Last minute gifts 2021 - add your suggestions

We’re putting together a gift guide with last-minute gift ideas and need your suggestions.

This guide will only feature presents that can still be posted in the week before Christmas, items with special guaranteed delivery or things like gift vouchers and PDF patterns or prints that can be emailed to the recipient.

It will be on our Christmas Page from 15th December, so before adding your items below please make sure you will be posting right up to 21 December if you send first class or up to the 23rd December if you can offer Special Delivery Guaranteed.

It also helps customers if you can add a note to the Shop Announcement section to reassure them about your last order/posting dates and make sure your Shipping Times are set to 1 day.

Thank you!

Here are the last-posting dates from Royal Mail.

@Amberlilly @DeborahJonesJewellery @tanyawannerton @bekokodesigns @jftalbotdesigns @JOYSofGLASS @BelaFarCrafts @yorkshireharecrafts @WashedandFound - thank you for all your suggestions!

If you haven’t already, could you please add a Shop Announcement to say that you are still posting orders up to xx date.

If you’re able to post the same day or the next day could you add that to the announcement too and ideally add change the shipping time to 1 day.

Without that information to reassure customers you are still taking and posting orders, we won’t be able to add items to the last-minute gift guide. Thank you!

I have added all that information in my Shop Announcement.

If I change the posting date in the ‘last minute gifts’ listings, I’ll have to do that for all listings, then change the date again and add all the shipping costs.

Oak Inlaid Box
A beautiful oblong shaped jewellery / trinket box made from solid oak. Externaly the box is finished in a durable light satin sheen, internally the surfaces are coated in a soft black flocking.
The top is decorated with an inlaid stylised flower pattern. The pattern, rather than being painted, has been cut and inlaid which will not degrade with polishing and will maintain the boxes appearance for many years. Dimensions 120mm x 85mm x 50mm.


Will be posting items all the way thro December.

I’ve added the announcement and put a free 1st class upgrade for last minute gifts too. I haven’t changed the despatch time on all my items as I’d have to do it 220 times but the info is all included in the announcement :grinning:

A few of mine to suggest.

I’m posting up to the 21st, using 1st class RM, so anything of mine would be ok. This would make a lovely gift for a sea-lover:
