Buyer's Pick - Ian Morris

Renowned locally for his cheeky wit and most excellent advice when it comes to buying gifts...here are Ian's chosen 4 products, guaranteed to raise a smile and entertain this Christmas.

Transform your empties into lamps with this rechargeable light. Shaped like a cork with a super bright LED that recharges via USB.  You can make interesting lights with vintage drinks bottles or create a cosy, improvised Christmas table feature. 

Ian doesn't need a  drinking buddy, even one who looks great in a pair of chaps! But you can hang a hunky cowboy on the side of your glass to mark your drink and avoid mix ups at your Christmas Party or hen parties, girls’ nights, picnics in fact anytime the drinks are flowing.

I really love this brand new candle range from voluspa. The candles are beautifully crafted and fragranced. but what makes them really special to me is the packaging.  It's a really clever ceramic jar with a hinged lid.  It's printed with such a beautiful image too which reminds me of some of the early work I did in Printed Textiles.  Any discerning candle lover would be delighted, I'm sure to receive this gift.

Finally Mr Morris is Gadget man himself and can spot a good gadget when he sees one!  These VR Glasses have been a best seller this season - Simply insert your smartphone into the secure visor, then let the glasses transform your movies and photos into a boldly impressive, fully immersive 3D environment. The Virtual Reality Glasses are compatible with most types of smartphone, and work by downloading the Discovery VR app and inserting your phone into the glasses. With impressive 360 degree image panning, this is a unique virtual reality experience like no other, right in your own home. A great gift for anyone who loves gadgets and discovering new experiences, this in an innovative product to astound the senses and provide a mind blowing glimpse of the future, right here and now in the present.

Top of the range are these luxury stunning candles from Voluspa, Crisp Champagne Candle and Gardenia - The Ceramic Pillar design comes with a clever ceramic vented snap close lid. This allows the scent to disperse even when the candle is not lit.  £39.50

Prosecco ho ho yes please.  This gorgeous candle was created using the tasting notes from a famous wine maker - sparkling white grapes with hints of grapefruit, rose and subtle fruits.
Poured by hand into a glass container re-purposed from a wine bottle, the rim polished by flame to give a perfect finish and finally beautifully packaged in a smart grey tube. No better gift for £22.95

From our best-selling range from Country Candles, this candle has a fragrance evocatively Christmassy fragrance.  Floral high notes of lily and jasmine combined with juicy figs, leading to a woody trail of amber and cedar. Perfect for lighting and get cosy by the fire.

Not just a gift for someone else.......at these prices (£10.50) you too can treat yourself to some me time......unwind by lighting up one of our scented candles. 

Ian's favourite is the juicy & vibrant Mango Mandarin - of course! While Nadia prefers the sophistication of the Parisian Cafe society!

Enza dreams of a colourful and exotic holiday in Zanzibar to compliment her new wardrobe -(pop by and see her amazing hand-made African Print dresses)  While her gorgeous son Dario picked out Wild Lime and Rose Tea - good choice captain!

For Kathryn a chance to unwind with the best selling Black Pomegranate??? although for those who know her well - let's face it she's much more likely to choose Prosecco - cheers!
