words Lucy O'Brien
Yes, we all know that you are the gift that keeps on giving. But let’s face it, you wouldn’t be here without your parents. Raising a main character like you couldn’t have been easy, and now that it’s the festive season, it’s a great time to say thanks to your folks. But the question remains, what to get them? It’s hard to find the right balance between gifts that will surprise and gifts that they’ll actually want to use – and with Christmas round the corner, we wouldn’t blame you if you’re in serious need of some inspiration.
Don’t worry – we got you. From staying-in essentials to relaxing aromatherapy, our products are a curated selection of happy homewares, self-care staples and dadcore-approved apparel to surprise your parents with. Think fun twists on everyday essentials like mugs or cushion covers. Or, if you’re looking for something a bit more wellness focussed, we’ve got self-care brands like Mirror Water and Clarity Blend for that. Best of all, our products have a commitment to sustainability and eco-friendly manufacturing, so rest assured you’ll be shopping for gifts to last your parents a lifetime, without harming the planet in the meantime. It’s a win win!
