Just when we though shopping for lockdown gift ideas was a thing of the past, Omicron decided to rear its ugly head and send thousands-upon-thousands of people into isolation over the festive season. Thanks, COVID. Thanks a lot. If you know someone who will be spending Christmas Day at home this year, don’t underestimate the power of a letterbox gift in the mail. When your loved one is stuck in – what feels like – Groundhog Day, a thoughtful isolation gift can actually make a huge difference to how they are feeling.
It’s not just Christmas that they might need cheering up about – there are the other celebratory life events you’d normally mark, IRL, with a bottle of Champagne which may be ruled out to a period of quarantine. Think: birthdays, anniversaries or new jobs. Or may be you want to send a get well soon gift, just because.
It’s more about the thought that went into the lockdown gift than the lockdown gift itself, so don’t worry if Christmas shopping has diminished your budget to near-zero. Even the smallest of isolation gift ideas will be appreciated. Luckily, we’ve done the hard work for you and found a whole plethora of lockdown gift ideas to make their isolation comfortable and cosy, to suit variety of people – no matter their gender or tastes.
Many of these lockdown gifts come pre-wrapped, so whatever the occasion, you don’t have to worry about posting it to yourself first. Simply place your order online and let the stockist sort the rest. Oliver Bonas are even offering a gift wrap service for £5 on tonnes of the gifts on their site – AND you can save on your purchase with our Oliver Bonas discount code. Apt. They’ll remove all prices and pop your pressie in a ribbon-wrapped box. For the gifts that can’t be pre-wrapped? Just pop your lucky recipient’s address in the delivery box. The Royal Mail are rushed off their feet as it is.
In this edit, you’ll find a subscription to Masterclass – the site where celebrities teach new skills from writing to cooking and singing – and a 2022 wall calendar so they can look forward to New Year plans instead of focusing on the not-so-nice present. Elsewhere, there’s a tube of hot chocolate from award-winning London and Rye-based chocolatier Knoops (it’s so, SO good), a pair of reindeer pyjamas in a bag from Boux Avenue, a Christmas jigsaw puzzle to keep them entertained and Liberty’s Christmas Sleep Kit 2021 – containing everything from pillow spray to hand balm.
