S&B Gift Boxes
The most frequent request we've received over the past week is for small, thoughtful gifts to send to loved ones. Wishing to cheer up friends and family is proving to be a popular impulse in these difficult times, as circumstances are keeping people apart.
When all you really want to do is give someone a hug, many of you are searching for the next best thing - sending them something that makes them feel warm and loved.
Other people are looking for a little piece of serenity and calm, in their otherwise upside-down world, spoiling themselves with items that create beauty and escapism in their homes.
In response we've created a selection of self-love gift boxes - to send to someone special, or to gift yourself, to help make each day just that little bit more beautiful.
Our theme is 'pressing pause' - taking time to let yourself breathe and be transported somewhere else, for even the briefest of moments.
Each box is available to buy on our website - just click on the links & images below.
Or call the shop on +44(0)2072214566 and you will be diverted to the lovely Maja, who can take any phone sales, or help you if you would rather create your own bespoke box.
We are still shipping both within the UK and internationally - so gift boxes can be sent anywhere you like - and standard UK shipping is free.
Love,
S&B
