Eco - The Play & Treat Box

A diya-and-bloom board game with festive dry fruit and a seed bottle.

Three pieces, and the game leads. A 5 × 7 inch cotton drawstring pouch doubles as the board, with ten laser-cut MDF diya-and-bloom pieces inside it. Dry fruit gets opened first, and a corked bottle of seeds and moss on a festive card goes on the desk after.

• The board game is the whole idea. Most gifts here are eaten and forgotten; this one gets played, and the cotton pouch keeps the pieces for next year.
• Three pieces, each doing a different job — play, eat, plant. Nothing duplicates anything else.
• A cotton pouch rather than polyester, 80 g of dry fruit in kraft paper rather than laminated film, and a corked glass seed bottle rather than a printed sachet.
• A recycled kraft box with a printed festive wrap. Uncoated board, no plastic window and no foam, so the whole pack goes into the paper recycling in one piece.
