As the summer term draws to a close amid the usual juggle of sports days, school trips and end of term assemblies, we've put together a list of thoughtful gift ideas for teachers to say thank you.


Having witnessed the extravagance of the Bezos/Sanchez wedding over the last few days, where hundreds of private jets shipped celebrities to Venice (a city already struggling with over-tourism and the affects of climate change) we're even more committed to supporting independent makers, working in a sustainable fashion.


Here are a few of our favourites:


A glass jar with pink bath salts sits alongside a wooden scoop on a wooden block.

Natural, nourishing skin care from Salt & Clay

Not your standard skin and bath products, everything from Salt & Clay is hand crafted from natural, nurturing ingredients.


We love their botanical salt soak jars made from Himalayan pink rock salt, relaxing Epsom salts, hydrating coconut milk and a choice of essential oils.

Hands laying out a tea towel illustrated with flowers and produce

Illustrated homewares and stationery from Brand & Feel

Brand & Feel create beautiful, illustrated items perfect for gifting, inspired by nature and the seasons.


We love their bestselling hand-drawn tea towel celebrating garden produce at its finest.


Crafted from 100% organic cotton, this tea towel is both eco-friendly and stylish.








Two mugs on a table

Handmade ceramics by Katharine Gray

Katharine Gray creates exquisite ceramics made from white stoneware and glazed in a selection of naturally inspired colours.


We love her hand thrown mugs, particularly in Sea!


Katharine has also created our ceramic pots, which we hand-fill with our signature scents.




A pack of 10 luxury notecards by Otto Editions

Otto Editions create stationery featuring Emma's signature hand-cut paper patterns.


Printed in the UK on embossed board and presented in a luxury box, the cards can be used for any occasion.




A candle in a silver tin with a cardboard tube in the background, both with yellow labels



And one from us - a new collection Winterfold Candle in presentation gift box

Our new summer collection is hand poured into rustic, silver tins with a luxurious 50hr burn time.


Available in four summer-inspired fragrances, the new collection comes in a recyclable presentation box.


We also have wax melts and hand soaps!







We hope this list gives you some good ideas for gifts for teachers and some brands to revisit for gifts in the future. If you're in your local high street, pop into your local independent, they will really appreciate it!
