There are only 42 days until Christmas, aaaargh!!! The Christmas lights were switched on in Cardiff this week and the Winter Wonderland ice skating has set up home in the city centre and I hadn't really put much thought into Christmas until I saw all the glistening lights. My mum has a saver card in the supermarket and gets this years cards in the January sales but I'm a lot less organised and leave everything until the last minute. I've made an uncharacteristically early start by looking at presents way before Christmas eve as I've got a few Secret Santa's and friends to buy for this year. Here are some of the lovely things I found on my search for the perfect Christmas presents-
I always find buying for male friends so difficult, I'm sure they don't really need another mug or scarf so here are some fun gift ideas.
Do you know any great independent retails were you can get great gifts? I love a bit of 3 for 2 in Boots for cosmetics but I do like to give more unique gifts to my loved ones.
Is November far too early for you to be thinking about Christmas or did you buy this years presents in July?
Need to find a gift for someone but no idea what to get them? give me a few details about the person you are buying for and I can give you some suggestions (men are always the trickiest)

I must admitt that I have already bought some presents this year, but usually I leave it so last minute!

I'm not a hat person, but that one is cute.
ReplyDeleteAlso Bulter and Wilson stuff in general is to die for... I'd be happy with anything from that brand! :)

ReplyDeleteLove this post, I always find present buying so difficult as I feel the same about the usual boots 3 for 2 - I'd love to receive them but I think giving them feels like a bit of a cop out

Lovely picks. I haven't done any shopping, and people have been asking me what I want but I haven't a clue!
ReplyDeleteOh bloody hell Gem please keep these male gift ideas coming. Got a few blokes who would LOVE that camera clock so I'm relying on you to help me out for more ideas alright?! ;) ♥ Claire @ Jazzpad
ReplyDeleteToday, most relationships are not marriage, and if they do half of them end in divorce. I was lucky to find love in a place without hope.
ReplyDeleteOh, some really cute ideas, love the tote bag! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThe Christmas lights looked so pretty in Cardiff :) much better than what we have in Newbury!
