Over the past couple of months, I have been drafting Lilinha Angel’s World Christmas Feature and looking around for the Top Festive Food and Drink, and gifts for the ladies in Top Gifts for Her, gents and children.
Lilinha Angel’s World Christmas Feature
Christmas Gift Guide: Top Gifts for Him
Whether the special man in your life prefers hoodies to keep him warm, yummy food to keep his belly full, comfortable bedding for lads’ weekends away or gorgeous photos to remind him of loved ones, you will find a special gift for him. Hubby has been trying and testing the gifts in the Christmas Gift Guide and those are the Top Gifts for Him that he recommends in our Christmas Gift Guide 2013.
Collage Canvas Print
Photobox offers a range of personalised gifts, helping people create memories and keep them alive through photobooks, cards, wall decor, mugs, t-shirts and more. There is a new brand new product, Collage Canvas Print in which you can bring your favourite photos together on a high quality, truly elegant canvas print.
We ordered a Collage Canvas Print, and it was extremely easy to select our chosen photos and place an order. They are available in Classic Canvas and Canvas Light, in rectangular and square format, you have the option to wrap photo around the edges and customise your collage photo print by adding as many photos or text boxes as you wish. We love our Collage Print Canvas, featuring little man’ special moments from his birth to the day he started school, it is proudly displayed in our living room. You are recommended to order by 12th December for guaranteed Christmas delivery.
Wave Native Signature Hoodie
Wave Native Signature Hoodie (RRP £39.99) is an ethically produced heavyweight hoddie from Wave Native, one of the newest, independent surfwear clothing companies in the UK. Hubby was sent this hoodie to try, it is well made and has twin needle stitching detailing, three panel double fabric hood and thumbholes in the cuff. It is perfect if you are a music lover, as it has a hidden MP3/phone pocket inside the kangaroo pouch pocket with small opening for earphone cord feed, so you can listen to your favourite tunes while keeping warm.
At the back of the hoodie, you will find Wave Native’ slogan “In the surf we’re all tribe”. Whether the special man in your life is a surfer, kite boarder, windsurfer, skateboarder or just an extreme sport enthusiast looking for something different from the usual surfwear, Wave Native will make them stand out from the crowd yet blend in with the tribe.
John Cotton Christmas Bed Bundle
John Cotton Christmas Bed Bundle (from RRP £14.99) has everything you need for a good night’ sleep away from home. Whether you are going away for a lads weekend or giving up your bed for the in-laws over the festive period, you will be very comfortable with the Christmas Bed Bundle. It contains a 13.5 tog duvet, available in single, double or king size, pillow, mattress protector and pillow protector.
Hubby loves his bed bundle, it is the same great quality as the other John Cotton products. It will keep him warm and cosy on his next holiday with the boys, much more comfortable than a sleeping bag. Each Christmas Bed Bundle is encased in a handy storage bag to easily pack away the bedding after use. John Cotton Christmas Bed Bundle is available exclusively at Argos for half price until 24th December, £14.99 for single, £19.99 for double and £24.99 for king size set.
