Top Gifts for a More Thoughtful Christmas
Every Christmas, many of us are guilty of buying gifts for the sake of gifting something. We want our loved ones to have something to open, but we don’t know what to buy, and we don’t have time to devote to an extensive shopping trip. Or we’ve got into the habit of thinking that we need everyone to have lots to open, without really thinking about buying people things that they want, need, and will get lots of pleasure from. This year,...
Molton Brown Gift set (stocking filler?!) #ChristmasGiftGuide
My teen daughter LOVES Molton Brown products. I mean, really loves them. She gets MAD if anyone pinches a bit of the shower gel (fair enough, it’s not cheap stuff, is it?). And this Molton Brown gift set is absolutely perfect for her, letting her try ALL the flavours (though she’ll always come back to the Coastal Cypress, because she likes the blue best). Since 1973, Molton Brown have been on a journey of scent discovery....

Speakers for a teens bedroom: Edifier R1280T |Christmas Gift ideas 2020

But when do they get to listen to music the way it was supposed to be listened to, through a quality sound system? Not often I reckon. And yet – they’re a sophisticated crowd; they LOVE a quality listening sound, are...
Genuinely ace earbuds under £20. | Christmas Gift Guide
Time and again I’m tasked with finding decent earbuds for my ever-connected-to-tech teens. I have tried the super-cheap under £10 versions; they’re okay… but you’ll only have sound in one ear within 2mths so it’s not actually money-saving in the long run. My aim now is to find earbuds under £20 that will keep a sound-snob teen happy in his ears. So when 1More got in touch to see if we’d like to...
The Handmaid’s Tale Notebook. I WANT.
Oh my, how I want this Handmaid’s Tale Notebook. I have to say – I do try and stay clear of The Literary Gift Company. I actively avoid it, if I’m honest. WAY too tempting. But… temptation to get the better of me, and I wandered over for a quick peek. And once again, I sqeee-ed, oooh-ed, gasped, and was stabbed with longing everywhere I turned. So. Anyway. Once I dragged myself away from the bulging shopping...
