Hi everyone,
It’s hard to believe but by the end of the week December will have come around so the time to start planning Christmas presents is now. I personally love present shopping but I know sometimes coming up with ideas can be difficult. Choosing gifts for people can become stressful, especially if you are not sure where to start. With that being said, even if you start off with little novelty gifts such as face socksor personalized mousemats, this could be your starting point. You don’t have to start with the main gifts yet, especially if you’ve left yourself enough time. With this being said, it’s the thought that counts and it is completely up to you what you buy people for Christmas. Additoinally, I have put together a gift guide from one of my favourite Irish websites My Shining Armour – they carry the most beautiful stationary, jewellery and interior pieces that would leave anyone unwrapping happy 😊
I am also going to have a look at more information about personalised gifts as I really like the idea of giving someone something personalised to them, it makes it just that little bit more special.
See my picks below 😊
I hope it helps with the beginning of shopping season,

Marble Selotape Dispenser / Marble Stapler / Marble Pencil Holder / Marble Desk Tray
These marble desk pieces speak for themselves – how PRETTY are they?!

Marble Stapler / Marble Pencil Holder

Bando 2017 Diary / Alphabet “L” Mug / “L” Candle
An essential purchase at the beginning of any year. A pretty diary with stickers is the ultimate treat at the start of a new year. I know my sisters would love a diary as pretty as this.
Personalised anything is always extra special at Christmas. Here you can see my ‘L’ mug and ‘L’ candle which are both available from MyShiningArmour.com – these would be the perfect gift for a friend or colleague.




Cinema Lightbox / Alphabet Candle
Cinema lightboxes are everywhere this year. Another personalised gift that would be the perfect surprise. You could even write a little message in it before wrapping 😉
Another idea I have just come up with for next year is Mugs Photo Personnalisés as I think they are also such a brilliant idea!

Copper Pineapple / Ceramic Copper Pineapple Dish
Pineapples and copper/rosegold – two of my favourite things. These cute little pieces would dress up any room!

Til the season to wear statement jewellery. I’ve picked a few of my favourites from the website. Any girl would be happy with these 😊

Silver & Pearl Statement Earrings

Thermal “But First Coffee” Mug
Another cute coffee mug and more marble. Yes, there is a theme here. Us girls are very simple to buy for really 😊



Sarsi Layered Necklace / Anna Stud Earrings
A delicate, rosegold necklace is the perfect present for the girl who prefers a more understated look. You can get this one personalised with an initial too.

Hopefully these picks will give you a few ideas to get you started on your Christmas shopping 😊
Let me know if you liked this post and I’ll do my best to do a few more like it,
