Thinking of You Gifts

Thinking of you gifts

A thinking of you gift has no occasion attached, which is exactly why it lands. Nothing is being celebrated and nothing is being fixed — you're just letting somebody know they crossed your mind.

Keep it small. The point is that it arrived, not what it cost, and small things don't leave the person feeling they owe you anything back.

Everything here is designed and posted from the UK, so a Tuesday order is a Thursday surprise.

Frequently asked questions

What is a good thinking of you gift?

Something small, quick and clearly chosen for them: a funny candle, coasters, a print or a badge, with a card that needs no reply. Under £10 is the sweet spot.

Is a card enough on its own?

Yes. For most people a card that arrives out of the blue does more than a parcel that arrives three weeks late.

When should you send a thinking of you gift?

When everyone else has stopped — six weeks after the bad news is when the post goes quiet and a small parcel means the most.
