A Very Cherry Christmas

This is the first of a couple of gift ideas I wanted to share with you as you know I like a bit of a theme when it comes to gift giving.

This may be too early a post for some who refuse to start thinking about Christmas until the beginning of December but equally it may help prompt some ideas for others.

As the title of the post suggests it's all items are cherry based.

All of these gifts will be individually wrapped and placed in a gift bag or box for the friend they are intended for and the label will wish her

A Very Cherry Christmas. 

I also plan to sketch of a pair of cherries on the tag and make them nice and sparkly with a healthy dose of green and red glitter.

First item is Carmex Cherry lip balm. Mine came from Superdrug.

Also from Superdrug is a bottle of Cherry and Almond bath creme and a tub of cherry and macademia body butter.

Cherry and strawberry patterned socks from Store 21. The present would work equally as well with all of these items in a strawberry 'flavour' and the gift labelled as A Very Berry Christmas should cherries not float your boat.

Cherry and Vanilla Yankee candle from Tesco.

A small bottle of tangy cherry hand gel from Primark. The friend this gift was bought for is never without a bottle of hand gel in her handbag so this isn't as strange an item to include as you may think!

She is a cider drinker so a bottle of cherry cider will be welcome. Mine was bought from Sainsburys.

Lastly a bag of jelly cherry sweets purchased from Wilkinsons.

Maybe a few of these items popped into a gift bag with the addition of a pretty glittery cherry label could make a good Secret Santa gift too, just a thought.
