Zalando may or may not be a site you’re familiar with. I certainly wasn’t until very recently but have just lost an hour of my life browsing and planning who’s getting what for Christmas. Look away now friends and relatives because there are a few things I want to share. This is perfect for my husband who spends an inordinate amount of time wiping snotty noses. Perhaps if we had a tissue holder in the shape of a house it might encourage our sons to wipe their own snouts.
Now my mother in law is an ex ballerina (I know, how to make a girl feel ungainly and giant like) so this little timer is perfect for her as it pirouettes it’s way to perfectly cooked goodies. Now my Mum has a thing for owls so this little clever pot resting owl thingy is right up her street and will protect her work surface too. My Dad would love these boxes where you can chalk names etc on the front, just perfect for all the toys and paraphenalia currently cluttering my old room at their house. For my Lego mad first born this lovely Lego storage jar will be perfect for all those little Lego bits and bobs I tread on regularly. My youngest son is often found playing pirates so this bunting will please him no end. There! Xmas shopping almost done and there’s free delivery and returns too.
