My DH has asked what I'd like for Christmas and I don't know what to suggest. I'm not over materialistic, I like to buy pre owned and I try to think about the environment. Budget about £100. I'd love some suggestions if anyone has any

Just here to bump this for you, OP. And also - I'm asking for theatre tokens for Christmas. Always want to go and am put off by the cost. I figure if I have some money to spend on tickets I'll actually go. Plus it will be a nice thing to look forward to. Plus no extra clutter in the house.

Handbag and a matching woolly scarf would be my treats..

Maybe a voucher for the two of you to go out for dinner, alone? I always feel like it's too much of a faff to organise time without the kids but if I get a dinner out gift, I just have such a good time and remember why I like him!

Or something useful. I'd really like a second hand whatnot for putting plants on. Don't really care what it looks like. Or a nice pottery vase - my glass one is chipped but pottery ones look lovely empty or full.

Maybe vouchers for an antique shop or one of those vintage shops. Good excuse for an afternoon browsing and some lunch too ;)

A large Liberty silk scarf. So warm and soft around your neck under a coat, a real touch of luxury on a cold day, will last for years and years.

I'm asking for stuff for my hobby - I don't usually spend money on myself so sending him links to different hobby stuff, he can decide how much to spend!

A voucher for a hairdresser?

Something for the garden? I’m a bit like you but I would like new garden bits eg a purple (fave colour) kneeler or new tools etc. My DH hates buying presents so needs very specific ‘hints’…
I also want some new earrings..
