Ad: This is a sponsored post, however opinions are 100% my own.


This month we are unwrapping a little joy with some thoughtful Gifts for Parents. We've teamed up with Cotton Traders, who've launched an enchanting Christmas collection this holiday season and we'd love for you to join in the festive cheer!

As the winter season approaches, this collection features everything from home decor, heartwarming gifts for your furry friends and little ones. Plus pyjamas, slippers and bathrobes to keep the adults happy. 

Christmas is a time for family, and often the tired parents get a bit forgotten at this time of year. We think they should have something to open on the big day so we've found the Best Christmas Gifts for new parents or even veteran ones! From our experience, we would be happy to receive any of these! 

In the hustle and bustle of daily life, we often find solace in the comfort of our homes. This is where memories are made, where we laugh and relax. Receiving meaningful presents to enhance your home is a really thoughtful gift. 

With that in mind here is our Christmas gift guide from this new collection.

Textured Cable Throw

Just what you need for family movie nights, this comforting, luxurious throw, is the perfect present for snuggling up with on these frosty evenings. Maybe the cat will join you! 

A useful gift, made from cosy teddy fleece, with an attractive, textured, cable finish. Draped across your favourite armchair this adds a personal touch to your sitting room and creates an inviting spot for reading a good book with a glass of wine after you've done the bedtime stories! 

Available in a natural cream colour, this will complement any design or colour scheme so whether you treat yourself or give to a loved one it's the ideal addition to your winter décor.

Winter Robin And Check, Brushed Cotton Duvet Set

Who else loves to get out the Christmas bedding? Last year we discovered flanelette fabrics! Not only is it lovely to have something seasonal on the bed, but we are so ready for warm, brushed cotton duvet sets

This one is reversible with a versitile red, white and grey check to one side, and a pine tree, robin and snow fall on a red base on the other. We love ours and when you've done a long day with excited children, sinking into this is rather heavenly. 

Remember that parents often look after themselves last. Sometimes we are all too eager to gift baby items when it's the adults who are in greater need. So these seemingly little touches actually create self care moments which will be appreciated. A great way to show you have noticed that your parent friends might need a bit of comfort - and a bottle of wine!

Owl Appliqué Cushion

Switching up your home accessories can be an easy to create a cosy nest without making major changes. Coming home to this sweet, winter, owl cushion is welcoming as you head to your living space for a bit of calm. 

It's popular with children as it has a navy velvet base with tactile textures on the owl's’ wings and tummies, I was informed of this detail by my daughter! This makes it rather cuddly but it's also a perfect gift as it can be added to a room seasonally and brings some joy each time.

I always feel a sense of satisfication if I manage to change the decor with the seasons. Alongside your Christmas tree and twinkly lights, it's a great item to sit with while you take on the family board games!

Robin Paper House

Who doesn't love the sight of a robin? A real symbol of winter and Christmas, this pretty lamp is one of those sentimental presents which will bring joy each year.

Perfect for a coffee table or to greet you in the hallway next to your ornaments or a digital photo frame.

This delicate paper house is guaranteed to be a talking point and is one of those unique Christmas gifts which will be remembered. I can imagine family members looking forward to showcasing this every year and children finding great excitement when it gets displayed. 

The LED light casts a soft, comforting glow, illuminating a winter village and little robins on each side. Giving one of these to a close friend or a specific person who needs a little cheer is a wonderful holiday gift. 

Another type of LED light that is also very suitable for Christmas decoration is the neon sign. Usually it can be customized to your thoughts, just provide the design and ideas. Custom Neon Signs can be hung on the wall of the living room or bedroom, or placed next to the Christmas tree. Not only can it produce a dazzling light to enhance the atmosphere, but it can also show your personality.


Soup bowl and spoon

As busy parents, often feeding yourself, especially during the day can be a little haphazard and you may end up not wanting to cook a nutritious meal if it's just for yourself. 

We've found that soups are a good bet when it comes to making something quick but nourishing. These 100% stoneware soup bowls with matching spoons are absolutely adorable. 

If you know a new mum or dad, this is a great gift, practical, yet beautiful. They are available in a choice of four pastel colours; green, blue, grey and pink. 

Not only do they have delightful little lids and handles, they’re also microwave and dishwasher safe. The only problem is as your children get older they will want to use them! 

This festive season provides a wonderful opportunity to express gratitude on Christmas morning. Not for all the obvious things but items which fill our homes with love and warmth and show we care. The perfect Christmas gift ideas for 2023 go beyond the ordinary, offering a chance to elevate your living spaces and even create joy in our daily routines. 

Whether it's snuggling with a cosy throw and cup of coffee at the end of a long day. To coming in to a sweet, glittering lamp or stylish kitchenware. These gifts add beauty but also are enchanting. 

As we head into the final festive weeks, the best gifts are those which have heartfelt messages, create memories and turn your living room into a winter wonderland. 

We wish you a wonderful Christmas filled with the warmth of shared moments and the joy that thoughtful gifts can bring.
