Lockdown hasn’t been easy on anyone and sometimes we may need an incentive. We all owe ourselves a little treat once in a while and, for those who love interiors, these small home gifts may be the perfect pick-me-up.

Whether you love candles, plants or posters, treating yourself to small homeware gifts can be a huge mood booster. Many of us are looking for new ways to brighten our days, whether that’s through nice food, yoga or a new Netflix show. However, sometimes, nothing works quite as well as treating yourself. These pick-me-up gifts are affordable, working as perfect little treats to help ease those lockdown blues.

Little pick-me-up gifts are also perfect to send to an interior loving friend if they are feeling down. Sending small presents is sure to make your loved ones smile, especially if it is a surprise. Whether the gift is for you or a loved one, gifting a treat can leave us feeling energised, cared for and contented. Lockdown has left many of us feeling lethargic and drained, so if a little home gift can leave you feeling good, then go ahead and treat yourself.

Perfect for a more spontaneous purchase, these little home gifts are affordable and adorable. They encompass popular trends, timeless style and wellbeing, acting as the perfect pick-me-up. Plants are a great idea for an affordable gift, especially if you get a small one. With this, you have the added benefit of being able to nurture it and watch it grow. Candles are another great small gift, which can help you cultivate a calm and relaxing home. Simple kitchen accessories like coasters, glasses or mugs can also be a practical but nice way to treat yourself – my personal mug collection is always growing. Each of these home gifts is about quick incentives, maybe if you’ve had a bad day, or even as a small token to gift someone else if they have.

Whilst still affordable, these home gifts are slightly more luxurious. If lockdown is really getting you down, then these might be the items you turn to. Decorative items, calming scents and comfort are common themes of these gifts, all of which are under £40. If you’re a fan of flowers, then consider treating yourself to a dried flower bouquet. Popular on social media, these bouquets are beautiful and will last between 1-3 years, depending on the flower and care. Similarly, complement flowers you already have with a new vase. Finally, comforting items, that help to calm and soothe, such as light reading, nice scents and cushions are also excellent home gifts.
