The Frugality Christmas Emporium

Christmas - By Alexandra Stedman

Quick Read

Welcome to our giftguide! We hope you find it useful, beautiful and accessible…everything on our guide has been hand selected by our team, and as always we are hoping to be mindful of overspending this festive season (I have personally cut down on my gift giving – Chris and I don’t buy for each other, for example – and it has had such a positive impact on how I approach Christmas and my bank balance). We will be sharing more over the next few days, too (including an under £10 Treasure Trove!).

    Beautifully curated, affordable selection, just as I would expect from you!
    Like you I am making a conscious decision to think carefully and avoid the excesses of the season, it’s liberating and much less stressful all round. Except; I now rather fancy a Roberts radio, oh dear…

    Love this! Almost everything in this gift guide is already on my Christmas list – it’s like you read my mind! Really would love two of those beautiful LEH plates for my wall… Santa!?? Please!?!
    And the soap dish from Karin… I actually discovered her at the Etsy fair you worked on last year! Her ceramics are just beautiful.

    Really looking forward to seeing the rest of the gift guide! It looks absolutely beautiful too 🙂

      So brilliant! I realised I bought one of her trinket trays last year but hadn’t put two and two together x

    Love your work but this is really difficult to watch both on a phone or a bigger screen cause you gotta keep scrolling back up and down to see each mentioned product
