YOUR HOME with Home Fabrics
What Mum Really Wants this Christmas
Well, Christmas is on us with a rush and the toughest annual decision a Male makes is imminent: What to get “Her in Doors’, “The Management”, “The Old Boiler”, for Christmas?
Unless you’re the lucky recipient of very helpful and not too subtle hints and know how to interpret them, chances are that you too have given a “that’s lovely dear” gift on more than one occasion. So this month lets have a look at the 2011 top 10, never fail, Christmas gifts for HER.
So guys, trust me and put some thought into this now as it is important! Get it wrong and it could be a very long Holiday break…
Here you have a fail proof Christmas list, but if by some very unusual chance you did buy from Home Fabrics and made a mistake, we would be more than happy to change it for her in
the New Year.
Have a happy and safe Christmas from all us here at Home
Fabrics Takapuna.
Top 10 List
1. This year has to be the feather bed mattress topper. Absolute luxury with a 75mm layer of Feather and Down to sink into when you go to bed. Everyone just loves sleeping on them. Available in Queen,
King and Superking, and with 20% off the price until Christmas!
My personal recommendation and a guaranteed point scorer.
2. The Feather and Down Espresso summer blanket. So light and comfortable for the summer. Available in a range of colours and sizes (you might need to try to get some helpful hints on colour) or, for those who still like to have their duvet cover on in the summer, try our goosedown summer duvets. Unbelievably soft and light. Mention Channel magazine for a $25.00 discount on either of these items.
3. Egyptian cotton, or linen sheets. Nothing better. Lovely and cool for the summer but be careful here, not all Egyptian cotton sheets are made from cotton grown in Egypt and some are prone to pilling so call into the store for some expert advice.
4. For the risk taker we have a range of light summer bathrobes .You will gain extra credit here for the personal nature of this gift, if you get it right. Do not make the mistake of buying a heavy toweling one at this time of year; the teddy bear look is definitely out in summer. Currently we have a lovely selection of printed, colourful 100% cotton bathrobes ranging from $99.95.
5. A luxury pillow. A featherdown pillow is one of those items that mothers often feel is too indulgent to buy for themselves but that they really, really love for a lifetime when they receive it as a gift and hey, you need all the help you can get! What better way to have her thinking fondly of you at bedtime? Have a look at our Luxury Hotel range $129.95 with free pillow protector.
6. A mohair rug or throw. Again a little bit of luxury, so soft and light. A lot of our customers who buy these as a gift do so because they received one as a gift themselves and enjoyed it so much.
7. Towels that actually dry and feel good. Have a look at our Christies range. Made from Pima cotton, one of the most absorbent cottons in the world, yet still thick and available in a range of fashionable colours.
8. A Luxury large beach towel that is hers, not the kids’. For her only, to lie on and luxuriate on and enjoy the summer. Extra points for the personal nature of this gift and a hint: check the colour of her swim suit before you come in to view our extensive selection.
9. A Duvet Cover. This one is only for the very, very brave and we do suggest that in the absence of some very strict instructions you bring your partner in to choose for herself. Not worth the risk on your own.
10. Our extensive range of small Christmas gift items for that little extra or a present from the kids. From overnight bags to note pads and the enormously popular Linden Leaves Body Care range.
