About us

It's no secret that Christmas decorations are bad for the planet. In fact, 50% of Christmas waste goes to landfills in Australia every year. That's why Sari Munro founded Nordic Christmas, an interior designer-led concept store that brings sustainable Nordic-style Christmas decorations from Finland to eco-conscious Aussie homes.

 

Explore our hand-picked selection of exclusive, lightweight tree-toppers, baubles and garlands made of sustainable materials that will perfect your Christmas tree for years to come. 

 

It all began with a simple yet frustrating problem: a floppy tree-top star.

 

Sari grappled with the challenge of decorating a freshly cut Pine Christmas tree here in Australia. Indeed, her tree top would bend, crash, or collapse under the weight of a tree-topper star. And for 15 years she tried everything to support the star: tape, wire, ribbon  - you name it. But nothing seemed to work.

 

Then she remembered those lightweight tree-topper stars commonly used in Finland and wondered where they came from. 

 

Enter K.A. Weiste, one of Europe's oldest Christmas ornament makers. Founded in Helsinki in 1924 by Kalle Weiste, they've been creating timeless decorations for nearly a century.

 

More importantly, Weiste's sustainable Christmas decorations are a sustainable option compared to ordinary mass-made Christmas decorations - bioplastic baubles and biocomposite or paper garlands, tinsels, filigrees and tree-top stars. This means they are a durable but lightweight, guilt-free Christmas decoration option for you and won't cost the earth.

 

Hence, Sari's family has cherished the Weiste tree-topper stars for generations.
