Holiday Gift Find - The Little White Box

Happy Tuesday everyone, how was your weekend? Mine was wonderfully relaxing, going down to Wanaka for a mini holiday, enjoying the beautiful views and also working on making Toodles Noodles ribbon bundles next to a roaring fire – the perfect combo! With the holiday season quickly approaching I thought this would be a great time to introduce some great gift finds to the blog - this week we have The Little White Box, by Renee Coombe, located in Ardmore, New Zealand. Their philosophy revolves around the little things that provide comfort and character that help make a house your home, and we hope that their handmade wares find a place in your heart. With each piece being handmade and hand painted you will never find two items exactly the same which makes these beautiful ceramic items a lovely gift this holiday season.  I've personally been eyeing up the tea pot for my new home and purchased the lovely doves for my sister-in-law - aren't they to die for?! Their items make great cooking, baking, entertaining, housewarming gifts this holiday season - and are of course New Zealand made!  I do hope you love Renee's work as much as I do, and if you have any suggestions for the next holiday gift post, do let us know! x
