*Ad – Gifted. All opinions are my own.
Now I use the term “grown-ups” very lightly because if you are anything like me then you are a total kid at heart and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that at all! I usually have trouble thinking about what to get people for Christmas and as Mr Tutu and I are doing joint presents between us (argghhh so grown up and coupley!!!) I have double the amount to think about because I am definitely not just letting him loose on Christmas eve and hoping for the best. Thanks to putting together this gift guide I am actually pretty on top of my game and with just a few weeks left until the big day I only have 4 gifts left to get for us and then the wrapping and we are good to go. So here I am, sharing with you what I’ve got on my His and Hers, grown ups Christmas gift guide this year!
