OTHER LAST MINUTE STOCKING-FILLERS GIFT GUIDE! £10 AND UNDER X

Hedeghog Hottie from Dorothy Perkins.

Welcome to the last of three gift guides I've posted the last few days! For anyone leaving it to the very last minute, here are some gifts which are under £10.00 and make for lovely stocking fillers!


Working in OUTFIT, I get to see so many cosy looking pyjamas, fluffy socks and other comfort gifts. One of my favourite things in stock at this time of year is the 'Hotties" from DOROTHY PERKINS which are like water-bottles except you warm them up in the microwave! 

My favourite one this year is the adorable hedgehog with ice-skates and a scarf on which is lavender scented but there are so many more - unicorns, owls, dachshunds (sausage dogs) etc. They are currently £9.00 (£7.20 at the moment). I received one of these a couple of years ago and I love it!

They also have plenty of fluffy, christmassy socks in different packaging. One is the "Navy Shammy socks in a Bauble" for £5.00 (£3.75 at the moment) and another is the "Red Fairisle Sock Stocking" for £7.00 (£4.90 at the moment). Socks are always the perfect stocking fillers. 
Theres lots of discounts on and 48% off selected lines at Dorothy Perkins for 48 hours so get the discount whilst you can!

Birth Stone Necklace from TOPSHOP.
Birth Stone Bracelet from TOPSHOP.
TOPSHOP have the prettiest pieces of jewellery in at the moment! I particularly like the birth-stone range they have. They have the birthstone necklaces for £7.50 and the birthstone bracelets for £6.50 for all birth months. For someone who likes more delicate pieces of jewellery, these are lovely little gifts. 


Another gift that I think makes for a wonderful stocking filler as well as being very popular recently is an art-therapy colouring book. I have a couple of these myself! My favourites being the "Art therapy, Anti-stress Colouring Book" which can be purchased on THE WORKS website for £6.00 and the "Mindfulness Colouring Book" which can be purchased on AMAZON for £3.95. This would be a particularly nice gift for someone who works really hard throughout the year. Do not underestimate them as "childish"! They can actually be really calming and enjoyable and I'm sure many people would like to try them but may not feel the need to purchase one themselves. You could also pair them with a nice set of colouring pens too!


Happy Box.
When I'm struggling to find a nice, more personalised present I always turn to notonthehighstreet for gifts or even just inspiration to make my own gifts. There are literally so many lovely presents on there which you can personalise or buy as they are and, although some pieces are expensive, I'd always suggest having a look just to see what lovely ideas people have came up with which you can then do your own version of or search for elsewhere.

One little gift I found on notonthehighstreet was a "happy box" memories diary box for £9.95. It includes a lovely little box with 40 illustrated blank cards for a person to write on and post into the box - the idea of this is to write down and keep any happy memories to look back on in the future. The same person also sells a "worry box" worry diary box for £9.95 also. This is such a thoughtful gift for anyone who may stress a lot at work or university or college etc and I think giving this to somebody shows how much you care about them. On the back of this box it states:


Worry Box.
 "Don't fill your head up with worries, fill this box up instead. Every time you feel worried about something, write it down onto a little card and post it into the top. Once your worry is in the box, your mind will be free to concentrate on the wonderful things in life. As time passes you will realise that not all worries are worth worrying about after all"

How lovely is that?

The seller also has the boxes including an 18th/21st birthday "Wishes and Wisdom box", a non-christmas version of the "happy box", a baby shower "Wishes and Wisdom box", New baby's "First Memories box" and a wedding "wishes and Wisdom box". You can also buy the happy box and the worry box as a bundle for £16.95. A lovely present to consider for lots of different occasions!


I hope the three gift guides I have posted have been helpful and I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas, thank you for reading!
