Christmas Gift Guide for Adults 2020

 ‘It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas….’

Well, maybe not yet but if you are anything like me then you like to get your shopping done early so come December you can just enjoy the month rather than stressing. I have also found that this year I’ve been shopping earlier thanks to lockdown and the uncertainty of what’s going to be happening in December, so I’d rather have my shopping done and dusted rather than panicking. So here I am with the sequel to my Gift Guide for Kids… my Christmas Gift guide for adults.

This year I decided to do things a little differently with my guides as I am putting the stuff for ‘him’ and the stuff for ‘her’ in the same guide. I have done this for a few reasons but the main one is because who am I to decide if a gift is more suited for a man or a woman??? So, with that in mind, here is my gift guide filled with things that I think would make a great gift for any adult this Christmas.

Star Wars Print - £57.00 - https://pulse.gallery/products/the-empire-strikes-back?_pos=1&_sid=cdb16062b&_ss=r **PR SAMPLE**

If you want to treat a the Star Wars fan in your life then I’d seriously recommend heading over to Pulse Gallery’s website and checking out the huge range of Star Wars prints that they have available as there really is something for every budget and every fan! We were very kindly sent a retired Addition ‘The Empire Strikes Back’ print which came with a certificate of authenticity and is 1 of 200 hand numbered editions. The gallery does do much for than Star Wars too with their Disney range featuring prints from Frozen, Maleficent and many more.  

Cavaletto Pyramid Kettle - £39.99 - https://www.towerhousewares.co.uk/cavaletto-3kw-1-7l-pyramid-kettle.html **PR SAMPLE*

I do not know about you but whenever I buy a kettle for myself it ends up being some boring, run of the mill kettle that costs me as little as possible. That is why I think a kettle can make a great gift for your Mum, Dad, or grandparents this Christmas. This Cavaletto Pyramid Kettle from Tower Housewares is perfect as a gift as it is a neutral colour that will fit in any kitchen plus it has a timeless pyramid design that will suit most workspaces. I also think that this kettle is very reasonably priced at under £40.

 

Mermaid Salt Vodka - £40.00 - https://isleofwightdistillery.com/ **PR SAMPLE**

There is so much I want to say about this Vodka that I don’t even know were to begin. Firstly, let’s talk about the bottle. The bottle that this vodka comes in is just so pretty and even once the bottle is empty you won’t want to throw the bottle away. Next let’s talk about the fact that this is a vodka with a conscience. It is vegan, gluten free and zero plastic! And finally, the taste. This vodka is describes as being like a kiss from a mermaid and I think that describes it perfectly. It is the perfect vodka to mix in your favourite savoury cocktails or to have on its own with a bit of soda to take you right back to the long summer’s days on the beach.

 

Prepara Herb Stripper - £5.50 - https://www.divertimenti.co.uk/products/herb-stripper-prepara **PR SAMPLE**

This is the perfect, inexpensive gift for anyone who likes to flex their culinary muscle and cook up a storm. We are big cooks in our house but one of the most annoying things is picking leaves from fresh herbs. It can take forever! Well, thanks to the Prepara Herb Stripper it now takes literally seconds. You simply find the hole that will fir your herb stem through and then you pull it through and PRESTO! This little gadget is dishwasher safe and at just £5.50 it is an inexpensive and practical Christmas Gift that you know will get a lot of use.

BeeBAGZ Starter Set - £27.99 - https://alittlefind.com/collections/beebagz/products/beebagz-starter-set-blue **PR SAMPLE**

About a year ago I made the switch from traditional plastic wrap and tin foil to a more eco friendly and sustainable bees wax wrap alternative. I love this swap and I actually think that bees wax wraps help your food stay fresh for longer. The only issue can be that over time the wraps become less ‘sticky’ as you rinse them. BeeBAGZ are the perfect solution for this as they have made food storage bags out of bees’ wax wraps making food storage super simple and allowing your food to breathe, therefore preserving it for longer. Beeswax is antibacterial and repels smells and odours making it a great way to take your sandwiches to work or to store fruits and veggies to keep them fresher for longer!

Monkey Puzzle from Puzzle Crazy - £23.50-£39.00 - https://puzzlecrazy.co.uk/collections/yvonne-jack/products/monkey-jigsaw-puzzle?variant=35518262182047 **PR SAMPLE**

I don’t know about you, but this year has made me find new hobbies and things to do around the house that I wouldn’t have done before. Hubby and I have started doing puzzles together which is something that I would have never thought I’d be saying but we actually love popping on Netflix in the back ground and settling in to do a puzzle together. We chat which we do it and it has actually been a really nice experience. This beautiful Monkey puzzle was painted by artist Yvonne Jackson and it is available in a range of different options from a 35-piece puzzle for children all the way up to 1000 pieces for the more experienced puzzler. £5 from each sale goes directly to the artist too which is great as you are supporting someone creative this Christmas.

 

Our Remedy CBD gift set - £31.99-£36.99 - https://ourremedy.co.uk/product/our-remedy-cbd-gift-box/ **PR SAMPLE**

This box is perfect for anyone in your life who loves anything vegan, eco friendly and/or slightly alternative. CBD oil is all the rage at the moment and this product from Our Remedy claims to help menstrual pains, hormone imbalance and food craving which, if you are anything like me, pretty much describes me to a TEE when it’s my time of the month. This gift set includes a bottle % vegan and cruelty free and has a really refreshing peppermint taste which I loved because I find that some other oils taste awful! This one was quite pleasant, and I am sure that it helped me a few weeks ago when I was dealing with some awful period pains. Inside this gift set you get a bottle of our Remedy CBD oil, a Prodigy vegan chocolate bar, a bar of handmade soap, some TOTM organic pads and tampons and a mindful colouring page. Everything comes presented in a sweet little box making it the perfect gift to send through the post to your bestie if you cannot actually see them to exchange gifts this Christmas.

Klean Kanteen No 1 Dad Flask - £25.95 - https://www.kleankanteen.co.uk/products/insulated-tkwide-12oz-355ml-no-1-dad-limited-edition?_pos=1&_sid=bcd4ae1da&_ss=r **PR SAMPLE**

I love coffee so anything that keeps it warm or allows me to take it out and about is a totally winner and makes a perfect gift as far as I am concern. Klean Kanteen has a reputation for being a reliable and environmentally conscious brand with their water bottles being on most eco warriors Christmas lists but did you know that they also do thermos flasks too? We were very kindly sent a No 1 dad flask which keeps hot drinks hot for 11 hours and cold drinks cold for 36 hours making it a brilliant gift for any Dad this Christmas.

 

So, there you have it. My Christmas Gift guide for adults that is full to the brim with ideas that I hope will help you when it comes to shopping for your loved ones this Christmas.
