    Our Founder’s Gift Guide

    November 8, 2024

    We know how important it is to pick out gifts that feel meaningful whether it’s for a loved one, friend, or work colleague.  For the first of our Gift Guides, we asked our Founder for her personal favourites to help you navigate the festive season with ease and style.   From timeless pieces to vintage finds and unique home accessories, Lisa has handpicked gifts to suit every personality.

    Lisa’s Top Picks

    Essential Oils Amber Candle No 2

    “My first go to has to be our new Essential Oils Candle Collection.  I’m so thrilled to have finally developed these gorgeous candles, particularly as we hand pour all of them here in Sussex.  Made with natural soy and rapeseed waxes and nothing but the purest essential oils, these will fill your space with the most relaxing aromatherapy scents and I challenge anyone not to be delighted with one of these under the tree!

    Gift Guide

    Vintage Elm Washboard No 1

    “I think a really unique item makes gifting feel meaningful and personal, and so our collection of Vintage Accessories would always be my first port of call.  I have absolutely loved the gorgeous washboards we have featured in our collection this season.  Crafted from reclaimed wood, these versatile pieces make exceptional serving platters and styling boards, and they also serve as stunning wall features.”

    Gift Guide

    Black Iron Candlestick

    “I always find that candles are a great gift for the season.  Whether it’s a scented candle, dinner candles or candlesticks, they create atmosphere in a stylish and subtle way.   These Black Iron Candlesticks have already made their way into my home and they’re an item I’ll be using all year round.”

    Gift Guide

    The Meraki Range

    “My go-to for stocking fillers and Secret Santa’s, our Meraki Toiletries range are always welcome gifts.  Not only are they a stylish addition to the Kitchen or Bathroom, but the scents are to die for and I love receiving gifts that give me a reason to stop, unwind and pamper.  The Gift Sets come in pretty packaging for that extra touch.”

    Gift Guide
    Woven Bala Baskets

    “Beautiful and functional!  Functional gifts may be controversial, but there is something about receiving something that you know you’ll get lots of use out of.  Our Bala Baskets are new to the collection and I love the beautiful woven detailing and the warm colours of the natural rattan.  These would be perfect for hiding clutter, storing throws or cushions, or even logs by the fire.”

    Marble Gifts

    Marble Kitchen Accessories

    “Marble was a huge source of inspiration for me when sourcing for this seasons collection.  It has such a timeless feel and adds a touch of elegance to any space.  Our marble kitchen accessories would make a wonderful gift for the foodies in your life, from our Marble Salt Bowl and Round Marble Board pictured here, to the serving boards, soap dishes and candlesticks also included in the collection.”

    “The final touch for me has to be the gift wrap and presentation.  I do love a faff when it comes to creating pretty parcels like these so I’ll be grabbing our Hazel Flores Gift Wrap and some Mocha Ribbons and getting creative.”

    Happy shopping! x
