Gay Christmas cards and gifts are here for anyone whose festive post needs a little more queer personality. From rainbow reindeer to a particularly buff Santa, the new online shop has plenty to send to partners, friends and chosen family this Christmas.
Created by designers MJ Palmer and Justin King, GayChristmas.co.uk launched on 31 October with a range of LGBTQ+ Christmas designs. The shop also pledges 10% of its profits to Antidote at London Friend, which supports LGBTQ+ people affected by alcohol and drug use.
Gay Christmas cards and gifts for every kind of festive mood
If your Christmas tree is already competing with a disco ball, the Fab-Yule-ous Collection might feel right at home. It features hot pinks, glittering crowns, disco-inspired designs and cheeky festive slogans.
Meanwhile, the Rainbow Collection gives familiar Christmas imagery a colourful makeover. Think rainbow trees, reindeer, candy canes and baubles.
For something a little softer, Les Be Merry brings a romantic touch to the season. Hallelujah Handsome, on the other hand, offers bold, contemporary designs with a queer artistic edge.
And then there’s the Ho Ho Hunks card bundle, featuring festive characters imagined as rather muscular collectible figures. Your mantelpiece may never be quite the same again.
According to the November print feature, individual cards cost £3.99 and five-card collections are £14.99. Baubles and other gifts are also part of the range. Check the shop for current prices and availability before ordering.
Giving back to the community
Alongside the festive designs, GayChristmas.co.uk has pledged to donate 10% of profits, rather than sales, to Antidote at London Friend.
The service provides specialist support for LGBTQ+ people navigating alcohol and drug use, addiction and recovery. So your Christmas shopping can help support a service for members of our community, too.
Christmas looks different for all of us. Some spend it with relatives, some with partners or friends, and others with the chosen family they’ve built around them. A card that feels like it was made with those relationships in mind can make a lovely change.
GayChristmas.co.uk is an online shop for LGBTQ+ Christmas cards, decorations and gifts. Browse the collections at GayChristmas.co.uk.
