What do you buy the person who has everything? Well, I can
think of a thing or two...
Welcome to my weekly gift-guide; I’m thrilled to be sharing a selection of
creative, quirky and downright awesome gifts with you here on Rachael’s blog.
This week’s guide is for the nature lovers.
It’s spring! Supposedly. Unfortunately this weather we’ve been
having isn’t exactly inspiring impromptu BBQ’s and Ultimate Frisbee tournaments.
In defiance of the wet and cold, I’ve scoured the internet for gorgeous gifts designed to cheer up any rainy day. Evocative of nature and all things
outdoors, these gifts are perfect for spring birthdays, weddings and well...just
about any special occasion.
If we think positive,
perhaps the sun will eventually come out...
This
woodland teapot by ceramics designer
Alison Appleton takes my breath away. Don't you just love that flash of green and the raw wood handle? Perfection.
Cake tins for the discerning baker in your life. This trio features an otter, owl and wiley fox. Fill 'em with cake for the best gift ever (in my humble opinion). Designed by
Tom Frost for
Magpie.
This
elegant hair comb is a thoughtful gift for an outdoorsy bride. Available from
Red Truck Designs on Etsy.
I don’t have a garden so I don’t get to make mudpies and dig
holes, but you can bet your bottom dollar that if I did, I’d be tooling up with
these pretties by Orla Kiely. Get the
trowel and
fork at John Lewis.
Keep your bright ideas in order with a
frolicking foal notebook or two...Designed by the aptly named
Ohh Deer studio.
This is the pick of the bunch (groan). Home-brewing has become a popular hobby in these straitened times, now wine connoisseurs can join in the fun with this amazing
grapevine gift set.
I hope you enjoyed today's offerings - and I'm sorry (not sorry) about the awful puns. Leonie x
