Check this offer by Studio.co.uk, they sell some really good well priced products for him, her and the children in your life too and you can get gifts personalised aswell.  

There are more offers to come, so go and check out Studio now. 

If you like making DIY gifts or have always wanted to make your own gifts for Christmas then there is no other best time to start then now.

I always get really inspired this time of year, especially when it comes to presents and this year is now exception. Check out Kerry Whelpdale Youtube channel who does a lot of DIY and meal idea videos. See her DIY video she did from items she bought from Poundland. 

I have bought some items myself this year from Poundland, and just to add a disclaimer, I am not sponsored by Poundland in anyway, I just love their items. They have some really nice gifts and decorations, so go and check them out. 

The other store I have been looking at which I am an affiliate for see my last video I did regarding Gifts from Studio is Studio.co.uk they do have some real nice items like for example a Tote bag, which comes with a personalised Pen for just £9.99, and you can spread the cost and pay later.

I also look at Amazon as they do some great items too, I have already in my basket some items for my husband and step dad, ready to buy, just check delivery as some items may come from overseas, if they are a non UK retailer. 
​Don't forget that many items sold on Amazon are from non retailers but individual sellers. 

I also love to shop on Very whom I have an account with, and have some real nice items for her. I bought my mum for her birthday a lovely black Waterfall Cardigan or why those favourite women in your life a new  handbag and don't worry if you have missed out on Black Friday as most retailers will tend to have offers through the Christmas period, as they want you to buy from their store. 

So lets get shopping and make or buy those wonderful gifts.

I love a bit of gift wrapping hack that I came across this video by Hermione Chantal it is Gift Wrapping Hacks you need to try this Christmas /DIY Wrapping.

If you are doing gift this year, then it is important to set a budget and to try out new ways of buying gifts. Here is a video by Jordan Paige Gift Giving Hacks. 

Disclaimer: The company advertised in this post I am an affiliate for, so any purchase made from my website, I will receive a small royalty for. 

With Black Friday coming fast approaching its time to lock up and bank those gifts you need. 

Check out Studio, who have a fantastic range of products from fashion, home and much more. 

Why not check out their clearance sale, and save up to 80% off. 

They even have items you can personalized, like Supersoft Robes for children and much more. 

Its that time of the year again where I have quite a few birthdays and then Christmas. 

Knowing what to buy someone can be tricky because you don't want to end up buying the same thing each year. 
 
I came across this video by Myka Stauffer who shows some DIY Dollartree gifts you can make. 

Making DIY gifts can be much more cost effective and you can give it that real personal touch. 

I like things that catch my eye and have seen some lovely jewelry on one of the market stalls in Epsom, lovely key pieces that won't go out of fashion, however you can find some nice pieces online too. 

I tend to shop at Very, Paperchase, Marks and Spencers, TK Maxx, New Look and Amazon. 

I will be adding more to this page as we get nearer to the festive season. 

Many thanks for reading,

This is the first of my Christmas gift guides giving you some ideas of what to buy the women and men in your life and I have found some great gift ideas. 

Scarves are a great gift for him and her. I found this beautiful scarf on Amazon for £1.34 so great price.  

Novelty socks are great fun gift and can been worn all year round when the nights are colder. I found these on Amazon for £2.66

Gift sets are a lovely gift again for him and her, why not personalize it by creating your own, just pick the toiletries you know they love, buy a beauty/toiletry bag and put a gift set together of all their favourite products. 

I will post more as we move towards the festive season. 

Many thanks for reading,

Here is a new video, for my new Gift Ideas page. 

In this video I am showing you, how you can make your own Gift Selection boxes or bags, in this case. 

Great idea for the children in your life, giving it that personal touch and you can be in charge of what goes into them. 

Why not if your child wants to give these as gifts, get them involved in making them too. 

Hi All! So a new page for 2017. 

There is nothing more I love than giving gifts to the people I love and I try to be as creative, not giving the same gifts all year round. 

I try to have a theme so I give the similar present to people on their birthdays but give them that personal touch aswell. 

Here is my first these types for videos, for this year,  showing some Chocolate boxes I put together, I hope you enjoy!
