Original gifts for Christmas 2021 that you’re sure to get right.
One of the things COVID has brought with it has been people reconnecting with nature and their homes.
Throughout the pandemic so far, we have invested time in our gardens, balconies, terraces and allotments; remote work has risen sharply, and interior design has re-emerged like a bulb in spring. These developments offer us new perspectives for Christmas gift lists.
At Eiviss Garden, we’d like to share some original ideas for those loved ones who have embraced this trend that is as creative as it is therapeutic.

Gifts for people with pandemic burnout
Do you know someone who is exhausted after almost two years of hard reflection? Yes, now that you mention it... who isn’t exhausted by this nonsense? There are all sorts, but for those who are particularly tired, as the perfect gift we suggest the components to create a terrarium or eternal garden. This would consist of a container in the size you prefer, stones, soil, and a selection of small plants to suit your taste. If you want to create something original, you can also choose decorations such as a small bridge, a little bench or figures that give it a more personal look. This glass-encased garden will be the perfect world in which the recipient of this gift will have complete control.

Gifts for those working remotely
Has your child returned from abroad? Has your friend moved to your city in pursuit of sunshine? Make their office a greener place. A collection of flowering orchids or other tropical plants to place in the background during their Zoom meetings is the key to success. Give that special person the chance to brag during their meeting, so they can tell their colleagues: "Yes, they’re real! I’m growing them myself."

Gifts for garden lovers
Many people have turned to sustainable gardening over the past two years. Encourage them to keep broadening their horizons by gifting unusual seeds, plant supports, drip hoses with timers that make watering easier, and kits with tools and gloves for both indoor and outdoor growing. And don’t forget, remind them that Eiviss Garden will be happy to put together a hamper with the best tools and organic products for their vegetable garden. And for those who live in a flat, urban gardens are a lively addition for the whole family.

Gifts for fashion lovers
We all know that friend who, in addition to loving their plants, growing their own vegetables and baking bread at home, is always dressed to the nines, because they deserve it. For them, these HUNTER boots are the perfect alternative to classic wellingtons and are just as suitable for tending and planting in the garden as they are for heading out for a drink at their favourite café. And, as they’re insulated, they’ll keep toes warm even on the coldest winter days.
