I’m now 25 and ‘santa’ still brings me a christmas stocking every year, I’ve always received a satsuma in mine as well as a few other bits (did anyone else always used to get a satsuma in theirs too?). I have another Christmas gift guide but this time it’s all about stocking fillers under £10, there are some great ideas if you’re on a budget and there’s a variety of different items. Hopefully this will give you some inspiration and you’re no longer stuck for ideas if you’re unsure what to buy someone.
These cosmetic cases are from a brand called Anorak which you can buy on Amara which has so many lovely gift ideas! The rabbit and hedgehog prints are adorable and they’re made from a waterproof coated cotton canvas. It’s the perfect size to fit everything that you would want to take with you and they’re gorgeous unique designs with fun bright colours. They have a few different products with these designs on and they’re all beautiful and great quality.
I can’t get over how incredible this travel mug is, it’s covered in unicorns, rainbows and is beautiful! I take this with me on car journeys and to work as it brightens up my day, especially my mornings. It’s super lightweight and has a pink hard rubber lid which screws on firmly. It’s honestly the cutest travel mug I have ever seen and it makes my cups of tea that little bit more magical. It’s from Prezzybox which is the complete online gift solution, they sell a wide range of gifts and you can find something for everyone.
Dot Creates is a quirky stationary and gift store which is a small independent business that is every bloggers dream. They sell a range of different stationary items from notebooks, to prints and planners. This is the Blog Planner which is perfect for getting organised and planning blog posts, I’ve been using this recently and it has been helping me keep up to date. There’s a to-do checklist at the bottom which is handy and easy to keep track whether your posts are almost completed or not.. There are 50 pages so more than enough to do lots of planning especially if you’re wanting to get more organised for the new year, I think this would make a lovely gift for a blogger.
Soap is a great stocking filler and this Valley Mill Orange & Cinnamon soap smells incredible. It’s a warming scent and is handmade in their workshop in Wales. It has natural cleansing and antiseptic properties and is very gentle, it also contains lots of nourishing ingredients such as mango butter and coconut oil. It creates a lovely soft lather and the scent is long lasting on your skin. If you haven’t heard of Valley Mill before they create a range of natural products including candles, soap and welsh slate products. If you’re looking for a company that sells natural products then check them out.
I’ve loved Yankee Candles for years and this set of five votive candles is the perfect stocking filler gift. It’s a great way for someone to try out their Holiday Party inspired scents including: Star Anise & Orange, Festive Cocktail, All is Bright, Red Apple Wreath and Macaron Treats. When I light these the scent always fills up the room and candles are even more lovely around this time of year when the evenings are dark and cold.
This is the perfect gift for any Nutella lover, it’s a Nutella Recipe Book and there’s everything from cheesecakes to macaroons and is a great way to discover new ways to cook with Nutella and enjoy delicious recipes. There are 30 recipes and everything looks delicious, I know so many people who would love this as a gift for Christmas. This is from The Present Finder which is the home of unusual and unique presents, you can find something for everyone and they have a wide range of different products. The Christmas gift section of their website is sorted into lots of different categories so if you’re unsure what to get someone it’s an easy way to have a browse through their products.
Another gift from The Present Finder is The Gormet Chocolate Pizza which is for all the chocolate lovers out there. It’s such a unique idea and is a chocolate pizza slice topped with chunks of chocolate brownie cookie, vanilla fudge pieces and sprinkled with white chocolate curls. It’s incredibly moreish and is a great alternative to the chocolate that’s released every year for Christmas as it’s quirky and fun as well as delicious.
An idea I hadn’t previously thought about as a gift idea is popcorn, more specifically these delicious flavours from Popcorn Shed who are quite a new company specialising in gourmet popcorn. They have different flavours such as Salted Caramel, Rich Chocolate and Pecan Pie which is my favourite out of them all. The popcorn is fluffy and slightly crunchy, not that type of hard crunchy just slightly which I love as it doesn’t get all stuck in your teeth. I think these would make such great stocking fillers and they’re packaged lovely, it’s very different to the bags that are normally on the shelves.
Bomb Cosmetics is a company I have completely fallen in love with and I wanted to share a few stocking filler ideas from them starting with candles. They’ve released some beautifully scented candles for Christmas including Hot Toddy, Snowberry Cupcakes and Gingerbread Cookies which is a piped candle that looks incredible. The scent fills up the room and they’re lovely to light in the evening, you really can’t go wrong with candles as gifts this christmas especially when they’re also beautifully presented.
A few other products from Bomb Cosmetics are these Christmas bath bombs which look and smell incredible. When you drop these into your bath they fizz and release a beautiful scent and essential oils. There is a wide variety of scents from warming cinnamon, grapefruit & bergamot, frankincense & myrrh, and sweet scents. I love to take baths to have some me time and relax, I don’t know anyone who wouldn’t love to receive these and they’re great to give someone as they can take some time for themselves to unwind especially with it being so busy around Christmas
They’re all of my stocking fillers under £10, I hope you found some great ideas and they also make great gifts for those on a budget. Christmas is such an expensive time of year so these would all make such lovely gifts that would put a smile on someones face whilst not having to spend too much.
