Gorgeous Giftbooks For Christmas

It's that time of year already! We have been on stocking up with fab products, many exclusive to us, that we know our paper-loving customers will just love! On our pages you will find lots of unusual and quirky Christmas gifts - practical solutions and indulgent treats alike.

One of our best sellers is our fabulous Recipe File. We couldn't decide whether to make it bright and funky or cool and classic, so we went for one of each! Both options are ring binders bound in fine Italian leather and filled with a chunk of illustrated, lined cream pages, divided into 10 sections. Being loose leaf, you can add and remove pages whenever you like so you can keep it bang up to date with your current culinary inspirations as well as the old family favourites.

Another quirky choice is our fab range of pocket journals - neat little leather journals in vibrant colours, filled with plain white paper, each with a fun quote that will suit someone you know down to the ground. They are just 12cm x 9cm in size, ideal for a handbag or briefcase or just so cool to sit on the office desk. There are seven pocket quote journals in all to choose from, each with a luscious padded leather cover and bold silver foil blocking.

Our leather address book are perennial favourites so we have added some lovely new colours to both sizes. This larger size has alphabetical tabbed sections for: Name, address, home/work/mobile telephone number, fax and email (4 entries per page).

Despite everyone texting and emailing these days, we always find we sell lots of leather writing cases, at this time of year. So much so that we have added to our range of colours to include both cool and classic options, from bright pink, lime and aqua to tradtional black, navy or burgundy. We offer three sizes, each filled with a pad of Basildon Bond watermarked paper and envelopes, a perpetual calendar and stamp pocket and supplied in a tissue lined gift box.

Paper lovers like us will want your kids to get the bug for writing too and these cool and fun writing sets will get them started, even if it's just writing a few thank you letters after Christmas. There is still nothing as nice as receiving a proper hand written letter from the children in the family instead of a prompted mumble down the phone or worse still a text!
If you want something really unique and luxurious this Christmas, take a look at our unique range of Leather Lifetime Diaries. Our first choices were leather bindings in Aubergine, Black, Red and Antique Tan Hide, embellished with the wording 'A Wonderful Life'. This is a seriously huge tome of 1020 pages, split into years, each one featuring prompts to get you stared like
• Places I've visited
• People I've met
• Things I've achieved that year
• Things in the news that year

Next we added our Black Linen version, with a plain black linen cover that you can personalise with one of our free engraved nameplates. They are great for youngsters to start while they are young, but lots of older folk buy them for writing memoirs.

Another popular choice is this Personalised A3 Calendar for the kids to give their Daddy. You can't beat a homemade gift from a child and they'll have great fun colouring in each page for him. There are dolphins and dinosaurs, castles and cats and more to colour in and your child's name will feature on every page.

From generation to genetation, children always want to know quite how their letter to Santa gets to the North Pole and how he delivers all their presents to their Christmas stocking. This sweet personalised Letter to Santa Book has the explanation. The book is written as if by Santa as a reply to your child's letter and the rhyming story cleverly works in your child's name on every beautifully illustrated page. It's a lovely book to share at bedtime in the run-up to Christmas!

Here is a fun idea for a diary with a difference! If you like the idea of keeping a journal but don't think you will have time to keep it up this is just the thing. You just choose one word to sum up each day - it could be a mood, an event, an emotion or a passing thought. Was your day 'Gratifying'? Did you feel 'Sprightly'? Or was work 'Hellacious'? Keep it clear or make it cryptic, it's up to you to find the perfect word, but if inspiration evades you, turn to the handy lists of words at the back of the book - after all, would you ever have thought of 'Shananigans' or 'Serendipitous'? The page a day format will take you through one calendar year, but as the pages are not dated you can start and finish any day you like, which makes this cool little journal a super gift any day of the year. By the end of the year you will have a uniquely personal record to look back on - you'll be surprised how many memories can be triggered by a single word!

We are known for our fine leather journals of course, and this one is a real object of desire! It's bound in a beautifully soft and supple cracked leather and filled with 280 pages of recycled, ivory, acid-free paper that any keen writer will be just itching to get started on. As it has a lock it is great for personal memoirs and journaling.

So get comfortable with a nice cuppa and head on over to Oh So Cherished for a relaxed and hassle-free Christmas shopping session. And if you need advice, information or just want or place an order our phone lines are open from 9.30am to 2.30pm Monday to Friday just call 01983 526516 and one of our team of customer advisors will be delighted to help!
