Food and drink are at the centre of any celebration. With these ideas, you’ll be giving the ultimate gift – whether it’s to celebrate, commemorate, or simply tell someone you love them.

Make it personal. For an adorable wedding present, why not design a bottle of prosecco especially for the bride and groom? At Dust & Things we make it easy for you to create a bespoke bottle of bubbly which will mean so much to the happy couple. And it doesn’t stop there – we also personalise bottles of wine, beer and whiskey! It’s the perfect gift for any special occasion.

A personal chef at home. Treating someone to a special meal out is a wonderful gift. Why not go one better and arrange for a personal chef to cook for them at home? It isn’t as expensive as you’d think, and is a truly memorable gift.

A personalised cheese board. Know someone who adores cheese? Give them a treat to remember with one of our beautiful slate or wooden personalised boards, and a delicious selection of cheese, chutney and wine. Read our guide to making the ultimate selection here.

Get creative with a recipe in a jar. Create a special jar full of everything a baker needs to make gingerbread or cookies, complete with a simple recipe on the label. This is a lovely gift, especially for children.

A grow-your-own kit. Know someone who’d love to grow their own produce, but doesn’t know where to start? Choose them a simple book about the subject, some seeds, pots and plant labels. A great place to start is a section of herb seeds to grow on their kitchen windowsill! 

 

A special night-in box. Choose one of our beautiful personalised wooden boxes and fill it with treats for the perfect cosy night in. Go for a movie theme, with popcorn, sweets and a DVD – or a girls’ night in with pampering treats and chocolate. Or, for a festive twist, create a Christmas Eve box full of lovely treats! 

Inspire a keen baker with their own personalised bread board. Make it really special and book them a place on an artisan baking course to go with it.

An afternoon tea hamper. Buy a lovely wicker basket and create the perfect pick-me-up. Fill with favourite tea time treats – a nice mug, a personalised coaster, some loose tea, a lemon drizzle cake and even pretty macarons. Add a bottle of champagne for extra fizz!
