Welcome to the 5th and final day of Tine’s Christmas Gift Guide for 2015. I hope you’ve enjoyed the gift ideas as much as I’ve enjoyed creating the guide for them. Man, it made me want to buy a lot of stuff. Talk about self-enabling!
I’d like to conclude the Christmas gift guide with gift ideas for the home. A common comment I get when I have visitors in my home is that it’s cosy (to be honest, I think it’s just a much nicer word than “gee, it’s small” 😛 ) and I like to think that I’ve done my best to keep it as cosy as possible. I love browsing homeware stores and believe you me, it’s hard to fight the temptation of not adding more unnecessary things in my house.
Out of all of the stores I’ve checked out to come up with this gift guide, the one I’m most impressed with is, believe it or not, Kmart. They’re really stepping up their game in terms of homeware and you can buy beautiful wooden and marble items for your home at very low prices. They even have exact dupes for items sold in other far more expensive stores. In fact, there are many Instagram accounts dedicated to how people decorate their home with items from Kmart Australia. Check out the hashtag #kmartinspire on Instagram and you’ll know what I mean!
Without further ado, let’s get started.
