Christmas Gift Guide 2020
Christmas Gift Guide 2020
This year more than ever before we are watching the budget. Many of you, like me, have pledged to support independent businesses this Christmas. Showing you care for someone isn’t about how much you spend - it’s about taking the time to choose something with that person in mind.
£10 and Under
Tote Bags
In a bid to use less plastic, many of us are using reusable bags and now you can give the gift of a hand printed bag with strong handles that can be use over and over again. Fill it with goodies or gift it as it is for only £8.
Sketchbooks
There are 3 designs to choose from - the cute black baby penguin (£3) and the golden dragonfly or flamingo (£4). A5 with hand printed Kraft paper covers, they are filled with cartridge paper pages - perfect for sketching or keeping notes.
Frame a Card
If you want to give a print, but you’re on a tight budget then why not buy a hand printed card and frame it? You get a beautiful art piece at a fraction of the price. I use Factory Framing Centre in the Ouseburn valley - click here for a link.
£20 and Under
Press Print Kit
Do you know someone who’d like to learn a new skill? Then this is the gift for them. For £15 you get 4 print blocks, 2 colourful ink pads and 8 pieces of paper with clear step by step instructions designed for beginners.
Mini Paw Print
For all those dog lovers out there, the mini paw print is ideal. You can even customise the background wash with their favourite colour and choose a frame to suit their decor. Unframed for £10 and framed for £15.
Mug Bundle
Everybody loves a mug, right? And it doesn’t get cuter than one with a baby penguin on. But wait…this one is filled with candy canes! Yummy. £15
£30 and Under
Cosmetics Bags
With so many beautiful prints to choose from, these bags are difficult to resist. To compliment the prints, the bags feature colour pop linings and chunky zips. The are so versatile that they work well as a cosmetics bag, travel toiletries bag or pencil case (they fit around 56 pens inside). Just £25
Coin Purses
With all the choice of the cosmetics bags but in a more compact size, these purses are great for holding money, credit cards or you make up essentials. Only £21
Monochrome Orca Print
Orcas are such amazing creatures and any nature lover would adore this print. For only £30, you get a limited edition original print that would go in any room. It looks particularly stunning in this bathroom setting (a photo from a customer).
£50 and Under
Golden Giraffe
Gold anything shouts special but the oil based metallic gold ink that I use it particularly luxurious. You will see a few different metallic prints across my collections but this one seems to have found a special place in customers’ hearts. £45
Patchwork Poppy
Made up of 6 different blocks, this print evokes memories of wildflower meadows and reminds me of my Mum, whose favourite flower is the poppy.Whoever said red and green should never be seen didn’t see this beauty. Only £45 unmounted
Ladybird Rainbow
This is rainbows my way! I love my mini ladybird block and wanted to explore rainbows using this delicately carve block. Printed in oil based inks, the colour will stay true for many years to come. Gift this print for only £45.
Blowing the Budget
Hibiscus
There are currently two colour options with the hibiscus print - hot pink and dusky purple. There will be more in the future but they are extremely limited editions. Printed in 5 layers of ink, they are a total labour of love. From £120
Metallic Honey Bees
The Yellow Honey Bee was one of the most popular prints that I did and as such are sold out. However, now you can grab them in gold, silver and copper (only 5 of each) for only £90. Pure luxury will ooze from your walls.
Elegant Peacock
The elegant peacock is one of my absolute favourites. The deep blues and greens are an amazing combination and the expression on the peacock’s face is one of total confidence. This stunner can be yours from £85 (unmounted).
