Gift Guide - The Home Edition
The Christmas music has already started in my house and I’m sure for many others too as we attempt to bring some cheeriness to this year. While I’m holding off on the decorations for another week, I have begun scouring my favourite stores to compile some Christmas gift guides.
Most of us have enough things in our life, so the last thing I want to do is give something that isn’t either useful or wanted just for the sake of giving a present. I’ve tended towards more giving ‘experiences’ in recent years (I’ll try and get a post out with a few of my favourites soon) but it’s always nice to have a few bits to wrap up too. Things for the home will always be my go to for presents and am trying to shop with smaller independent businesses as much as possible, which I think is especially important this year (Jeff Bezos really doesn’t need anymore money in his pocket). So here are a mixture of things I already have and love or that are on my wish list.
The majority come from smaller businesses and if you’re after more inspiration I have a longer list with my favourite independent homeware stores at the bottom of this post.
