COLOURFUL CHRISTMAS WISHES FROM
THE SCHOCK
TEAM
FROM THE WILD GREEN FOREST WE COME
We simply must say, SCHOCK is so gladsome!
For across the natural kitchen landscape,
we see our sinks glinting in beautiful shape.
And out of our factory grounds,
new sinks in great numbers abound.
And as we wander among the dark trees,
we hear them call out as bright as a breeze:
“Green Team, innovative pals,” is what they say,
“Make some more sinks on this very fine day.”
The machinery hums on the shopfloor with pride,
as more and more sinks come off the line side by side.
Around the land in kitchen showrooms large and small,
customer numbers swell and they ask, one and all:
“Where is it I’ll find a CRISTADUR® masterpiece?”
They hear: “To last a kitchen’s lifetime you need these.
For coloured SCHOCK highlights with patented quartz core,
are loved by design enthusiasts, amateur chefs and more.”
From the wild green forest we come.
We simply must say, we are so gladsome.
Here’s to another year of colourful sinks,
and enjoying with you our work and our links.
Merry Christmas and a happy New Year
– to you, your family and your team!
Nothing says Christmas quite as much as snacking on sweet treats. So we’ve picked out a few delicious recipes for you to try your hand at and feast on to your hearts’ content.
These moist coconut macaroons have only two ingredients. Sounds super quick and easy? It is! The perfect recipe if you have a sweet tooth but don’t like spending too long in the kitchen.
Crunchy shortbread meets melt-in-the-mouth caramel. A delicious alternative to biscuits filled with jam.
What could be better for breakfast than homemade marmalade? And it’s even better when it tastes so beautifully Christmassy. The perfect gift for relatives and friends or to enjoy for yourself.
CHRISTMAS TIME IS COOKIE TIME
Everyone loves a friendly Christmas card. And it’s even nicer when the card is homemade. It doesn’t have to take long and can really look great. Read on for how to do it.
This fun Christmas postcard is quick to make and will put a smile on anyone’s face.
The presents literally jump out at you when you open this 3D card. It’s easy to make and a great way to use up left-over wrapping paper.
This card is a little more elaborate. But you don’t have to be an artist to create it, because it’s just drawn with simple shapes.
PRINTABLE PICTURE FOR CHILDREN TO COLOUR IN
For your little ones we have a colouring template they can
colour in to match our motto COLOUR YOUR LIFE.
Every year we see the same thing: Elaborately wrapped gifts are unwrapped in seconds and what’s left behind is a huge pile of waste paper. But it doesn’t have to be that way. We have a few tips for you on how to make your gift wrapping sustainable yet beautiful.
Does the daily newspaper go straight in the bin once you’ve read it? Then we have a great way for you to save money and reduce waste. Just choose a nice page, wrap your loved ones’ gifts in it and tie a nice ribbon of fabric, wool or parcel tape around it. Decorate as you like – and it’s done!
Packing paper makes a great alternative to wrapping paper. It’s available virtually everywhere and it’s very sturdy, meaning you can reuse it several times.
You can decorate it with photos, newspaper, potato print, stickers, drawings... The plain colour of the background means you can really let your creative juices flow!
Already widespread in Asia is the trend of wrapping gifts in fabric. There are lots of instructions online on how to wrap gifts beautifully using this technique. You can buy fabric specially made for wrapping gifts or just use any pieces of fabric you have at home.
Another option is to wrap one gift in a second gift. A cardigan or scarf is perfect for wrapping another gift in: that’s two birds with one stone!
