Posh adult "stocking" presents

[CurlewKate]

I need some posh small presents. 4 for men and 4 for women. Maybe 10/15 quid each? I want them to be a bit out of the ordinary-and something they won't want to recycle immediately. The recipients are between 23 and 28.Any ideas?

Do you use Bloom and wild?

I am a soap addict too!

If anyone is thinking of flower subscriptions, Arena Flowers are wonderful and you get absolutely tons of really lovely flowers every month. Also they have a big commitment to sustainability.

I keep thinking the thread is about posh hosiery and then remembering it is not. I used to get mine from Stockings HQ, but they've closed. Calzedonia is not quite the same https://www.calzedonia.com/uk/ -- but their fancy tights or socks or nightwear might not be bad gifts, if you're sure of the person's taste.

Might be a bit Wales-centric but these candles are genuinely good and the Gavin & Stacey range is fun: https://theoriginalwelshcandleco.com

I have spent a lifetime avoiding using the word NICE. Instilled it into my children as well.
I've told those that buy for me which is in fact just DH and DC that I just want a few small bits. Posh bar soap, bar shampoo, a new denman hairbrush and some specific flower seeds.

For 20 something sporty girls I have bought some microfibre quick dry towels
which come in a bag and have a pocket.
For DS (28) I have bought a subscription to Private Eye and for DS2 who has a new garden he is keen to fill but not much knowlege a Scott and Co hessian bag of 30 different seeds.

Same- beautiful high quality soap can be a great gift for the right recipient.

Ooh lovely- this is local to me too but I hadn't come across them.

Does anybody know anywhere that does NICE guest size soaps, ideally without a big delivery fee?

This soap is gorgeous.

How about http://www.highlandsoaps.com or https://uk.smnovella.com/?

I get mine from tk maxx. Usually loads, you can smell them, and they do the posh tins too.

Triple soap! I've never heard of it

Thank you. The Scottish place is far too expensive. TK Maxx only had big bars the last time I was in there, but I'll definitely look again.

There are such lovely things on this thread-than you all! Next week I am going to take myself to lunch at our lovely local, sit in front of the fire and do my shopping!

Oh, and these are lovely guest soaps https://chateaudusavon.com/products/cosavon-de-marseille-french-soap-passion-fruit-60g?variant=35097481019551&country=GB&currency=GBP&utmmedium=producttsync&utmsource=google&utmmcontent=sagorganic&utmmcampaign=sagorganic&utmmcampaign=gs-2018-11-14&utmsource=google&utmmmedium=smartcampaign&gaddsource=1&gbraid=0AAAAAC62Le7NNapsbDmM3iNEVQbCNhhXW&gclid=EAIaIQobChMItmilPDViQMVKYBQBh3x4ihoEAQYBCABEgJ9hfDD_BwE

I love those soaps and buy them occasionally as a treat. Never seen them in guest size before.

I've ordered the snowman lego figure someone linked above for my DS24. he loves Lego.

Great thread

Posted in wrong thread!

Whoever posted about the engraved Dior lip oils thank you!
I ordered late Tuesday evening and they arrived the following day, beautifully packaged!

What a fabulous way to do your Christmas shopping! I might copy this.

And me! Great idea 🎄

One year I wen to some charity shops, found pretty pots or glasses, bought cheap matches and put the matches in and used these Striker stickers to male pretty little match pots. They were a hit!

Me too - shall we all go on the same day?

There's another good thread I'll link to if I can find it - OP struggling with difficult-to-buy-for DH. The suggestions were more expensive, buy interesting.
