Christmas season is upon us, and with that comes the difficult decision of buying presents. Some people are easy to buy for or will let you know exactly what they’re after. However, some people are not so forthcoming, and it can be hard to find the perfect gift for them.

Here at Hales Sawmills, we’re primarily known as one of Shropshire and the UK’s largest DIY, garden & wooden acoustic panel specialists. However, this doesn’t mean our offering is not suitable for Christmas.

We have countless products that would make great gifts for your loved one, so here is your Christmas gift guide from Hales Sawmills.

Get Their Garden Sorted

If you have a friend who loves their outdoor space or has recently moved into a new home and needs to get things sorted, you’ve come to the right place. We specialise in the garden, so we have a range of products that might make perfect Christmas presents. Some of our suggestions might not seem like normal Christmas presents, but sometimes a more practical gift is the way to go.

Exterior Paint

Give the opportunity to make some changes in your garden with exterior paint. We have a great selection of exterior paint products that you can use on sheds, fences, garden furniture, decking and more. Many of our products are waterproof and heat resistant, so you can give the gift of paint knowing it will last a long time.

We Recommend: Cuprional Garden Shades is a versatile product available in a great range of colours, meaning you can get a rich colour that matches the rest of your aesthetic. It is suitable for wood, terracotta, brick and stone.

Garden Sheds

A great way to make somebody’s garden custom for them is an additional space to call their own. Why not try a garden shed or summerhouse? These can be perfect for gardens of any size, providing a place to do DIY, create a reading space or offer a space for children to play in.

We Recommend: The Supreme Hobby gives you a functional indoor space, as well as the option to add a veranda so you can enjoy the outdoors but keep shaded or out of the sun.

Aggregates

If your loved one has a garden that they wish to change up, a lovely gift could be to provide them with some aggregates. This is the perfect way to instantly change the appearance of a garden, whether it’s changing a gravel-covered section to bark, or creating an additional path through the garden with the use of slate or sand.

We Recommend: If the person you’re giving a gift to loves a pop of colour, we’d recommend this moonstone aggregate. It has a delightful play of colours, ranging from whites and creams to blues and greys reminiscent of a moonstone gem.

Tools

If your loved one is a garden nut, chances are that they’ll want to get stuck into organising the garden in the new year. To do this, they might need some new tools, which is another practical gift that Hales Sawmills has to offer customers. From forks, hoes, shears and loppers to spades, shovels, rakes and brushes, we have everything you might need to get your garden in tip-top shape.

We Recommend: If you know the person you are gifting to loves to plant fresh wildlife, make things easy with this KENT & STOWE Hand Bulb Planter. It is made from carbon steel and beautiful ash wood, with a serrated edge for easy entry into the soil.

Gifts For Furry Friends

If your loved one has a furry friend, a great gift idea for Christmas is to treat them instead! Check out our pet collection, where you can find assorted items such as dog beds, leads, collars, toys and even pet coats. Many of our pet products are from Joules, so you can rest assured you’ll be receiving high-quality items to gift your loved ones furry friend!

We Recommend: If the person you are gifting enjoys taking their dog out in the great outdoors, this lightweight Joules wax jacket could make the perfect present. It has a showerproof outer layer with a cosy lining, helping to keep your pet cool and protected from the elements.

Christmas-Themed Gifts

To celebrate the Christmas season, why not give seasonal Christmas items? These can be used and on display for the remaining Christmas period, and then reused next year all season long! Our full selection of seasonal items includes light-up decorations, candle holders, tree hangings and much more.

We Recommend: Bring a sense of joy into a home with this set of three glitter red parcels. They are the perfect addition to a room, adding the Christmas spirit to a space before you have time to wrap any other presents.

We stock gear from top brands such as Joules, Regattas, Lazy Jacks and more, including footwear, coats, shirts and other outerwear.

We Recommend: For the outdoorsy woman in your life, this Joules Elberry Gilet in cloud blue is the perfect Christmas present.
