We've only just waved goodbye to Halloween, however, everyone at Ctrl.Alt.Shift is really excited about our new limited edition set of alternative Christmas tree decorations. Creative collective Dorothy have produced a limited edition set of festive trinkets to highlight the not so sparkly side of Christmas that many people experience.

On first appearances the decorations might look like delicate baubles but on closer inspection they are highly finished chrome hand grenades. The baubles represent the Ctrl.Alt.Shift ethos to inspire change through creativity and aim to make people stop and think about the bigger picture.

Christmas is a time of giving, yet the annual defence budget for the UK is £44.5b, compared with a measily foreign aid budget of £7.8b. With each pack purchased you will be making a contribution to Ctrl.Alt.Shift's fight against global conflict.

To order your pack of 6 grenades now, log on to SUCK UK. RRP £20. Alternatively, keeping checking back with Ctrl.Alt.Shift in November for full stockist details.
