We’re all busy, but having a well-stocked gifting drawer will mean you always have the perfect present when those pesky school parties roll around. If you want to add an extra touch of magic to all of your gifts this year, here are some hacks to try.
Package it in a piñata: Gift cards are by far the simplest of gifts and great for all ages but the presentation can often be a little underwhelming and can feel a little low effort. Packaging is key here to add a bit of fun and keep the surprise element. Buy some mini piñatas in an array of designs (think mini pineapples, disco balls, stars etc) and stockpile some gift cards that meet your budget and there you have it! Fill the piñata with sweets for maximum magic.
Treats in a tumbler: This is my favourite gift to give at the moment and works well if you want to stick to a budget but keep the wow factor. Begin with a tumbler (this one is only £2 in the sale) and choose treats that match the colour to create a visually appealing gift. You can tailor this to the recipient but my favourite things to include are cute stationery such as fancy sharpeners, erasers and highlighters, fluffy pens, keyrings, sheet masks, hair clips, bath bombs, body mist and lip glosses.
Cosy keepsakes: The best gifts are the ones that will be treasured for years to come. Warmies are my go-to gift for this as they come in various fun designs that everyone will love and can double up as hot water bottles to keep them cosy. This flowerpot design is adorable! They also have a lavender scent that helps little ones drift off.
Think tech for teens: Tech gifts are always well received, and my favourite gadgets and gizmos are always these phone/controller holders. Just LOOK at this Stitch one! Cute for gamers and tech-loving teens, these cool gadget organisers help them keep their tech in check! Also, you don’t have to reinvent the wheel. This wall charger can charge 3 devices at one time! It’s small, safe and super fast! WIN WIN!
