Last year you probably swore to be more organised but before you know it Christmas will be upon us. (Sorry!)
Since we jumped into October, you can’t miss the signs that the season of giving and glitter is only a few weeks away. Supermarkets already have mince pies on and beauty gift packs the shelves and it’s not even Halloween!
That being said, we all want to avoid that last minute panicked dash that just results in buying presents “that will do” rather than something that speaks of our love and appreciation for a person.
A place to start is making a list of the hobbies and interests of the person at hand. We’ve pooled our Christmas organisers from the last few years come up with some ideas that may spark some inspiration.

And don’t forget, our Oh So clever team have come up with a few Christmas products that might help. Check out our gift tags and our 5 year Christmas organiser and never be stuck for a recipe or present again.
Jay Disco Biscuit Set – John Lewis
This is the ideal gift for a baking enthusiast with plenty of personality. The set includes one cookie cutter, which can be arranged into multiple disco poses, to create a variety of dancing gingerbread men.
Scientific Spice Rack – notonthehighstreet.com
This would be a fun gift for anyone who is moving into a new home. Of course, it also goes without saying that this spice rack was made for any science nerd who also enjoy cooking.
Waxed Cheese Papers – Lakeland
Just like you get when you buy cheese from an old-fashioned cheesemonger, these waxed papers are perfect for wrapping home-made cheeses for gifting, storage or picnics, and they have a practical function too as the wax coating keeps your cheese from drying out.
Fold-up Apron – Suck UK
With this handy apron, you needn’t get the cook books dirty and stained, just look down and you will see everything you need – numeric conversions, cooking times for vegetables, roasting times for birds, freezing instructions, defrosting times, a cooking glossary and even more.
Milkshake/Slushy Maker – Zoku
Simple to use, the frozen inner core is removed from the freezer and placed into the outer sleeve. Then, pour in your chosen ingredients and watch it freeze before your eyes.
