Spruce Up Your Home this Spring with These 5 Brilliant Gift Shop Finds

Warmer temperatures are finally setting in, marking the first vestiges of spring (yay!). With so many of us spending most of our time at home due to lockdown, it’s safe to say that we’re not alone in wanting to spruce things up. After all, spring is a time for new life and new beginnings, and what better way to breathe new life into your home. 

So, while planning your spring cleaning checklist, why not throw in a bit of redecorating? We’ve got you covered with this list of brilliant gift shop finds that you can add to your home or gift to your loved ones. 

1. Whisky Barrel Stave Wall Clock With Harris Tweed

Upcycled wood from a whisky cask and authentic Harris Tweed — it doesn’t get more Scottish than that. 

Made by hand in Scotland using wood from authentic oak whisky barrels, our stave wall clocks make for fantastic focal pieces and conversation starters in your home. The clock face’s gold hands are mounted onto a Harris Tweed backing, creating a piece that adds a rustic touch to any living space.

4. Frosted Glass Scottish Thistle Tea-Light Candle Holder

Frosted Glass Scottish Thistle Tea-Light Candle Holder (£34)

Each glass tea-light holder comes from a unique piece of wood, so no two will be exactly the same.
