Winter is creeping on – but so is the time for buying gifts. Whether it’s a Secret Santa present, a gift for someone celebrating a winter birthday, or useful stocking fillers for older members of the family, here are a few winter gift ideas which will keep the recipients warm as toast!
1) A china mug. A nice hot drink will keep the worst of the winter chills at bay – and it's funny how it tastes better if it’s served in a Fancy Mug. The Fancy Mugs range by NICI come in a wide range of personalised designs, including Call Centre worker, Fitness Freak, Music Lover, Football Champion and Glamour Star, so people will be in no mind who the mug belongs to! The ideal cold weather gift for someone tired of always searching for a beverage container.
2) Hot water bottle. Nothing quite warms the blood like cuddling up to a hot water bottle in the depths of winter. If it comes in its own cute fleecy case, a hottie also makes a great winter or Christmas gift. So seek out the adorable NICI range of plush hot water bottles and covers. Available in a wide choice of animal designs, including Calvin the Skunk, Classic Bear, Jolly Sheep, Love Cats and Winter Bears, you’ve got a positive menagerie of warm winter friends to choose from!
3) A fleece blanket. Following last year’s cold weather, the advice has been to carry at least one warm blanket in the car, in case you find yourself stranded. It’s good advice for indoors as well, especially if the boiler breaks down! The NICI Penguin range includes a large super soft plush fur blanket which, at 175cm by 140cm is large enough for an adult to wrap up comfortably. You’ll also find several warm fleece blankets in the Me To You Bears range, including a Christmas baby blanket and an innovative fleece with sleeves.
4) Warm comfy slippers. Nothing beats the feeling of changing into a pair of slippers that have been warming in front of the radiator. NICI have a range of cute adult slippers in sizes 4 – 8, which make perfect Christmas presents. Designs include Milo The Gorilla, Joey The Koala, Classic Caramel Bear, Jolly Mah White Sheep and Hetch Hogan The Hedgehog. There’s also Christmas Slipper Socks in the Me To You Bear Tatty Teddy collection.
5) An ice scraper for the car. Much more effective – and less environmentally unfriendly – than a de-icer spray, the NICI Ice Guys Black Penguin Car Window Ice Scraper is actually a scraper mitt – so your hand stays warm while you clear the ice away! The Mr Men range includes a handy ice scraper, and a pop-up windscreen frost and sun shield.
6) A thermos flask. A warm drink on a cold day can be a life saver, but it’s not always possible to find a Starbucks! New to the Ice Guys Black Penguin range is a chunky thermos flask, ideal for taking hot soup, chocolate drinks and the like to school or work.
No-one can predict what the Great British Winter is going to be like, but these winter gift ideas will ensure everyone is well prepared.
