Gift Bible By women-led businesses

Thank you so much for checking out this Christmas Gift-Bible for women-led indie businesses in the UK.

Wow this year has been a toughie! So we want to have a cheery winter season – we DESERVE to have a cheery winter season. This year's first Christmas gift guide from Iris Dares, which offers a truly fabulous plethora of small but perfect women -led, created and inspired businesses in the UK!

We deliberately focused on independent shops and designers; those with creative talent (but not a marketing budget) to burn. This year, with smaller retailers really struggling - this approach seems more relevant than ever! More than ever it is vital to support the small guys. The ones who aren't in it for the big houses and the six-figure pay offs…who just want to pay the bills! So shop small and have fun! All discount codes will expire on 31st December 2020.

Thanks and big love,

Nic

Little Lily Pop Shop

Hello, my name is Emma and I set up @littlelilypopshop in February, inspired by my daughter Lily and from our love of handmade clothing and pretty dresses. I wanted something to showcase those beautiful clothes on and thought others would like something too. I paint and customise each hanger at home which has turned into a bit of a workroom/photography studio/storage of my growing flower/glitter/paint collection. I have a background in fashion design but had a career break after having Lily and wanted something to fit in with family life so along with a part time job this fits perfectly and is a creative outlet too. I started off with the girl hangers but after a few requests I added the boy hangers too! I currently run everything through Instagram and take orders through Direct Messaging for now. This will be my first Christmas as a small biz so I'm excited - I have already worked on Christmas colourways. Feel free to message me with any questions and requests you may have.

Prices start at £15 and have variations up to £25 depending on the level of detail or added extras like the wooden personalised hearts or wooden star wand with ribbons.

Quote code 'Giftbible'' to get 10% off your hanger price, code runs till 31st December, last orders for Christmas delivery are 27th November.

Milky Squid Stitching

Milky Squid Stitching is basically the contents of my brain transferred into a cross stitch that you can then buy. My stitches are funny (I hope), colourful, pretty, Netflix inspired and a little bit rude at times (again, sorry Mum). I produce framed finished pieces that are perfect for your home and office. But, I have branched out and also cross stitched on badges, tote bags, cushions, make up bags - if it's got holes in it I will try and stitch on it. If you like what you see please check out @milky_squid on Instagram for everything else I have to offer. I think a cross stitch is the perfect gift for Christmas!

Prices range from £3 - £30.

Snoozzzy

Snoozzzy is a children’s well-being brand which specialises in weighted blankets. As a mum of two young children I understand the affect a lack of sleep can have on both a child and a parent and so decided to try and find a solution! Weighted blankets can help any child who struggles to sleep all night but also specifically children who suffer from stress, ADHD, autism, other sensory-related sleep issues and anxiety.

Having suffered with anxiety during my teen years I really liked the comfort the blankets give to someone in need, and so my third child was born- snoozzzy. Snoozzzy weighted blankets are filled with just enough non-toxic beads to provide deep pressure touch stimulation without uncomfortable restriction. The deep pressure from the weight causes the body to produce serotonin and endorphins, which are the chemicals our bodies naturally use to feel relaxed or calm. In combination with the darkness that occurs during the night-time hours, the pineal gland converts serotonin to melatonin, our natural sleep-inducing hormone.

The blankets come in three weights- 5lb, 7lb and 10lb allowing you scope to find the right blanket for your little one. For optimum results it is recommended that you choose a blanket which is 10% of the users body weight as this should give 100% energy the following morning. The set comes with the ultra-soft minky cover of your choice which features the fun print on one side and then the raised dotty reverse which is great for anyone with sensory needs. All of our minky covers are machine washable on a cold wash and also feature 8 internal ties which allow it to be secured in place to the weighted blanket all night. A discrete hidden zip allows for the cover to be removed from the blanket with ease without causing any discomfort during its use.

Olipoliporium

Hi, I'm Cara the creator behind Olipoliporium and mum to three slightly feral children. Olipoliporium was born when I was looking for a frame for a friend. It couldn't be just any frame as it was going to be used for an extremely precious photo. So when I couldn't find anything good enough I decided to make my own. I now create frames, cards and Button Buddies.

My prices range from £1.50 up to £25 but some bespoke items can be higher than this. You can find me on Etsy, Facebook and Instagram, just search for Olipoliporium!

Pom Pom

PomPom was created by Cecily Henderson and Katherine Rhodes. We both have children (4 between us and all under the age of 3!) and were overwhelmed by the amount of plastic entering our homes once babies arrived. PomPom was our natural response to this.

PomPom is an online boutique of imaginative and well-designed plastic free products that children will love, play with and use, again and again. We source products from around the world and hand pick items created by brands that love design and creativity like we do. Our desire to be free from plastic works hand in hand with our aesthetic. We are a purpose led business and are proud to partner with the Marine Conservation Society, where we donate a percentage of our profits to this worthy cause. PomPom is based in the UK.

Our star products:

Climbing Triangle prices from £199.00 | Polar Stacker - £19.95 (we donate from the sale to our charity partner the Marine Conservation Society) | Farmyard Stacking Animals £19.95 | Personalised Mugs - £22.00

Sew Beatrice

Hi I’m Rebecca and together with my sister Jess (she’s the lovely one modelling in the photos) Sew Beatrice started this summer originally making hairbands and scrunchies to try and tame the locks of for my littlest.

From cool turban twist hairbands to designs that change colour in the sun we provide high quality hand made products. You can never have too many scrunchies!
