If you have picked up any magazines December issue you would of noticed how they are all bursting with Christmas joy. To accompany this magazine Christmas joy is pages and pages of gift ideas for your loved ones. Unfortunately with so many different magazine spreads, so many different choices, I was unable to find anything remotely unique to surprise my family with at Christmas. I like the idea of buying presents for people that they would have never thought to buy themselves (aka no underwear or socks). I love the concept of totally unique presents because their is evidence you put thought it the present, you went out of your way to find something unusual that they would love. Here a few cute quirky gifts and stocking fillers I’ve picked out for those looking for a present that will stand out under the Christmas tree this year.
Mum: What a fun present for Mum’s tired feet, you could even include an “IOU” foot massage voucher. Handmade in Bangladesh, this foot scrubber is great for removing dry skin and will leave your feet feeling smooth and pampered. And being made of terracotta, it will never wear out. www.oxfam.com
Friend: Single or not this pillow is a hoot! The caption on the advertisement said it brings ‘peace of mind’. Just make sure if you give it to a single friend that they can take a joke! Better yet give it to your boyfriend for those nights your not there. Awww.
Dad: Dad’s love nothis more then gadgets and buy the looks of this weather station it is the ultimate button pressing gadget out. With external wireless temperature/humidity sensor, rain gauge, anemometer/wind speed and direction sensor this unit can give you all the information you need regarding the weather that’s been or forecast of the weather that’s coming. www.dadshop.com.au
Little Sister: Now this may just look like a normal t-shirt, but really it is bragging rights for any girl aged 13-16. Playground conversation as follows: friend: Ohhh I love your shirt where did you get it? you sister: oh my sister ordered it from LA for me, (*hair flick*) yeah, you know, all the stars love Kitson. www.shopkitson.com

Love the funky pillow!
Would be perfect if it comes in the shape of a monkey – my sis is a huge monkey fan. LOL.
I’m getting my brother a cufflink with a retro motorbike design. Still don’t know what I’m going to get my hubby yet…
