Goodwill To All Men 🎄

Men. Why are they so difficult to buy for?

You ask what they'd like for Christmas and get one of three answers: “I don't know,” “I don't need anything,” or the classic “Surprise me.”

Thanks. That's really helpful.

So, in the spirit of goodwill to all men, we've put together a few ideas for those men who seem to have everything — or at least everything they remembered to tell you about!

🧣 Something Cosy For The Man Who Has Everything

A good fleece throw is one of those gifts that you don't necessarily know you need until you've got one.

Our £9.99 fleece throws come in a choice of designs, including tartan check in grey or black and white, and geometric designs in grey or black. Perfect for the sofa, the armchair, the conservatory or anywhere else where someone likes to get cosy.

And let's be honest, if he's the sort of man who insists he isn't cold while sitting there wrapped in three jumpers...

He probably needs a throw.

📚 For The Man Who Always Has His Nose In A Book

If he's a book lover, you don't necessarily need to buy him another book. Sometimes it's the little things that make a lovely gift.

Our metal bookmarks are £4.00 each, making them a thoughtful little present on their own or an easy addition to a larger gift.

They're also a brilliant idea for anyone who still sends Christmas cards. Pop one inside the card and you've turned a traditional Christmas greeting into a little extra surprise.

Much more exciting than finding another packet of socks.

🌱 For The Man With Green Fingers

Every garden has one. The man who disappears outside “for five minutes” and somehow returns two hours later covered in soil.

Our Gardener Tools & Twine In A Tin makes a lovely gift for anyone who enjoys getting stuck into the garden.

The bird-decorated tin contains a wooden dibber for planting seeds and bulbs, a 17-metre roll of garden twine and eight wooden seedling labels to help keep everything organised.

Practical, useful and just the sort of thing a keen gardener can actually use.

Which is surely better than buying him something that ends up lurking in the back of a cupboard until next Christmas.

🪖 A Little Something For The Stocking

Need a fun stocking filler that doesn't involve another pair of novelty socks?

Our Disney Star Wars Stormtrooper Compressed Face Cloth is just £2.99 and is a bit of fun for Star Wars fans of all ages.

It starts off wonderfully compact, then expands when it's soaked in water to reveal the face cloth.

Small enough for a stocking, a Christmas Eve box or simply to add a little fun to a present.

Because apparently even Stormtroopers need to wash their faces.

🦸 For The Marvel & DC Fan

And then there are the men who never quite grew out of their love of superheroes.

Our A4 framed Marvel DC Comic Covers are £8.99, with a range of designs to choose from. They're an easy way to add a little personality to a bedroom, office, games room or man cave without needing to spend a fortune.

And yes, we're perfectly happy to admit that some of these are just as likely to appeal to the women on your Christmas list too.

Harley Quinn, anyone?

🎁 Goodwill... And A Little Less Guesswork

So, if you're currently staring at your Christmas shopping list thinking “What am I actually going to buy him?”, take a breath.

You don't need to find the biggest, most expensive or most impressive present.

Sometimes the best gifts are simply the things that suit him — whether that's something cosy, something practical, something for the garden, something a little bit fun or something that celebrates the things he loves.

Goodwill to all men. Even the impossible-to-buy-for ones. 🎄
