Stocking fillers under £5
A decoration with their name on, to hang on the tree this year and every year after. Make one for everyone in the family, pets included.
For the Christmas table
Give every guest a place name to take home. Stand the reindeer and gonks by each plate, or lay a snowflake on every folded napkin.
A first Christmas keepsake
Mark a baby's first Christmas with a snowman decoration engraved with their name, or give a name sign for the nursery that stays up all year round.
For little explorers
Turn a bedroom into a safari, a jungle or the bottom of the sea. In a set, you choose the wood for each animal, and single animals make a lovely add-on. For more ideas, see our guide to nursery and children's rooms.
Getting it there in time
We make every order in 3 to 5 days, and standard UK delivery then usually takes 2 to 4 working days. Any UK order can add next-day delivery at checkout for £1.99.

Christmas gift questions
What's a good personalised stocking filler?
A wooden tree decoration with their name on, to hang on the tree every year. Our hanging snowman and hanging gonk are £3.40 each, and both are about 10 to 11 cm tall. UK delivery is a flat £3.50 per order, however many you buy.
What can I give for a baby's first Christmas?
A snowman decoration engraved with the baby's name makes a keepsake that comes out every December. For something that stays up all year round, a nursery name sign starts at £9.99, with free UK delivery.
When should I order personalised Christmas gifts?
For delivery to a UK address before Christmas, order by Tuesday 15 December for standard delivery, or by Wednesday 16 December with next-day delivery. The post gets busier the closer it is to Christmas, so the sooner the better. Our Christmas order-by dates explain how we work them out.
How much is delivery?
Christmas place names and decorations are a flat £3.50 per UK order, however many you buy. Name signs and animal wall art have free standard UK delivery. Any UK order can add next-day delivery at checkout for £1.99. Either way, we make every order first, in 3 to 5 days.
Can I order several with different names?
Yes. Choose the quantity on Etsy and list every name in the personalisation box. We recommend up to two words per piece, so the lettering stays crisp.
Can you send Christmas gifts abroad?
Many of our pieces can be sent outside the UK, and Etsy shows the delivery cost for your country at checkout. Our 70 cm and 80 cm name signs can only go to UK addresses. International post takes longer at Christmas, so order as early as you can.
