Easter Gift Guide 2021

*Ad- Gifted. All opinions are my own.

Once again we’re all about to experience an Easter unlike our traditional ones of the past, where all the family gather together, squashed round the same table, enjoying more food than we probably should and each other’s company.

All this as well as trips out, Easter egg hunts and get togethers with friends for a coffee and a chin wag… we can both talk for Britain. However, just because it is different, it doesn’t need to be miserable as we can still enjoy the gifts brought by the Easter Bunny and be thankful for what we have.

Looking for an alternative to calorific chocolate eggs this Easter, yet a gift that still says, ‘you’re special’? ARRAN Sense of Scotland has the answer with its fresh, spring-inspired home fragrance products. The brand’s fresh and evocative spring fragrances include vibrant, Bergamot and Geranium and delicately, zesty Citrus and Cedarwood – both are brilliant for an indulgent Easter treat. A floral symphony combining notes of jasmine, tuberose and philadelphus for a delicate fragrance that will infuse homes with an essence of spring. Jasmine, similar to lavender, can be used to relieve stress and anxiety, helping the body to relax and unwind making this home fragrance perfect for relaxing spaces such as bedrooms or sunrooms. The perfect aroma to brighten up April showers.

Colouring pencil, water colour or wax crayon? The STABILO woody 3 in 1 makes the decision easy, because it can do it all. Young artists will be able to draw and paint to their hearts’ content.

They offer vibrant colour intensity and opacity and even work on dark paper. STABILO woody 3 in1 pencils are long lasting, as the large 10mm lead contains as much colour as eight standard colouring pencils. The STABILO woody is so versatile it can even complement the more mature artist’s toolkit.

 Rubies in the Rubble make condiments that save delicious ingredients that would usually be rejected by others in the supply chain (simply for being the wrong shape, size or surplus to demand)! Spring time is about new life, and they give new life to fruit and veg that would otherwise be wasted, turning them into chutneys and sauces. Their relish giftset features 3 of their best-selling chutneys, and every box saves 8 onions, 1 apple and 1 pear from going to waste. Each jar has information and facts about how ingredients are saved from going to waste- a great educational tool for children, teaching them the link between food waste and climate change.

Everyone’s always talking about free-range hens, but nobody ever says much about the eggs! So, you’ve got your eggs, fresh from the hen (or, more likely, straight from the shops) and you’ve got them back to your house, but what’s to stop them from rolling away, or sprouting legs and wondering off Looney Tunes style?! The Indoor Egg House is here to solve the problem. Sure, you may be sanctioning your shells, but look at it this way: they’re normally freezing in the fridge with nothing more than a cardboard box. With this new V.I.dippy egg treatment, they’ll be laughing all the way back to the henhouse! The house even comes with a place to store your egg cups, making it not just a place to store eggs, but a place to store eggs that also stores places to store eggs. How egg-centric!

Inspired by the success of tv baking and cooking shows, mad are proud to launch its vintage baking range of beauty gifts. Egg bath bombs, bath salts & the bake slice all designed to enjoy the baking experience but without any of the added calories.

Steiff Flopsy Bunny is part of the Peter Rabbit stories written by the author Beatrix Potter.

She is gently made from the finest cinnamon mohair highlighted with cream toes, tummy and face and is 3-way jointed (which means you can move her arms and head).
Her face is made with long ears, shiny black eyes and hand embroidered nose with white whiskers.
And to keep her smart she is wearing a little two tone waistcoat.

Flopsy Bunny is friends with Peter and helps throwing endless parties full of fruits, vegetables and funny and happy stories about the whole family.
