Every year I hear people say I am hard to buy for! Which is a claim I whole heartedly dispute. I think the problem here is that people overthink gift buying and sometimes its the little things that count. For me it’s always the thought that has gone into a gift that matters most. With that in mind I thought I would create a Christmas Present Ideas For Mums guide. In the hope that there is something on this little list will inspire you to find the perfect last minute gifts.
There Are Several Levels Of Christmas Present Ideas.
This depends on budget, perfect world scenarios and thoughtful gifts that match a person. Where the buyer has thought about small gifts that the recipient would really love considering their likes, dislikes and hobbies.
I have compiled a list of lovely gifts that I would love to receive, thinking of my boys and what their budgets may be. But also gifts that are easy to buy. Because let’s face it teen boys (or at least our teen boys) love buying gifts for others. However prefer the minimum effort approach.
Christmas Present Ideas For Mums
For The Gin Lover
Mermaid Gin
Omg I would buy this gorgeous bottle of Mermaid Gin just for the scaly bottle its a work of art. With notes of citrus a pepper this small batch gin has a deliciously smooth but fresh taste and is available online for £39.50.
A Batch Gin Subscription.
I have been a subscriber to Batch Gin for over a year now and love trying out new flavours and botanicals every month. Notable favourites of this year are the award winning Industrial Strength Gin and Buddhas Hand Gin. This months edition is infused with frankincense and myrrh, and filled with edible gold. Giving a sparkly snow globe effect. The Christmas gin has is packed with festive flavours such as nutmeg, cinnamon and pine.
Also if you fancy trying out your own subscription I have a special reader offer giving you £10 of your first month, just use the code CHRISTMASCHAOS at the checkout.
The Travelling Mum
One thing I always love is a pretty toiletry bag set, I travel a lot and love everything matching. As I am currently loving all things flamingo and this set from Rex London is the perfect Christmas gift, but also something I will use repeatedly throughout the year. Check out all of their Flamingo gear here, I mean what’s not to love?
Pampering Christmas Gifts
Perfume
I am perfume obsessed, so always on the look out for new and exciting fragrances. And the more the merrier, you can never have too much perfume.
Floral Street is a new favourite of mine, there is large selection of floral based fragrances that feel unique and fresh, a particular favourite is Wild Vanilla Orchid. You can buy Floral Street online or in John Lewis.
Body Butter Makes A Great Stocking Filler.
Because let’s face it, you can never have enough. This cute set of body butter from Mad Beauty is festive and offers a choice of flavours depending on your mood.
Beauty Treats From Oriflame
Oriflame was a brand my Mum used all the time when I was younger and I had no idea it was still going. However this Swedish beauty brand is indeed still going strong and has some great products of offer including Eco Beauty which is a responsible eco friendly vegan range.
Blush Duo From Dr.Hauschka
I adore this limited edition Blush Duo in apricot and rosé from Dr. Hauschka. All the products on offer are certified as 100% natural with natural pigments.
You Can’t Go Wrong With Flowers
Nothing makes me smile more than flowers, and this gorgeous festive Cinnamon Spice bunch of flowers by post is the perfect was to bring a bit of festive spirit into the home. Filled with festive favourites it not only looks amazing but also smells divine and can be found on Blossoming Gifts. If you love flowers they have some stunning bunches.
Lingerie Is A Wonderful Gift.
My favourite lingerie brand is Fantasie, I wrote about getting measured last year. It really has been life changing in terms of how my clothes fit. Wearing pretty lingerie is about making yourself feeling great not about pleasing anyone else. I could honestly lose hours choosing, but its also nice for someone to choose for me and surprise me every now and then.
Hampers With A Difference
There is something about hampers that make me giddy, they feel like such a treat. However some feel more special than others and this Blush Hamper from Gift Pup is perfect. Gift Pup offer a wide range of hampers for all the family, but for the record pink fizz is my kind of hamper.
Cozy Knits For Winters Days
We are having plenty of cold frosty days and there is nothing better than getting wrapped up and warm. But it still has to be stylish and Kit And Kaboodal offers wide selection of gorgeous slouchy winter knits. My favourite is this Luxury Wool Mix Jumper, although I have to say I could have chosen loads!
And there you have it some festive favourites which are great last minute buys, that will make great Christmas presents, but wont break the bank. Happy shopping and have a peaceful chilled out Christmas. xx
