LAST MINUTE CHRISTMAS IDEAS

Everyone has that friend or family member who is IMPOSSIBLE to buy for at Christmas time – they have everything they need, their hobbies don’t entail added extras and they don’t want for anything. This year, when you’re stuck for ideas look no further than kindredgifts.com.au. The range of unique presents is diverse and ingenious and who couldn’t love a present which is as ethical as it is beautiful?

Best friends: they’re the closest people to us, the family we choose for ourselves and yet, come Christmas, they couldn’t be more mystifying!

For those of us with a fashionista for a best friend, the Dolly Rockers Black And White Jewelled Necklace is a perfect fit. It’ll suit all those post-Christmas/pre-New Year parties, is incredibly chic and will help anyone who is worth their own weight in designer shoes to stay one step ahead in the fashion game!

For friends who prefer their jewels dainty, discreet and elegant, you can opt for one of the handmade necklaces from Dogeared Jewellery. Meaningful gifts with heart, the sweet range helps to let your friend know just how much she means to you. The ‘Pearls of’ range of delicate pearl necklaces are a popular choice, available in options including Pearls of Love, Pearls of Friendship, Pearls of Success and Pearls of Inspiration. One for every occasion!

Little Sister: Anyone who comes into contact with a little girl these days is used to being bombarded with statistics about Bratz or Barbie Dolls, but if you’re trying to instil some real values in your little sister, why not buy her a funky Tiger Tribe Beach Villa or Dolls House Boxset? These beautifully designed and portable sets are cute, not classless. The sets encourage creativity, not Hollywood, and will actually be something that she can pass down to her own children, not thrown out or given away as soon as the trend is over! (Alternatively, if you’re after something special for your little brother, then Tiger Tribe also offers these sustainably produced Boxsets in fun Airport, Car or Train options too!).

Your boss: Want to buy your boss a Christmas present without seeming like you’re shamelessly sucking up (all the while secretly hoping it earns you the promotion you have been lusting after)??

Oliveria Peace With Earth Ceramic Olive Oil Decanter - Limited Black Edition has a sleek design and playful exterior which will be the perfect accompaniment to any kitchen. What’s more, every decanter sold will result in a portion of the profits being donated to the Fifteen Foundation – making your purchase even more generous!

Or if your boss is a frequent traveller, what about a funky bamboo travel clock or calculator from French design brand Lexon? Lexon’s Safe Travel Clock or Safe Calculator (both made from eco friendly bamboo) are stylish office or travel gifts that are not only useful, but also boast super cool design.

Secret Santa: Did you get someone in your Secret Santa that you just don’t know what to buy for?? Is it that guy that sits by the printer, the one you say hello to every day but whose name you have no idea about? Well what about a Resource Revival Bicycle Chain Bottle Opener - Blue? It’s practical and novel as well as strong enough to deal with any bottle it’s faced with. So even if you can’t remember the recipient’s name, he will certainly remember yours!

Or if you’re looking for something cheap and cheerful for a female Secret Santa recipient, then what about the funky new Wear Your Music range of bracelets? Available in a slew of fun colours, from Backstage Black to Punk Pink, Totally Teal and Rock Star Red, the bracelets are all made from guitar strings, and the perfect gift idea for any music or fashion lover!
