No.8 - Mesmerising aquarium kits

An fish aquarium can provide endless interest, whether the intended recipient is an adult, teen or child. Many of us talk about wanting to get a fish tank, but are put off by not knowing what is needed to get one setup. However, our range of aquariums overcome this by providing them as kits, with everything that you need equipment-wise, so all you need to do is add water, and the fish! This makes them popular for gift giving at Christmas time, due to their low-maintenance and engrossing display.

No.7 - Growing with a garden planter

A garden planter, or even a set takes our 7th place in our Christmas gift guide, being a perfect match for anyone who loves their garden or being outside. The opportunities that a planter offers the giftee is almost endless, whether they choose to fill it with their favourite flowers, herbs, or plant their own 'grow your own' style produce, it'll no doubt take pride of place in their outdoor space, and be admired for years to come. Planter sets start off at around £60 for a set of two, so offer great value when buying as a gift set.

No.6 - A place to unwind on a bench

Continuing on with our garden and outdoor theme, a garden bench has to be included in our top gift ideas for Christmas. Who doesn't enjoy sitting out in their garden, taking in all that nature has to offer, or sitting facing a pond, water feature, bird table or garden ornament. Garden benches start off from around £80, so if purchased as a joint gift for family members, works out to be quite affordable considering it'll offer the recipients a great place to sit and unwind for many years to come.

No.5 - A garden retreat arbour

We can't suggest a bench without including an arbour too! Offering a more tranquil and private place to sit, unwind and enjoy the garden, an arbour gives all the benefits of a bench, but with the added benefit of extra privacy from the encasing sides. Maybe slightly over the top for a Christmas present, but the recipient is no doubt going to be so appreciative of their new garden retreat area, and get to enjoy it for many years to come.

No.4 - A tranquil water feature

Our 4th spot in this year's Christmas present guide is taken by the tranquil sound of running water, by gifting a water feature. Available in a wide variety of styles, designs and themes, water features make for great Christmas gifts for parents and grandparents. Offering a focal point in the garden with the calming, visual and audible advantages of a pleasant stream of water, cascading through the feature. For the majority, they're all self-contained, which means they're super easy to install without the need for any plumbing - just plug 'n' play!

No.3 - A bird table for feathered friends

Giving a bird table as a Christmas gift carries on giving pretty much every day thereafter. Once the birds in the area have become accustomed to the new food source, there will be no doubt an endless flutter of birds visiting to take a quick peck at the bird seed. Christmas time is also a great time to set up a bird table, as the autumn and winter months are the harshest for birds and wildlife to naturally hunt for food themselves. Ranging from around £70 to £150, they can make an affordable joint-gift to parents or grandparents, that can be enjoyed day after day.

No.2 - An ornamental bird bath

Continuing on with the wildlife and bird theme, a bird bath also makes a great Christmas gift for any family member or friend who enjoys their garden, or nature. Providing a more elegant offering, a bird bath, especially those crafted from stone look like they're meant to be a garden ornament, with wonderful detailing - however, also serve a dual purpose, providing fresh water for birds and insects to drink from. They can be placed just about anywhere in the garden, making a gift that will keep on giving to the giftee in the way of being able to watch countless birds enjoying the new garden addition.

No.1 - A garden ornament as unique as they are

Simply put, a garden ornament can be hand-picked to perfectly represent the recipient, their likes, hobbies and interests.
