The HOLD Christmas List
December 2022
Gift-giving just got a whole lot easier with our specially curated gift guide, as chosen by the HOLD team.
'Tis the season to be jolly! Twinkling fairy lights, warming mulled wine, eating so much chocolate that you feel sick but continuing to eat more anyway- there's a lot to love about the festive period. Our favourite part? Gift giving!
Don't get us wrong, we love getting gifts too, but there's something truly magical about the look on your loved ones' faces when they tear open the wrapping paper and reveal that oh-so-perfect gift you've been eagerly anticipating giving them. That being said, we appreciate that some people aren't that easy to buy for, and the idea of shopping for others can evoke a sense of dread, so we've put together this specially curated gift guide. Here are our top picks for gifting this year, as chosen by the people at HOLD.
