Hello lovely people of reddit.

I’ve been travelling for a while and bought some souvenirs that I’m worried won’t make it through customs. Mainly, I have two bracelets made from seeds in Cambodia - my understanding is that they aren’t treated and possibly not dried either.

Also, are bamboo boxes allowed as they are processed but not packaged? I don’t know if I’m understanding the UK gov website right.

I assume the braclets need to be declared but will they be taken? I would rather give these things to hostel or hotel staff if they will be confiscated.

Thank you for any advise :)

Sometimes you see pretty things and buy them without thinking. 😅
