10 best last minute Christmas home gifts under £30

Written by Catherine Seagrave

I was feeling quite smug this year. For the first year ever I had completed my Christmas shopping early (maybe there are some benefits to lockdown, and no social life!). All wrapped, under the tree and looking beautiful.

But I don’t know what happens - presents seem to shrink in size and I end up with a crisis in confidence with my choices. Invariably I have a panic and end up scouring the internet for new inspiration to add a few extras. 

And then there are always those Secret Santas that suddenly get thrown at you, and let’s not forget gifts for the teachers, and a lovely friend who unexpectedly turns up with a gift - suddenly that ‘I’m prepared’ smugness has evaporated!!

So if you need a bit of last minute inspiration, here’s my round up of the 10 best home gifts under £30 on the high street, and from independents - that you can still get in time for Christmas.

Happy shopping!!
