New Year

Happy New year from all of us at Animal Gifts. I really hope you’ve all had a lovely festive period and start to 2023. So far we have been really merrily trotting along into the new year. As I write this I’m sitting by the fire with the Head of FR (Feline Resources) Margot. Having a lovely cup of tea from one of our Roy Kirkham Breakfast Cups and Saucers, I really love these cups, they’re that perfect mix of delicate and dainty, but also big enough to have a proper cup of tea in them.

January is a difficult time for so many of us, with the darker mornings and evenings, and the bitter cold snap that we are going through here at the moment. Though that is perfect for all the night owls out there. If you have a night owl with a birthday coming up, our owl vases are the perfect gift. But if the dark is getting you down, never fear, evoke much sunnier climes with this koala vase. You might not be in the Australian sun, but what’s the harm in bringing one of Australia’s cutest citizens into your home? If you are gifting any of your purchases, check out our unique and beautiful gift wrap from Amelia Florence. 

I find that the winter months are the perfect time to snuggle up with a book, but me being me I find myself reading several books at the same time. So if you are like me it might be worth picking up a few of our delightful bookmarks so that you never lose your place in the story ever again. Not only that, I find that these bookmarks are an excellent way to brighten commutes and might spark one of those rare but lovely phenomenons, the conversation with a stranger on a train. Nothing brings me more joy in these winter months than through brief moments of connection as you go about your daily life.

   

Maybe like me, you have set a new years resolution to write more, whether that be journaling, blogs or letter writing. I find sprucing up my writing space at the beginning of the year really helps with that, our stationary section has really helped there. Our range of paperweights has made my desk a much nicer place to be, maybe it can do the same for you.  

Looking forward to spring, if you’re looking for inspiration for your garden do cast your eye over our garden section, it might be the place you find the piece that you can build your garden around, or perfect the vision you already have for your garden. 

Hanging basket brackets are one of our best sellers we have many designs available.

Until next time, stay safe, and happy shopping, 

Milly

Hi everyone sorry for being so absent recently as we have been having technical issues however I am back to blog and ready as ever.

Oh how the time goes so quickly it is now autumn and the leaves have fallen from the trees creating a sea of varying browns on our lawn here at Animal Gifts HQ.

I am so excited for the Christmas rush as we are already getting in the Christmas spirit!

If you are looking for the perfect gift we have your back as my mum – Karen Jane has discovered she can draw and I am so proud of how her work has turned out, she is offering commissions on the website in the navigation bar. However if you would love a drawing done please get in touch, personally I think a drawing of a pet or favourite flower would make a loved one extremely happy.

Karen Jane Art –

Marching Through May

‘March winds and April showers, bring forth the May flowers’

I feel that this timeless quote is very true to how I feel at the moment, with the flowers starting to bloom. Our garden ware range has become very popular, as people are investing in their homes and gardens ready for the summer.

Garden ware is available in many different designs and if you can’t find what you’re looking for please do give us a call.

Hanging basket brackets are one of our best sellers we have many designs available.
If you like to hear the beautiful sound of a wind chime then why not indulge in one of ours.

I personally like unique gifts with thought behind them, and with Father’s Day approaching we have lots of gift options available.

Roy Kirkham has products to suit everyone with their versatile shapes and sizes of mugs and cups with saucers, or maybe even a tea for one.

We also must not forget our famous gift wrap, we sell it in sheets or if you require a little extra help we offer a gift wrapping service using our bespoke designs and of course wrapped to a high standard, finished with a satin ribbon.

I have been designing and selling my gift wrap for 7 years now, so this month we had to say a sad goodbye to our printer but don’t worry we have bought a new one ready for any orders!

Show your love and appreciation, perfect for any dog lovers.
Specifically for a father figure, make them feel special.

We appreciate every single one of our customers and hope you all are ready to celebrate the father figure in your life.

Wishing everyone a lovely time throughout the rest of the month. If you have any queries or would like to reach out to us our contact details are on the main website, we love the gift of giving.

Love,

Amelia Florence

In The Christmas Swing!

Hello to all customers new and especially those who have been following my journey from the start.

I haven’t made a blog post in such a long time due to having poor health both physically and mentally my BPD has been misbehaving along with physically my cerebral palsy and fibromyalgia. This Christmas is an important one for me as I’m also having an ADHD assessment so all things are in full swing. If any of you are a warrior like myself please feel free to get in touch as I love hearing from people!

We’ve got to keep on going and let the festive cheer into our bones even if that means not leaving the house! It’s cold and to be honest that can make anyone’s muscles tired and achy. So should you be worried?! NO!

Here at Animal Gifts we got you covered, browse browse and browse again because we’re here to help.

We have many things for you animal lovers including

A Greyhound vase which yes looks amazing with flowers in but no ones going to tell you off if you put cooking utensils in there let your imagination run wild.

As always we offer a gift wrapping service with a ribbon ( don’t worry I design it, but my mum wraps it ) therefore you can claim all the credit meanwhile we do not mind!!

Some may think Garden items are way off, but I’m here to tell you that gardens will be the focus and these cute robin fence post tops that could even be put into grass as part of a minimalistic garden display for Christmas could make the neighbours jealous with ease.

And along with having great products NEVER forget we offer free UK Shipping and use completely recyclable boxes tape and fill so once you’ve got your purchased goods put out the box into the recycling bin the rest goes!

So please keep yourselves safe and if you are disabled or have mental health issues remember that although it may not seem like it, it’s going to be a good Christmas!

Autumn Vibes

Hello and welcome to this months blog post,

I am very happy to say that with the help of my mum we have managed to go completely 100% recyclable with our packaging. We now use brown paper, paper tape and little nuggets of maize for all our parcels.

I could not be more excited about this as I love the fact we are helping reduce plastics but also making it easier for our customers who can just recycle the all of the packaging.

Now that we’ve officially said goodbye to Summer for this year, we are getting into the swing of things with Autumn vibes. For me this is where it gets exciting with the massive countdown to Christmas of course. I must say we throughly enjoy this time of the year with preparations in full swing.

At this time of year there is always so much to do but I personally feel it should be a priority to have a little switch up in the home. This maybe buying a few new items for your home or even just changing the place of an ornament. It can be as little or as big change to suit you!

Here are a few products we recommend and we are sure you will cherish.

Thank you so much for reading,

Amelia Florence

Our Promise

Hi everyone,

I hope you are safe and well. In this blog post I will be talking about our promise to help the planet as it’s a very important cause and close to our hearts to cut down on plastics.

We urge you to do your bit for the planet by recycling our packaging which we are working on to get it as good for the planet as possible.

We currently pack your orders using eco-fill, we will also look to use paper instead of bubble wrap and hopefully paper tape as well.

I am wishing you a productive and happy week ahead. This weekend we took part in counting butterflies, which helps indicate climate change, as different butterflies appear at different times of the year – weather dependant.

We look forward to a more eco-friendly future, which should actually help a lot more animals around the world!

If you took part in the butterfly count then why not treat yourself to a butterfly product, like this bookmark!

Our Suffolk sheep flower vases have been extremely popular and we are thrilled to have these back in stock again, in both the black and white faced options.

Thank you for reading and don’t forget to recycle as much as possible.

Amelia Florence
