Wanting to show some love to your friends? Shop these great gift ideas for friends!
International Friendship Day is a wonderful opportunity to appreciate the people in your life. Give your friends that bit of extra love in plenty of ways – go for a coffee walk together, video call them, snuggle up on the couch together for an afternoon streaming your favourite show. If your love language is gift giving, we have put together a gift guide for friends – perfect if you have birthdays or other special occasions coming up with them!
1. Polaroid Camera
Capture magical moments together, and print them instantly with a retro filter-like effect. Polaroid cameras work differently to our typical phone camera and encourage us to accept the imperfections of the first photo taken. A polaroid camera is a wonderful gift for any friend!
2. Raised Garden Bed
Gifting your friend a garden bed is a true gesture of love. They can plant their own herbs and veggies, or choose their favourite palette of floral hues to grow. You can even pair the garden bed with some potting mix, and a hand shovel and gardening gloves to set them up for a new peaceful hobby.Â
3. Espresso Machine
If you feel like splurging on your friend, an espresso machine is a wonderful choice. Coffee, in itself, is a love language. An espresso machine gives them the ability to make their own brew each morning, and will save them money on takeout coffee. You can even enjoy a fresh espresso together this International Friendship Day!
4. Perfume
There is nothing like being told you smell good! Give your friend the gift of smelling and feeling their best with a delightful new fragrance. Perhaps you know their signature scent and wish to give them a refill, or you want to help them find that oh-so important scent that belongs to them.Â
5. An Air Fryer
Air fryers can streamline cooking, and save your friend money on their power bill. Air fryers have been known to consume less energy than standard ovens. They can be used to cook an incredible variety of recipes and comfort freezer food.Â
6. Soda Makers
A soda maker is a wonderful gift because your friend can make themselves a fun, sweet beverage whenever they like. It will save them money on buying fizzy drinks from the store, and is also a great choice to the climate-conscious, who wants to reduce their waste, as it saves on plastic recycling! You could even pair the soda maker with their favourite soda flavour to complete the gift.Â
