The designer Christmas gift guide, part six
In today's gift guide we're looking at ... a bit of everything, really
'Tis the season to start fretting that you haven't done all of your Christmas shopping yet and wondering if the gifts you have got are completely inadequate and the recipients will hate them and, by extension, you ... But it needn't be. Check out the latest in our series of gift guides.
Spiderpodium (£14.95)
The Spiderpodium is a proper gadget. It may look like a flash pipe cleaner but it's actually multi-function stand that bends and twists into a holder for virtually any handheld device. Now available in Christmas colours.
Harry Potter prints (From £49)
Harry Potter boffins and typography aficionados alike will be thrilled to find one of these in their stockings. Eduardo Lima and Miraphora Mina are the duo behind the graphic art on the – seemingly endless – film franchise, and they’ve unveiled some new limited edition, numbered, embossed and signature-stamped prints. Magic.
