse the damaging changes that we are seeing.

We are so pleased to be able to offer our gift wrapping service from February 2021, featuring re-usable satin wraps. Not only do these look absolutely gorgeous (and a cut above the rest, even if we say so ourselves!) but they are also a much better alternative to paper wrapping.

Anyone who knows anything about packaging in retail will probably know that making significant changes to packaging can be quite expensive: the recycled paper and card that we use within our printed media often costs far more than purchasing high-gloss card and paper that has not yet had a previous life, and switching to eco cardboard for gift bags and boxes is similarly pricey.
