The Any Occasion Package™

(20 customer reviews)

From: £45.00

A package of lovely stuff to say happy Mother’s Day, happy birthday, well done, thank you, get well…whatever the occasion it will put a smile on their face. Choice of scarf and a choose from a range of drinks.

This package was a huge success for Mother’s Day, so we are bringing it back again this year. Recipients reported feeling really special, loving the quality of the products and the detail of the packaging. It probably shouldn’t have come as a huge surprise that combining gin and Mother’s Day would get a warm reception!

    > Hello Steph! My friend received her Don’t Buy Her Flowers gift today and she loved it. It was a perfect way for me to say thanks to her for some support & encouragement she gave me and for me to help her smile again following a bereavement….loved that you/someone hand writes the card too, perfect!!

    Lovely words from my friend Jo who got the package today!
    “Gorgeous women. Arrived home at 1130 this morning and a fabulous surprise turned up an hour later. Beautiful kind presents. I’ve already eaten the chocs and look forward to the Gin. Scarf is lovely too. Thank you. Made me smile and happy I’ve found fab friends.” Sisterhood. BOOM.

  13. Katie McIntosh –

    My grandma absolutely loved her any ‘any occasion’ package. She needed a bit of a boost whilst going through a particularly difficult anniversary alone, and this arriving on her doorstep made her cry with happiness, seriously! The scarf is beautiful, the chocolates delicious and the handcream really luxurious. If you want to give someone a little boost it’s worth every penny x

  14. Katie Benbow –

    I sent it to my best friend following the loss of her grandfather and she said it’s made both her and her mum cry! It’s times like this when chocolates, a scarf and most importantly GIN says so much more than flowers ever could – thank you for enabling me to give someone I love a moment of joy through the sadness.

  15. Hannah Hulme –

    I sent this package ti my sister-in-law who is in the final, all-consuming stage of completing her PhD. She was over the moon and sent me this note:
    ‘Thank you so so much for my wonderful parcel of joyful things! It absolutely made my day and was such a surprise to come back to. I love it all – I have munched my way through several choccies and am saving the gin and tonics for tomorrow when they will help me finish my introduction. And the scarf is absolutely gorgeous.’
    It’s especially nice for me to be able to send parcels like these to people to let them know I’m thinking of them while I’m living a long way away, so thank you DBHF xx

    I really really appreciate you both being so sweet and thinking about me – it really means a lot.

  16. Val and Jim –

    This lovely package was such a delightful surprise. As a Golden Wedding present it is perfect. The beautifully presented chocolates, hand cream, a scarf and two bottles of Gin and it are a lovely gift. Many thanks, Val and Jim

  17. Sarah Sheldon –

    A BIG thank you for making my mum very happy on Mother’s Day!

    She absolutely loved her package and said she felt very special. We always buy her flowers- which she loves but she felt utterly spoilt by her box of goodies. She said they were beautifully wrapped too!

    Thanks again
    Sarah x

    Just had to write to say just how lovely it was to receive my mothers day gift. Such a lovely idea, beautiful scarf, delicious chocs and hand cream always so useful. Beautifully packaged and a real treat to receive especially as it was a surprise. Congratulations on a very special idea. I wish you every success.

  19. Naomi –

    Just had to say that my mum LOVED her Mother’s day package; she thought it was beautifully wrapped and loved that there was a little bit of everything in it. She wore her scarf out on Sunday AND had her G&T that evening. One happy Mummy! Thanks Steph x

  20. Lindsay –

    I just wanted to share with you the lovely message I got from my Mum when she received her Mother’s day gift. The fact that thanks to you I was able to let her know that no matter where I may be I am always thinking of her is priceless. Another very happy customer.
    Message from Mum: Thank you so much for my wonderful and totally unexpected present. I love the scarf, the handcream is lovely and the chocs scrumptious. They were all beautifully wrapped , with a pretty green ribbon and a hand-written tag. I felt thoroughly spoiled.
