With less than a month until Christmas, the stress of finding the perfect gift for your loved one may be starting to take its toll.

With four distinctive styles to choose from, we guarantee you’ll find the perfect gift for your loved one.
Bees in vivid technicolour – a gift that can start a honey farm and send children to school
Melbourne-based mixed-media artist Chrissie Abbott was commissioned to produce the brand new “Bees” card. The result is a beautiful, vividly technicolour piece that Chrissie says is a celebration of bees.
“I gathered images I felt that were engaging, scanned them and made the composition,” she says. “I wanted to make it really joyful, with a positive vibe … bees just coming in and out of the flowers, doing a bee thing.”
Not only will this beautiful bee card bring a smile to your loved one’s face, but you can’t beat the feeling of knowing you’ve helped families in Papua New Guinea to earn a living through providing low-cost equipment and training for a family in beekeeping. Plus, with the money from the honey, the family can buy medicines and send their kids to school.
Chrissie says working with Oxfam was a real pleasure. “It makes a nice change to do something for good.”
The striking Fair Trade Education card,a gift that can build schools, hospitals and wells
