Snow is falling,
all around me, it is coming.
I am excited more than ever this year,
given we have Christmas, maybe too, oh gosh.
What a Christmas it's going to be. Anyway, hello guys.
Welcome back to my channel. Welcome back to
a brand new video. If you tuned in on Sunday,
first video of November, my gift guide, first
everyone, which this year I kickstarted things with pets
and pet owners. So if you missed it
and wanted to check that out, then that video is now live.
But today we are talking all things
For her, a range of budget,
but we have some stocking fillers coming up in another video.
We've got some advent calendar fillers, B&M,
even DIY Christmas cracker ideas, all to come.
And of course the gift guide for him, which will be next as well.
But for today, just a generic gift guide for her.
So we've got a little cozy stocking full of ideas.
Obviously you can tell it's actually not full.
Full of ideas and suggestions that I will fire over to you today
and I will link everything that
I can that is available to link down in the description box below.
If you wanted to grab
a pen and paper maybe even grab a cuppa I've got
my is this the first seasonal stuff seasonal
obviously I've had my Halloween mugs I think
this is the first time I'm drinking out a Christmassy
mug, we've got...
To celebrate today, my snowflake mug from the White Company,
very simple and minimal
and understated. Hopefully they bring these again this year.
Coffee in hand, I hope you've got yourself a nice cozy drink.
It is a bit hot so I'm just gonna put it to one side for now
but that's gonna keep me going throughout today's video.
I'm gonna try and whiz through and not waffle too much
and just kind of like list things
because I have a tendency to waffle
and then have to edit loads out of these videos anyway
because they just go on for far too long.
So let's do exactly that, let's kickstart.
I've not got any particular order with this list.
I've just, as and when I've been thinking about things
throughout the whole year, honestly,
I've been jotting it down,
so it's just in whatever order that we've got.
I have kind of noted prices,
but obviously they're subject to change,
or I'll try and find the best price I can online
to link below, so like if anything's on offer,
I'll try and find the cheapest link available.
I'm waffling, let's jump into it.
First thing, number one on my list is bath salts.
And I particularly liked the look of these ones from Veve.
I've recently discovered Veve
as a makeup brand, beauty brand.
I've been using some of their products.
I've got some of their glow, what's it called?
It's like the glow liquid formula
that I've just popped on my like high points.
Really like it.
So for the bath lover, I think they will love them.
Number two, I found this brand David and Charles Limited.
They do these bouquet in a book.
They're kind of like paper crafting type things
Where you can.
Create and DIY flowers,
but they also do like a Christmas wreath version, so for the crafty
person. Then I came across this brand, Spiracle,
which do audiobooks in a card. So it's a Christmas
card that you could gift with a bit of a difference.
They can scan the QR code and
it takes them through to an audiobook
that you've purchased for them to listen to.
I love the personalized touch to a photo book,
and especially if the person that you're buying
for has had a recent occasion,
like a wedding this year or had their first baby. And there's
a real premium brand that I've come across called Milk Books.
And they, again, prices completely
range from much more budget, smaller options,
do some beautifully like thick linen covered
Gorgeous coffee table books that you can have out
on display like as a main centerpiece.
You can even have it left open on a display page,
say if you've maybe been traveling.
Got some gorgeous travel pictures to include in there.
I love my Tangle Teaser brush.
I use it every single day.
Helps prevent damage.
Skims have teamed up with them
and created their very own collab like with Tangle Teasers
where they're obviously in the neutrals,
but they've also got Skims on the back.
So for a Tangle Teaser lover to give them a fresh one,
but also get them the Skims.
Collab, another personalized gift idea.
And this was actually a brand that reached out to me
called Love Tune.
So they very kindly offered to give me a discount code
for you guys if you wanted to use it, Freya10.
That will get you 10% off.
They do personalized songs.
I believe it might even be AI generated
because it's very, very quick turnaround.
I think you put in three sentences or so
about the song that you are wanting them to create
and you tell them who that you're creating it for.
So they actually did like a really...
Sweet, personalized song for us.
I'm not gonna play it because it is very personal,
but suited to our baby.
Our little rainbow baby. A lovely small business
called Amber Davenport reached out and offered to
send me a couple of their calendars.
I always think it's nice to get a calendar because it gives you
a nice fresh start to the new year
and she has some beautiful designs on her website. So yeah,
2027 wall calendar. Popped into Oliver Bonas the other day
and they had some kitsch products like
the hair care brands. A couple of items I thought
were a bit more unique in ideas that I've never
I've never seen before the taming wand.
I thought it was quite a good,
well, I say unique, like a practical purchase
that you maybe just don't think about,
but Taming Wand, especially for someone who likes to do
hair up, do slick back looks,
they had hair perfume and they had some scents.
What was the one that I liked?
Amber something, Amber Shores, I think it was called.
Hello.
Hello.
How are you?
Good, just filming, you okay?
Yeah, came up with an idea.
I've already filmed the video now.
You're too late, but go on.
I might include it in this one.
Oh, I sent you a picture of it.
Do you know when you go into a furniture shop like Next and you look
at their sofas and things, they've got a full wall of little squares,
swatches, yeah, but they're the size of a coaster.
Yeah. And so you could get loads of samples to match the colour
of your room and use them as coasters. Yeah. Yeah. Well done.
I put mine on the windowsill and put candles on them
because then they don't mark the windowsill.
Yeah there's a little like candle protector.
Yeah and next to my um bed I've got one
that matches my blinds the same colour.
Oh yeah.
and i just have one at the side of my bed
so if i put a bottle of water on it or anything
just helps absorb all the water
or anything yeah it doesn't mark it but they're like a coaster but
they're paper thin but they protect
and and the good thing is you can get them in any color so
if you've got a cream room a black room
and they're free you wanted and they're free and
not only that but if you wanted a thicker one
if you get tile samples from a tile shop they
They come in coaster size as well.
I will leave you to it.
Okie doke.
Bye.
Alright, love you, bye.
There we go.
Mum coming through with the gifting suggestion,
she's getting involved with all the Christmas
gifting ideas.
But yeah, so where was I saying, what was I saying?
Emily English, she's bringing out a meal planner,
I'm not, what date is this video going live?
Is it maybe today?
It's release date I think is today, so yeah,
for like the person that likes a little journal
or jot down of like meal planning and prep, she's brought out that.
I'm just in time for Christmas gifting season.
Speaking of books,
Frieda McFadden, love a Frieda McFadden book.
My favorite is Never Lie, obviously the housemaid series.
She's got a short story that's come out.
It's a Christmas themed one called The Gift, I believe.
And it's only about four pounds as well.
Again, sticking with books, Pumpkin Spice Cafe Cookbook,
which isn't just specific to pumpkin spice season,
autumn season.
They also have a few recipes from
The Christmas Tree Farm, like, edit book.
It's a Laurie Gilmore series.
I've talked about that book before.
Love a Gua Sha.
And I feel like...
Anyone that's into their skincare will also love them.
And if you want to get a bit of a more premium one,
the Face Gym, we've got a Face Gym in our Selfridges
at the Trafford Centre.
And I've had a couple of facials with them before
and they are lovely.
They're kind of like, they're like workouts for your face.
They get your muscles going,
but they actually sell their own gua sha.
I think it's like a metal, looks really smart as well.
I also love laundry care and like posh laundry care.
I've got a couple of ideas and suggestions,
but the first one that I wanted to mention, By Matter.
New product that they've released this year called Liquid Iron.
So I thought I would recommend that because I've actually had one
and used it and it's really good.
For the gardener, some kind of like flower seed box organiser.
There was a kit that I saw online that was quite affordable,
which had loads of different bits for like
your different seed compartments, organising them, labelling.
I know I mentioned a Tangle Teaser, Skims collab at £22.
But if you want to go real premium, Bon Bross,
that brand, wow, I think they're about £80, £90.
And guys, they do a baby version, a Bon Bross for babies.
I love a Sunday shower foam.
It's like a really soft, luxurious,
they are quite strong scented
and they've got some scents that I've had in the past
that I'm like, ooh, that's probably a bit too much for me.
They've actually got some duos as well
that you can buy as a gift.
set I know they do the gingerbread and candy cane gift set
but they've also brought out another one
which has this what I mean by might be too much for me personally
but an eggnog scent although
if you like the sweet scents I bet
that's like really vanilla-y that one comes in a set with
plum pudding bit of dental hygiene always recommend
a Suri toothbrush we love our Suri
toothbrushes and it's one of those purchases
that buying a toothbrush that it's like
do you not like love spending your money on it
but you can appreciate a good quality one also
another thing is like a water flosser the Usmile one
if you prefer water flossing as opposed
to like manual another kind
of like more high-end price point main gift type gift idea Ninja Crispy
this is on my christmas wishes i might even have
a look in some black friday sales and tom and i
might actually get one for the house to upgrade
our airfryer it's a brand that i've come across
This is a cross called Holy Cacao and it is a kind of
Kind of like supplement, it's not supplements,
it's protein and collagen-based products.
And I love a bone broth as well.
The benefits from bone broth is so nice,
but they do a bone broth that is like,
it's got cacao in it,
so it's kind of like a hot chocolate,
but a healthy version.
A really nice one to maybe gift at Christmas
for the person leading into the new year,
wanting to be like new year, new me, like health as well.
They also do protein collagen bars.
And also, just to note,
The branding.
Beautiful.
I also thought a nice idea would be a Patreon subscription.
If you listen to a podcast that have an added
on Patreon subscription that you don't already
have to have someone maybe gift that for you,
which most of them are say like £3 a month.
Back to laundry care, I've got another suggestion
that I came across called Laundry Sauce.
Laundry Sauce, I think it's called.
Again, another gorgeous brand,
but they do these dryer sheets I thought would be a really
nice gift addition.
for Posh Laundry Care.
Have a little interim sip of my coffee.
Treats Studio have become really popular this year
as a brand for gifting.
They've got some good little accessories.
They obviously do clothes, the matcha cups, the coffee cups.
And they've been really popular.
Same with the snack bowls.
They've got mini snack bowls.
They've got the fries bowl.
Another thing that I've heard people talk about this year,
ear seeding.
And obviously you can go into somewhere to have a
Professionally done.
I know Selfridges have a brand, is it Aya or Ava?
Brava, I can't remember.
But they also, you can buy on Selfridges
the individual packs that you can use yourself
and do it yourself and it like teach you how to do it.
Something to do with like acupressure points.
rebalancing look into it
but I know it's been quite popular this year. I always
think scented drawer liners
or centered cards that you can hang up or have in
bags are a really nice idea.
H&M have brought out some as well as what do they
they're like some scented pebbles as well.
I think this is quite a fun idea and
I actually got this for my mum one year as a gift
and it was a life drawing
class.
with a bestie so I booked for her and her friend
to go to a life drawing class
and just have a bit of a giggle.
Drinks and snacks, make an evening out of it,
go out for dinner, whatever.
Again, for more of a garden lover,
at 45 pounds, you can get a tree in a tube
from the present tree.
I know Dalesford did sell them,
but I had another look and I can't see them online anymore.
So maybe they just sell them seasonally
in more of the summery months.
I've just realised going through this list,
I've got loads of laundry carpets,
which is so random,
but another brand that I came across called La Lux.
Laundry. They do dryer sheets as well or beads
and they also do like a mist like a fragrance
laundry mist. The vintage vanilla sounds really nice
and they're about 20 pounds. I love anything
that's thought-provoking and a good Vex King book is always a win.
I know he's had a few bestsellers
but I also wanted to mention the deep meaningful conversations
with myself because that can be
something that you can use as a bit
of a conversation starter over Christmas or it is
self-reflective type thing as well that you can go away
and maybe start the new year fresh
with some mindfulness and he's yeah his books are brilliant.
A Bath Lover, Spa at Home,
I've seen that you can get these bubble producers
that you can add to your bath
and it make it feel like a jacuzzi.
How cool is that?
I love a little white company gift idea.
And this year I have some cozy slippers,
their latest additions, which I wanted to recommend.
And I also wanted to recommend their waterless diffuser
because for anyone that likes a
room diffuser and uses the white company oils which are fab by the way.
This is so easy and
convenient compared to any others that you have
to like mix in with the water because it's waterless
and it's portable as well so you can kind of charge it
but then you can move it around.
It's really easy and convenient. Came across this brand Copper Mindful
It comes with a tea bag for the tea but then a QR code
to listen to a mindfulness practice like a bit of a meditation
so it really is encouraging you to have your moment to just
Have a bit of peace and quiet,
enjoy your cup of tea whilst listening to a mindfulness meditation
type affirmation audio. And I just thought, what a lovely concept.
I also came across this
book called One Year Wiser. It's only 19 pounds.
It's kind of like a birthday
interview style book. I've also recommended the Emily Rowling.
Emily Rowling's one birthday letters to my baby
which I actually have for our baby but also
another thing that she sells which I found really useful this year
and it's the first year that I've
had it and I have used it is the a year
of cards it's like a linen binder so I actually have ours
out on the console because one it looks nice two it's convenient
so as and when I buy cards
throughout the year for occasions that I'm like oh
that would be good for like Mother's Day or
Okay well that would be good for so-and-so's birthday
but that's not for another few months.
Pop it in the slot and you've already got your card ready.
You can also jot down your different occasions throughout the year
so that you can kind of like have it as a bit of a reminder as well.
I always think it's quite nice to gift a Christmas ornament,
some kind of special ornament or decor piece.
I know Etsy have some that I've come across.
They're like hand embroidered hanging decorations, which...
Adds a personal touch
because you can actually have them embroidered for the handwriting for
the loved one that has written the message.
Like one more laundry recommendation. This is because
I saw it the other day on Tallow and Ash
and I obviously worked with Tallow and Ash fairly
recently. They are bringing out a Christmas edition.
It's coming out in November. I don't
know if it's already out or not.
So I haven't got my hands on it, but it looks...
like such a lovely gift set.
Stationery wise I noticed a couple of new in editions on H&M.
They've got some really beautiful notebooks
planner style like especially again if you
like the aesthetics the linen cover
the plain something that you can use all year round.
They're from about £6.99 so they're really affordable as well.
I picked up a couple of
baskets recently. They come in this set of two.
It might actually be quite a nice idea to maybe
Maybe in December I'll do something like this where I can...
suggest some ideas of like DIY hamper filler type things
or maybe I'll do it on Instagram but yeah
these gift so I think the the larger basket was selling for 15 pounds
or you could buy both for 20
so yeah I thought I would recommend
these because I thought that especially
that big one makes for a really well and a small one depending on what
sort of hamper size and products you're using
but they make for a really nice hamper size and
then not only that but then a basket that they can
then keep afterwards i actually think this
is probably one of my favorite ideas
of the whole video to pay for a cleaner to visit
The house, I feel like you need to be gifting
this to a certain type of person that's not going
to get offended that you're thinking, all right,
so what are you saying about my house? Is it dirty?
No, it's a helping hand.
And what a luxury to someone that doesn't already have a cleaner
to have a team come in and do a full deep house clean for them,
or even just pay for a cleaner
to come for an hour to help them out.
But yeah, you have to be close to them.
I feel like you're buying that for and then this is actually
my final gift idea and one that I thought again would be suited
to the garden lover. So I suppose could be for him or for her,
but I think it's quite pretty. So that's why I was thinking more
to include it in the for her gift guide for today.
RHS, they do this calendar, but it's plantable.
I think that's a genius idea especially as it's kind
of like suited to the time of the year as
well and it's not that you get like a packet
of seeds I believe it's the paper that you actually
can plant that has the seeds already infused within it
and I think they're only about 15
pounds as well so quite affordable
and I thought that was such a genius way to gift some flowering
Getting some seeds.
So yeah, I thought I would recommend that as my last
and final gift in my gift guide
for her video.
I hope you got some good inspo and some ideas from today's video.
Do let me know any other suggestions
that you might have in the comments below.
Of course, if you are new to my channel this year
and haven't seen that I have done these
videos previously, I do them every single year.
There are loads of videos to go back and binge,
get that pen and paper out, get some ideas jotted down.
I try not to repeat ideas each year
so that there will be loads more suggestions backdated
if you wanted to go and check them out.
But otherwise, thank you so much for watching today's video.
Stay tuned for my next one coming up,
which will be gift guide for him.
And I hope you have a lovely rest of your day.
So I'll see you guys in my next one.
Bye guys.
