Have Yourself a Big Little Christmas

This Christmas at The Works, we’re celebrating the little things that make a big Christmas — the tiny traditions and the joyful moments that make the season truly special.

From decorating the tree with the kids, to cosying up with a festive read, gathering around the table for cherished games, or writing that all-important letter to Santa, it's the little things that create a big Christmas to remember. The laughter. The sparkle of the handmade decorations. The stories passed down through generations. 

It’s these joyful moments with loved ones that truly make the season magical.

That’s why we’re on a mission to reignite old traditions and spark new ones — helping you create a Christmas well spent, where the pressure of perfect wrapping and flawless tablescapes take a back seat to laughter, connection, and fun.
