We’re living in strange times.  At the time of writing this post, at least16.6 million people are in some form of local lockdown in the UK, which equates to around one in four people. Lockdowns, although necessarily, are keeping friends and families apart. Times are tough. If you’re missing someone, or want to cheer them up, why not treat them to a personalised gift from our collection?Show someone you care… even if you can’t be there!


Since early 2020, COVID-19 has turned the world we live in upside down. We’ve spent more of the year living under restrictions than we have living freely, and it’s had a huge impact upon us all.  10pm curfews, no foregin holidays (unless you’re one of the lucky few that got away before travel restrictions came into play) and essentially, the end of our social lives as we know them.  On top of that, the country is also on the brink of a mental health crisis, with anxiety, worries about money and loneliness having a huge impact upon the nation.


While in certain parts of the country groups of six are still allowed to meet, it’s not quite the same with social distancing now also a huge part of our daily lives.  So if you know someone who’s struggling during these turbulent times why not use some of the cash you’ve saved a holiday or those expensive coffees on the daily commute to treat them to something to show them you’re thinking of them?

Speaking of those expensive coffees, do you know someone who’s missing their daily mocha fix?  We stock arange of coffee cups that you can personalise.  While their at-home coffee might not quite be to barista standards, the cup will put a smile on their face every time they take a sip from it. 

Know someone whoreallyloves their holidays but hasn’t been able to get away this year? Oursolid oak photoframes are the perfect way to share special memories from happier times with those you love and give them the perfect pick me up.  It’ll show them how much you care, and also put a smile on their face thinking of times gone by. Why not pop in a photo from last years getaway? 

We also stock a range of personalised scented candles which make the perfect gift. Our‘with love’ candles are a great way to show someone you’re thinking of them during these troubled times and will also help them to relax and unwind.
