This time of year gets crazy busy so I’m all about trying to simplify things as much as possible and staying organised, right down to gift shopping. Make lists, tick them off and enjoy that satisfaction with a glass of mulled wine! If you have any blanks in your gift lists, I hope this post will inspire some ideas for the special people in your life (or for yourself 😉). Happy shopping!
Prices are correct at the time of publishing and may change.
CHEESE KNIFE SET £34.95 from Mint & May. I have this beautiful brushed gold cheese knife set myself and adore it. Perfect for cheese lovers!
AGATE CHEESE BOARD £68 from Anthropologie. A unique piece of agate makes a stunning cheese board. Anthropologie have several other gorgeous cheese boards, so take your pick!
NESTING BOWLS £50 from Denby. Denby products are beautifully made, practical and very durable, so a set like this will always be welcome.
ETCHED DECANTER £69.95+ from Vinegar & Brown Paper. There is a range of decanters to suit your preferred tipple. Check out the other etched glass products too, they’re all fantastic.
COCKTAIL SET £39.99 from Domu. All the tools you need to make impressive cocktails, in a classic black and gold finish.
WOODEN CHESS SET £89 from Made.com. This is a beautifully crafted game for the chess player in your life.
PLANNER + PEN SET £22 from Anthropologie. You can’t beat a pretty planner to help you stay organised.
OLYMPUS PEN E-PL8 CAMERA £299 for the white one from John Lewis (other colours available). I have heard very good things about this camera. If you know a special someone who wants to up his/her photography game beyond a camera phone, this stylish brilliant compact camera will be very well received!
ROBERTS REVIVAL RD70 DAB/DAB+/FM BLUETOOTH DIGITAL RADIO WITH ALARM £179.99 from John Lewis. With classic good looks and all the functionality you could possibly want from a modern radio, this Roberts digital radio is perfect and comes in a choice of retro colours.
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE’S STAR WARS TRILOGY £22.75 from Amazon. There are many many cool/funny/interesting books but this series tops it for me for the sheer ingenuity. Know someone who loves Star Wars and also appreciates Shakespeare? This is the gift for them, if they’ve not already got it! There are more books in the series that can perhaps serve as their next gift. 🙂
PLANTER WITH PERSONALITY £12.95 from Stupid Egg Interiors. A very cute planter for a plant-lover, available in a choice of colours. Why not buy a little plant to go with it too? Check out Stupid Egg Interiors for more lovely planters and plants.

I should call this just a Gift Guide, as there isn’t anything season specific. Glad you like the ideas here, Lins! 🙂 x
