Retro Prints, Highland Charm & Stocking Fillers that Pop
Welcome to the Oakley Home and Gifts Christmas Shop!
The tree is going up, the mulled wine is warming on the stove, and here at Oakley Home and Gifts, we are officially in the festive spirit. This year, we’ve curated a Christmas collection that celebrates personality, warmth, and that special feeling of finding a gift you just know they’ll love.
Here are our top three picks for Christmas 2025—from iconic retro designs to the cuddliest cows in the Highlands.
1. New In: Orla Kiely Homeware
For the lover of retro colour and iconic print.
If there is one brand that knows how to banish the winter grey, it’s Orla Kiely. We are thrilled to showcase the newest additions to our Orla Kiely homeware range, perfect for adding a splash of mid-century modern joy to any kitchen or living space.
This season, it’s all about the details. We are loving the Sycamore Stripe and Retro spot square oval collections—they bring a fresh, sophisticated twist to the classic patterns we all know and love.
Gift Ideas:
-
The Mugs: You can never have too many. Look out for the Lady Stem and Dee Dee mugs in rich olives, reds, and teals. They are the perfect size for a Christmas morning coffee.
-
Kitchen Statement Pieces: From vibrant storage jars to patterned plates
2. The "Must-Have" of 2025: Aquarelle Home Highland Cows
Rustic charm that steals the show.
If you follow interior trends (or just love adorable things), you’ve likely seen the rise of the Highland Cow in home décor. But nobody does it quite like Aquarelle Home. These aren't just decorations; they are characters!
Crafted with natural textures like jute and wood, these sculptures bring a touch of the Scottish Highlands right into your living room. They are undoubtedly the "Must-Have" item of our 2025 collection.
Meet the Herd:
-
Morag: The star of the show. Available in natural jute or multi-coloured options, Morag is a show-stopping ornament that adds instant rustic warmth.
-
Elspeth: Perfect for shelves or mantels, Elspeth comes as a stand-mounted sculpture that looks like she’s wandering through the heather.
-
Ailsa: Short on shelf space? The Ailsa wall-mounted heads (available in mini and large sizes) are a quirky, talking-point addition to any gallery wall.
These sell out fast, so if you want to put a "Moo-ry Christmas" smile on someone’s face, we recommend grabbing one early!
3. Stocking Fillers: Rosie Made A Thing
For the friend who loves a laugh (and a glass of wine).
Christmas isn't complete without a bit of humour, and Rosie Made A Thing delivers it in spades. If you need a Secret Santa gift or a stocking filler that guarantees a chuckle, look no further.
Known for their wonky drawings and painfully relatable captions about wine, exercise (or lack thereof), and friendship, these gifts are small in size but big on personality.
Top Stocking Fillers:
-
Mugs & Coasters: Pair a "Gin & Frolics" coaster with a matching mug for a budget-friendly gift set. Look out for favourites like the "Here We F**king Go Again" mug—ideal for that co-worker who understands the struggle!
-
Sticky Notes & List Pads: Fun yet functional items like the "Under Control" or "Spreadsheets" sticky notes make great desk companions.
-
The "Shop Small" Difference: These aren't generic gifts; they are full of British humour and charm that feels personal.
