Steph Douglas founded Don’t Buy Her Flowers in 2014, to offer a welcome alternative to the usual flowers gifted to new parents. The site now offers gifts for all occasions, whether it’s to celebrate, commiserate or offer the next best thing to a reassuring hug when you can’t be with a loved one.
We may be all gifted out at Christmas but put this brand in your address book for when you want to send your favourite person or a loved one, something special. Hint: Valentine’s Day is only six weeks away.
Don’t Buy Her Flowers is set apart by thoughtfulness and the fact that customers can choose a set package or make a bespoke package that perfectly suits the person they are sending it to, and the occasion. It becomes a physical manifestation of a human gesture; a hug in a box.
With over 100 products to choose from, which range from beauty to wellness, to alcohol to chocolate, the packages also vary for Gifts for Him, the Workplace, Teachers and more.
The bestselling package is the Create your Own, starting at £8.50 with each product selected then priced individually. All products are listed by category and popular favourites include, This Works Deep Sleep Pillow Spray, Bloom Gin, Montezuma’s Giant Chocolate Buttons and the Cashmere Eye Mask; offering your giftee a really personal package.
The Book Package (above) is also a customer favourite, starting at £25, with the option to choose your book and adapt the treats within the box. Examples of book options include, Girl, Woman, Other by Bernardine Evaristo, Good Hair by Charlotte Mensah and I am Not Your Baby Mother by Candice Brathwaite. Partner this with your giftees favourite tea, a sweet treat or a comforting beauty product for the ultimate memorable and thoughtful gift; instantly giving someone the TLC they might really need.
