Have the unpredictable lockdowns got you wondering how you’ll get through the next couple of weeks missing those you love? The lockdowns have done wonders for keeping people here alive and safe, but that doesn’t mean that we won’t miss our loved ones and wonder how they are doing. With so much already going on, knowing your friends and family are happy is so important and we can use this time in lockdown to surprise friends and family with an unexpected present. Restrictions are beginning to ease in some parts of Australia, and with a possible end in sight, we only need a small push to get us and our loved ones through. No matter how you and your loved ones are feeling, we’ve been there, and from that we’ve come up with a list of some of the greatest gifts to put a smile on the faces of those you love.
Top 7 Gifts for Lockdown
1. Picnic Hamper
The perfect gift for the outdoorsy type stuck indoors during lockdown restrictions, our Edible Blooms picnic hampers are sure to get them feeling like they’re back in the great outdoors. From cheese and gin to plant-based picnic lovers, we’ve got you covered. No matter what kind of picnics your loved ones are into we’re sure to have a hamper to suit them and their personality.
2. Engraved Jewellery
A gift straight from the heart, personalised jewellery is the best way to let that special someone know you’re thinking of them. If you’re stuck on what message to add, a great option is to write a sweet quote that’s meaningful to you and your loved one. Whether it’s a necklace, bracelet or ring, there are so many options to choose from, and with a sweet message just from you, this gift is sure to bring a smile to their face.
3. Flower Bouquet
Who doesn’t love getting a beautiful and vibrant bouquet of flowers? And I think we can all agree they’re so much better when you can eat them. Here are Edible Blooms we have a huge range for just about any type of person. For the boozy babes we’ve got a selection of bouquets with either wine, champagne, or beer. For the health conscious we’ve got fresh chocolate dipped strawberry bouquets, and for the new parents we have a chocolate bouquet complete with a cute little teddy bear, sure to bring up rounds of giggles from your new baby. And with same day delivery, you can be sure your loved one will get your gift in no time.
4. House Plant
We all have that one friend or family member that’s just obsessed with house plants, and honestly, who could blame them! There’s no better gift than one that grows with you, with a little TLC, of course. Whether your special someone is a green thumb or just enjoys looking after some greenery in their home, plant gifts are a sure-fire way to cheer up anyone, and here at Edible Blooms we have a selection of plants you can send. Whether you want to send a plant separately or as part of a bundle we’ve got you covered, with our plant hampers including drinks or a range of treats.
5. Paint by the Numbers
Paint by the number is one of those trends that have become very popular in recent years, and here at Edible Blooms we can see why. Times can be stressful and sitting down and taking the time to paint something bright and beautiful is such an awesome way to relax. Sending your loved ones a ‘paint by the numbers’ gift is a sure way to put a smile on their face and besides, who wouldn’t want to receive a new hobby as a gift? Especially when we’re all at home with loads of free time for the next week or two.
6. Cocktail Shaker Set
With so much spare time on our hands, one of the best things to do is make yourself and your loved ones a nice drink. With so many recipes available online it’s the perfect way to get a bit creative and have some fun at the same time! Whether you choose to follow a recipe or go rogue and do your own thing, this gift is a great way to give your loved ones something fun to do, and a brand-new cocktail shaker set goes hand in hand with a stunning gin and whiskey hamper from Edible Blooms. Included are also some snacks that go together perfectly with whatever liquor you choose to experiment with first!
7. Candles or Diffusers
Lighting a candle and turning the lights down low is one of the perfect ways to de-stress after a long day. There’s a world of options when it comes to choosing a scent and style that they will love and with so many pretty options it hard to choose just one or two that your loved one may like. That’s where we come in at Edible Blooms, we have a gorgeous range of beautifully scented candle hampers that come paired with some delicious treats guaranteed to perk up the spirits of those you love.
We know making it through lockdown restrictions has been a bumpy journey and has left us missing those we care about most. Surprising those we love with beautiful and thought-out gifts to remind them that we care is one of the best things we can do, especially with an end in sight. No matter what interests they have there are so many options including our stunning lockdown hampers to lift just about anyone’s mood and bring a smile to their face.
