I
do like a good personalised gift, and despite being completely stumped on what
to buy as gifts this year, when Ijustloveit.co.uk offered me the chance to pick a few
gifts I rather selfishly opted to buy myself some things, and then in a pang of
guilt changed the order so it was 50/50 between I and BeautyqueenUK.
So,
what was on offer?
Well,
I have to say I was impressed with the sheer range of gifts available, and the
range of personalisation that could be added to each one. The website was easy
to navigate, the gifts were sorted into relevant categories brilliantly (for a
lazy bloke like me simply clicking on ‘gifts for her’ narrowed down my browsing
time) and it’s rare that I say this, but the site seems to have something for
everyone, from personalised whiskey, cufflinks to candles, and all for a very
reasonable price.
Sooooo,
what did I opt for?
Engraved
Men's Leather Clasp Bracelet £19.99
2015
has seen me really get into accessorising – and bracelets have been a bit of a
feature for me throughout the year. This engraved men's leather clasp bracelet
features a brushed stainless steel tag which I personalised with my initials
and year of birth. I did consider using my old numberplate off my car ‘666 SJS’
but thought better of it.
The
bracelet is handmade with three strong leather cords and is finished with an
alloy clasp. The clasp is a bit fiddly, but it is solidly made and looks the
business. Personally, it’s now my favourite.
Personalised
to the Moon and Back Candle £8.99
My
wife is candle obsessed, and when I say obsessed I’m not joking. You cannot
move in our living room for the bloody things, so in a moment of madness I
thought, that’s what she needs, another candle!
Ideal
for giving to someone special on Valentine's Day or to your partner on your
anniversary, this lovely candle is presented in cellophane and tied with a
pretty ribbon for the perfect finishing touch. It has an impressive 150 hours
burn time and looks the business. Winner!
Happily
Ever After Hanging Heart £16.99
My
missus and I got married on Christmas Day back in 2004 (insert joke about
getting less jail time had I murdered her). Joking aside, trying to find an anniversary
present was a bit of a pain – I did find something in the end in a shop in
Wales (possibly the most racist shop ever) so this turned into just a surprise,
aren’t I lovely gift.
First
of all – it’s bloody huge – I expected something quite small but oh now – it’s
the same size as my head (which is big). It is solidly made though and it has
been personalised with our names and the date we got married – all together now
awwwwww (pass the sick bucket).
Personalised
Map Cufflinks £24.99
Now
these really caught my eye – being a Manchester native living (read existing)
in London I really liked these cufflinks with maps built into them. Well,
actually they are digitally printed maps in round silver plating settings
covered with a glass dome to stop them being damaged. They really are a chic
gift (for myself). Rather predictably I opted for, yes, Manchester and London
and I have to say, I can’t wait to get them on.
At £25 for
a pair of cufflinks I think they would make a really brilliant gift for him.
Sod Christmas, these would make a great gift idea for birthdays, anniversaries
or just for a man who is a nightmare to buy for!
So, was
everything great? Well from a product perspective, yes, the products are all of
a great quality but I found the delivery to be slightly strange. After ordering
four products together they then arrived on a kind of drip, drip, drip basis
over the course of seven days. It would have been much more cost efficient for
them to send all at once, but they did all arrive and arrive undamaged so in
theory I should just shut the **** up.
Great
quality gifts that will show that you’ve put a little thought into the person
you are buying for, and even better, it won’t break the bank. I highly
recommend using this site and have bookmarked it for use for every special occasion
coming up in the future (family you have been warned lol). Personalised gifts –
priceless.
