Christmas gift ideas for her What are you going to get the women in your life for Christmas? I know it can be hard to think of a great Christmas gift idea for her at this time of year, so today I’m writing my first Christmas gift idea for women blog. Over the coming weeks I’ll post more gift ideas and I’d welcome any comments you may have.
Today I’m suggesting you consider buying a jewellery box for the women in your life. I like the leather jewellery boxes by Dulwich Designs of London in the UK.

These Dulwich Designs jewellery boxes are beautifully finished off. They cost a little more than some of the unbranded designs you’ll see in some high street stores but the quality shows and is worth spending just a little extra on. The above Blush Pink Jewellery Box for example costs about £65 in the UK at the time of writing. If you’ve been wondering what to buy your wife, girlfriend, mother or sister this will make a lovely Christmas present for her this year.
Finally if you agree this makes a lovely Christmas present, I suggest you do your homework and just make sure that she doesn’t already have a perfectly good jewellery box otherwise it would be quite such a thoughtful gift.
Do let me know what you think of this Dulwich Designs Jewellery Box. I’d also be pleased to hear from you if you have any great ideas for thoughtful / special Christmas Presents for the women in your life. If you’d like to get in touch just post a comment below or see the about page for more contact information.

News and Comment The weather maybe hot and the days long but give it a couple of months and it will be dark when you travel home at night. This maybe a depressing thought, but I am always cheered with the thought of bonfire night and then Christmas to brighten the winter gloom.
It may well be too early to think about Christmas arrangements but the office party always needs a bit of planning. If you are looking to book a venue or just a restaurant it pays to book early to get the right package. Firstly, this includes a night that everyone can make, preferably a Friday so no bleary eyes the next day. If you are going for a venue for a themed night, food and drink it is even more important to get this booked early. Abba and other tribute bands are booked early and are great way of people letting their hair down and relaxing as there is usually some fancy dress involved too.
If this sounds too ambitious or expensive a festive meal out can still be great fun especially if combined with a secret santa. Some joke Christmas presents under £5 always get a laugh and passes the time when everyone is waiting for their starter.
Restaurants also make the effort to have a Christmas inspired menu to add to the seasonal spirit, so you can get your taste of turkey and Christmas pudding early or avoid these yuletide offerings if you think you will be fed up with it by Christmas day.
Whatever, you choose, make sure you approach it with the right attitude and enjoy yourself.
