It doesn’t matter how well you know someone; when it comes to finding the perfect gift, your mind can suddenly go blank. Excess is out, and thoughtful gift ideas are in. It’s quality over quantity, and we’ve put together a list of alternative home decor gift ideas that won’t need a gift receipt.
Nephthys Illustrated - Prints
Bold home decor is back, and we’re here for it. Prints are the perfect way to add a bit of personality to any home, and we are obsessed with Nephthy’s fun illustrations. Nephthy Foster is a self-taught illustrator and designer from South London; her work focuses on bold, minimalist prints that celebrate small joys in life.
Many of her print designs draw inspiration from food and drink. Our personal favorite is the pasta series or the 'real friends bring wine.' Interior lovers will adore her unique prints, and it's a great way to support an independent artist.
Contempee - Faux Flowers
Diamonds last forever, and now your flowers can too. When thinking of faux flowers, your mind is often filled with visions of plastic, cheap-looking stems, but forget what you knew. The new generation of artificial flowers will have you feeling like they’re the real deal.
Contempee has created faux flowers that provide the same effect as fresh flowers but will still stick around weeks later. From Hydrangeas to Pampas, they offer flowers that are perfect for elevating any home, and we were blown away by the quality considering the price. A house constantly full of florals is any homeowner's dream, so why not give them something that will last forever?
The Pillow Drop
Sticking with the theme of bold, fun gifts, Pillow Drop makes fun statement pillows to brighten up any living space. They offer a range of pillows with different messages embroidered on them, including the classic 'home sweet, f*cking home' and 'please leave by 9' designs.
All of their products are hand-made and limited edition (there’s only 100 made of each pillow), so you can be sure your gift will stand out from the crowd.
Harlie Brown Studio
I don’t care what you say; you can never have too much crockery, especially when that crockery is hand-made with crabs on it. These LE CRAB plates are a playful yet cool addition to any party table. Created by Harlie Brown Studio, who makes all of her handmade ceramics from her studio on the Kent coast, each piece is slightly different from the other.
Cute, stylish, and different: the perfect gift for a loved one. The only problem is we’ll probably have to get a set for ourselves!
