Grandermarnier Christmas Gift Guide
Hey guys! Can’t believe it’s already time to start thinking about Christmas, it seems like this year has just flown by! Are you super organised when it comes to getting all your gifts sorted, or do you just wing-it a few days before? I usually leave it until the end of November/beginning of December before I start buying things, but this year I’ve tried to get ahead of the rush so I can just enjoy the lead up to Christmas more.
I’m a huge believer in buying gifts with heartfelt meaning to them, but that also you know the person will actually really want, not just what is a ‘good gift to give’. When you’re vegan, and anti-fast fashion, it can really limit the options available to you, even if you’re buying for other people. That being said, there seems to be a much wider range of sustainable, ethical gift options this year, and I’ve been doing my research…
It can be tough to come up with fresh ideas for gifts for all the people on your list, so I’ve done some of the legwork for you! I present to you, the Official Grandermarnier Christmas Gift Guide! (woo!) Read on and get inspired…
For the brother
Watson & Wolfe Washbag - £120
This luxurious faux leather washbag would make a perfect gift for a brother – you could even fill it with vegan skin care products! As washbags go, this one is by far the nicest one you could give someone – and they won’t even notice it’s vegan leather…
For the sister

For the sister who always borrows your reusable straw when you’re out, here’s a helpful starter pack – and a hint for her to stop borrowing your stuff! This sleek organic cotton bag comes with a bamboo toothbrush, stainless steel straw and cleaner, cotton face pads and a pack of bamboo Q-tips.
