Christmas gift ideas

Do you brave the shopping centres at Christmas?

As much as I love the Christmas music and atmosphere at the shops during Christmas time – I have better things to do than spend an hour finding a car park – so I do most of my christmas shopping online, and I know I’m not alone!

If you’re an online Christmas shopper, some of my vendors on the children’s party directory sell a range of items – not just party decor! So I thought I would put together a collection of gifts you can find online from these vendors and to make the shipping costs more worthwhile you can pick up some partyware items for 2014 from these stores while picking up some chrissy shopping.

Remember to click on the images below to be taken directly to the store where you can browse even more gift ideas.

I also want to remind you to view the Christmas Showcase on my Facebook page if you want to browse a range of Christmas printables, decorations, props, gift ideas and more all in one place!
