Christmas Gifts | The Small Business Edit

Dear Santa (and associated anthropomorphic helpers, elves, family members etc who help your international delivery of Christmas gifts.)

This Christmas, I know your elves are going to be super busy, so I would love you to support some of the small, amazing businesses here in the UK. Yes, I will absolutely do well out of the deal thanks to their creativity when their creations turn up under my tree, and yes, I’ll be able to add to my existing collections.

NZ Art UK

Bronwyn hand makes nature and New Zealand inspired sculptures, pendants, wall hangings and tea lights. They are completely original and upcycled from all kinds of incredible materials. Did I mention all of the NZ Art UK pieces are beautiful too?

Mandii Pope Art

New Zealand born, settled in the UK since 2004, London-based artist, Mandii Pope works in a variety of styles, from Cityscapes, Beach Landscapes, Airbrushed Portraits, Fantasy Art, Spin Art, Contemporary, Abstract, Kiwiana, Figurative, Illustration, 3D Sculpture and Fluid Art. She also has an amazing range of Kiwi merchandise available in a variety of items which keep making their way into my home…

SANZA

SANZA (an acronym for South Africa New Zealand Australia), specialise in the import and distribution of all your favourite goodies from back home. No matter which corner of the Southern Hemisphere you stem from, SANZA have a treat or two to get your mouths watering and stomachs rumbling. They also have vouchers if you’re not sure what Christmas gifts to buy…

Radio Lamingtons

Radio Lamington was started by Daisy Green as a baking project during the first UK Lockdown of 2020. They first began baking their famous Aussie lamingtons to show their gratitude and support for the NHS front line heroes who were working around the clock to save lives. They wanted to do their small part, and providing a break and a happy memory of home felt right. They create changing flavours inspired by the season, as well as some nostalgic flavours rooted in Aussie childhood including our beloved Golden Gaytime and Milo lamingtons.

Cocos Meraki

Specialising in Maori and Pasifika style resin, art and woodwork, plus beautiful jewellery in many colours, Cocos Meraki is also run by the loveliest founder. You can pick which jewellery colours you would like to mix and match just type them in the personalisation category.

Love,

A pretty well behaved Emma
