The Home Gift Edit Pt. 1
Welcome back! Hope everyone is starting to get into the festive spirit.
This weekend i’m looking at decorating the house (& blogging about it!)
In the mean time, we’re slowly buying the perfect gift for our loved ones, or trying. Ever feel like there’s just too much choice?
Yeh, I feel that. So if you’re looking for home and wellness gifts, I have compiled this edit specifically for you!
In the last post we spoke about supporting our small businesses and I wanted to carry this through, mixing it with some of our high street favourites to create beautiful hamper style gifts for the special people in your life. These can be swapped out for similar products; some are definitely a splurge, some are more of a save but theres some starting points if you’re completely overwhelmed with the art of giving this year. Who knows…there may be something new you never even thought of!
We’re going to cover the rule of 5 (& a bonus) If you’re not familiar when putting together a hamper style gift the rule of 5 is; Something they want, Something they need, Something to wear, Something to read, Something they didn’t know they wanted. Our bonus will cover a gift that fits with each theme for the perfect aesthetic!
