Christmas gift guide for every budget
Is there a better feeling than watching your loved ones unwrap with gleaming eyes the gifts you carefully chose for them? I always feel a deep sense of gratitude to be able to share such moments with my friends and family.
But let's be honest: finding a personal gift for everyone can sometimes be quite challenging. In the article below, I’ve put together a gift guide for you with personal recommendations while keeping an eye on the available budget.
Let's gift some magic this year!
Art under €20
Small gifts can make a great impression, showing that you care and think of someone, even if you do not see each other regularly. My DIN A5 mini art prints are a beautiful way to express your love and can be used for decoration by the presentee.
For nature-lovers and dreamers, I recommend the mini art print CORAL (€19,95) showing a landscape in shades of pink, coral and brown printed on heavy structured paper with a touch of cotton.
With it’s vivid shades of green and emotional look, KOREAN FLOWERS (€14,95) is the perfect gift for the important woman in your life. The strong colour offers a magical contrast to the winter grey.
TINY LITTLE THINGS (€14,95) is a beautiful tiny reminder to embrace life, to see the world around us with curiosity and an open mind and to let your feelings flow.
Art under €60
Art has an extraordinary way of creating joy. It's as individual as each one of us. With each of my artworks I am sharing a story with you to discover and to make your own.
DANS LES RUES DE MARRAKECH (from €45,95) is a bold but dreamy ode to the bustling streets of Morocco. The light, sounds, smells and colours are as intense as the art prints nuances.
My art print A MOMENT IN TIME (€45,95) invites you to pause for a moment and take a breath. The warm shades provide comfort while bringing calmness to a room.
Puristic and soft in colour comes the art print AS FREE AS THE OCEAN (€49,95) showing the delicate stairs winding down to the ocean. I love this art print in my bedroom bringing back sweet memories of my time in Australia.
Art under €100
Do you know someone, who just loves flowers? I do, too! I adore wild flowers, freely blooming in all the places people thought they never would. The art print WILD FLOWERS (€99,99 incl. a matching solid wood frame) is a celebration of uniqueness and acceptance.
FOLLOW RIVERS (from €59,95) comes in shades of blue and grey providing a soft but intimate feeling. It’s to remind us to follow our path and trust the journey.
Friendships can be as deep as being in love. It’s always been second nature to me to show my love and appreciation for those related or not, through words. Maybe we have to tell our friends, family and partners more often I LOVE YOU (from €59,95).
Art under €150
The soft painting of a woman in a wild flower kimono strikes with a combination of earthy and natural pink tones. The structure of the antique linen and cotton of the original artwork comes to life in this art print KIMONO FLEURS SAUVAGES (from €59,95).
In Japan the ginkgo's fan-shaped leaf has carried symbolism along with its singular beauty: a symbol of growth, protection, peace, strength and hope, and a symbol of longevity as the tree can live for a thousand years. The art print GINGKO (from €89,95) captures the golden leaves in a magical way.
Landscape paintings are a beautiful was for your eye to travel and to let your mind wander to all these places far and near. The art print ISLAND (from €59,95) brings the peace of nature into your home and calms your soul.
Art over €150
The wall hanging LISTEN TO THE SILENCE (from 189,99) is inspired by the beauty of nature. The colors are like a warm summer evening. A poetic painting with mixed material, harmonious tones and a sophisticated edge as a modern take on nostalgic Asian landscape paintings.
The essence of cherry blossoms representing a time of renewal and optimism are captured in this strong woman’s portrait. The wall hanging SAKURA (from €189,99) is printed on heavy cotton giving the colours a deep and structural look.
Do you know a morning person, who just rises easily every day with a smile and fresh energy? Then the wall hanging MORNING DEW (from €189,99) is the perfect choice, embracing the beauty of the early hours when the sun kisses the land creating a magical atmosphere.
Wondering how to choose the perfect gift? Here are 4 tips for finding the right artwork.
Refine your search. Is your recipient passionate about a specific theme or genre that they have in their home gallery? Is it abstract paintings and collages, or perhaps silhouettes, that will make their face light up when they unwrap their gift?
Skilfully playing with colour. The artwork you select should fit in with the colours in the room and create a harmonious overall picture. Is there a specific colour concept in the apartment where your gift art piece will be displayed?
Make way! Should your gift be a large-format soloist on the wall or a small new eye-catcher added to the collection in a Petersburg hanging? The presentation location will often determine the image size. That's why it would be wise to take a discreet little tour of the art lover's home, enabling you to choose the right large or small-format work.
Captured moments. The shared moments that build a special bond might include far-flung trips, nature walks, having the same favourite flower or an emotional friendship experience. An artwork could form a lasting celebration of these connecting moments.
