Calling all Lush fans!

You can now be in with a chance of designing your very own Knot Wrap 

A reusable alternative to gift-wrap, the winning Knot Wrap design will become the fabric cover of a new knot wrapping book, available in Lush shops around the world

Lush fans globally are invited to unleash their creativity and enter Lush’s Global Knot Wrap Competition opening for entries on Monday 27th March.  With a brief of ‘Knot Wrapping around the world’ Lush wants this Knot Wrap design to celebrate the tradition of giving, passing forward and regifting around the world. 

Providing waste-saving options for gifts, big and small, Lush Knot Wraps are made using vintage materials, Organic cotton or yarn made from 100% recycled PET plastic bottles, reducing plastic waste which takes hundreds of years to break down. 

• Since launching in 2010, Lush customers have bought over 7 million Knot Wraps! 
• Lush has transformed over 6.1 million PET plastic bottles into Knot Wraps since launch

“It is possible to never buy gift wrap again if you pass forward the tradition of reusable knot wraps to your family and friends. The cloth can be kept in the family and passed down through generations” – Maria Feast, Lush Gift Packaging Team

The winner of Lush’s Global Knot Wrap competition will receive £1000 cash prize, a printed sample of their design as a Knot Wrap and a copy of Lush’s Knot Wrap book (upon launching in November). 

The winning design will then enter the sampling process, and if approved will be in with a chance of becoming the fabric cover of the Lush knot wrapping book launching globally in November. Thanks to clever design, the knot wrap will also be able to be used and reused for all different types of reusable gift wrapping. 

Entries for the competition can be submitted via email to design.submissions@lush.co.uk. Entries close on Thursday 27th April and the shortlisted entries will be contacted no later than Monday 15th May 2023.

The winning design will be chosen by Suzie Hackney, Lush Gifts Creative and Category Lead. Suzie is passionate about developing new ways to package gifts and creating incredible designs using a variety of recycled, regenerative and reusable materials. Suzie’s role is to seek out exciting ways for customers to present gifts to their friends and loved ones for every occasion. 

“Knot Wraps are such a fun and beautiful way to wrap gifts and a joy to design, they are a blank canvas to showcase design and storytelling. I am really excited to be opening up this opportunity for someone to add to our growing archive of designs and can’t wait to see what people come up with!” – Suzie Hackney, Lush Gifts Creative and Category Lead
