Updated on Christmas Gift Guide 2023

Christmas Holiday Gift Guide!

A cute, chunky frog matte keychain which is made of recycled acrylic.

Friends, it’s that time of the year again that we are starting to think a bit more about Christmas gifts. I wanted to put together a short gift guide which would suit most budgets from my store. This is an updated guide from last year but it will again start at the smaller items which would make great stocking fillers and work our way up to custom orders. Thanks for looking, I hope you are able to find something to suit your budget here.

Stocking fillers

A product photo. The focus of the image is the hand painted wooden ornament which contains a mouse on its hind legs and facing to the left of the image. The mouse is wearing a red scarf and has its nose up in the air. The wooden slice is sitting on a backdrop of fairy lights, artificial ivy and hessian. The whole image has a warm yellow- orange hue to it.

There is a small handful of hand painted Christmas decorations with different designs. These are £3 each.

A product photo of a pair of silver plated earrings with a large decorative, steam punk keys.

These beautiful, steam punk style earrings are £5 and have a silver plated hook fixing.

Colzo, a white woman is holding up a square print against a cream wall. The print is a cute kawaii style illustration of a rainbow with smiling clouds at each end. The text on the rainbow reads "Breathe Don't Leave". The background of the print is a light blue gradient fading to white in the bottom right corner.

This next one is part of a bundle in my shop. A mini print with a kawaii style illustration which reads “breathe don’t leave” a mental health mantra. You can get this design as a print, two stickers or as a badge. The bundle is £7.50, the print on its own is £5, the stickers are £2.50 for two and the badge is £1.50 so the bundle together is a saving of £1.50.

In the foreground at the right hand side is a leafy green plant. Behind the woman is an advertising sign with a hot chocolate on it and in the distance behind the board is two people with their backs to the viewer.

This is another one of the mini prints that are available in my shop. This is also £5.

A cute, chunky frog matte keychain which is made of recycled acrylic.

A new addition for me this year is this frog key chain makes for another unique gift. Made from recycled acrylic, they have a matte print on front. The company I use to have these made re recycles their offcuts so you can feel good about adding a hint of personality to your keys!
