I know a lot of people have finished (or nearly finished) their Christmas shopping but I thought i'd just share a couple of little Secret Santa gift ideas as I know sometimes you just need a bit of inspiration! I've been looking for a few things for a friends Secret Santa present and I wanted to couple of smaller presents that I knew she'd like rather than one big present. I had a budget of £15 and we weren't allowed to buy any bath sets as everyone gets them at Christmas!
The first part of my Secret Santa present is from Topshop. I picked up this owl mug for £6 which I thought wasn't too expensive and it comes in a nice little box too. I really like the design of it as I know my friend quite likes her owl necklace and it says 'I Love Topshop' on the bottom which is quite cute. There are about four different designs in total which you can see on the Topshop website.
The next thing I bought was this little taupe/nude purse which is from Primark. I wasn't planning on buying anything as a gift when I was in there but I fell in love with the purse as it looks so much more expensive than the £2 I paid for it! I was considering keeping it for myself but I think i'll go back and get one if I get chance.
The final thing I bought were these vintage inspired photo frames from Boots. They come in a pack of two for £10 but I thought it would be nicer if I just gave her one and put a photo of us in it.
In total I spent £13 which left me just under my budget so i'll probably add some chocolates to make it up to £15. I hope this gave you some inspiration but if not there are more Secret Santa Gift Ideas Under £10 on my blog!
What brilliant ideas! The mug is so, so cute and that purse is so lovely-and Primark too! Baaargain!

that owl mug is so so so cute! i may have to invest in one :D xo
ReplyDeleteThis all makes such a lovely Secret Santa gift! I'm totally with you about receiving bath sets for Christmas, they seem to be the default Christmas present of choice. Love the mug and purse, can't believe it was Primark! xx
ReplyDeleteI adore the mug, I had no idea Topshop sold mugs. The purse is equally cute. And those frames I have had my eye on in Boots, but I am desperately holding out until the sales. I think it’s a lovely idea to put a picture in of you and your friend. So much more personal and all in all a perfect Secret Santa present xx
ReplyDeleteLovely presents (:!xxx
ReplyDeletethat purse is so cute, and even cuter at £2!
