When someone tells you: “I really don’t want anything”, don’t believe them! It is ALWAYS nice to receive a thoughtful gift, especially if you weren’t expecting it.

The excitement of unpacking a present is a powerful feeling and it doesn’t have to cost much. Thoughtfulness makes a much bigger impact so make sure you include a handwritten card in a beautiful envelope.

I know it can be tough finding the perfect gift, so I have rounded up some of my favourites for you. I have divided it up into a few different sections and of course the books and stationery is three times as big as the others :) I hope you feel inspired!
