Newspaper Club 2024 Gift Guide

We love putting together our gift guide every year – it’s the perfect excuse to browse the brilliant things our customers make and sell!

With Small Business Saturday coming up on 30 November, we’re highlighting products from independent brands that print with us. From a typographic beach towel to a surprisingly handy (and cheap!) stationery tool, here are 7 picks from small creative businesses that also happen to make fantastic newspapers.

Bold beach towel from Lateral Objects

For the font fanatic planning their next seaside escape, this bold beach towel by Lateral Objects hits the (exclamation) mark. Crafted from 100% cotton.

Lateral Objects is a design-led homewares line from creative director Stefan Beckman.

Aluminium pencil caps from Choosing Keeping

We can’t think of a better gift philosophy than Choosing Keeping's description of these aluminium pencil caps: “Something seemingly inconsequential that can change your daily experience of life." Protects sharp pencil points and pockets alike. Sold in a pack of 3 for under a fiver!

Choosing Keeping is a London stationery shop offering beautifully curated desk supplies and objects for everyday life.

Magnetic play theatre from Benjamin Pollock's Toy Shop

Benjamin Pollock’s Toyshop has been a Covent Garden favourite since 1980. This magnetic play theatre, made exclusively for them in the Czech mountains, is full of charm and comes with everything kids need to put on their own plays, featuring designs by illustrator Hannah Dyson.  (And as a bonus, you'll get a copy of their collectable mini newspaper with your order!)

Benjamin Pollock’s Toyshop is a historic Covent Garden shop specialising in traditional toys and whimsical paper theatres.

One-of-a-kind ceramics from Ginny Sims

We'd love to start the new year with a cup of coffee in a one-of-a-kind mug by Ginny Sims. Mark your calendar – the next sale of her small batch ceramics is happening on 9 December, and they always sell out fast. While you wait, you can pick up her Sketchbook newspapers for a peek into her creative process with drawings, memories and inspirations behind her work (or get one free with an order!)

Ginny Sims is a Minneapolis-based artist who works primarily in clay.

Stylish salt mill from Glassette

Season with style! This handcrafted salt mill from Tiipoi, available at Glassette, is made in Channapatna, India, using traditional techniques. Its glossy orange and yellow finish is derived naturally from turmeric, Manjista and indigo and then polished with screw pine, a locally found fibrous leaf.

Glassette is an online marketplace that curates and sells objects from the most creative homeware brands in the UK.

Fragrance sampler from Clue

Clue Perfumery's small-batch fragrances take inspiration from surprising references like “jasmine tea brewed with ocean water” and “the glow of a lamp warming yellowed pages.” This 4-vial sample set is a fun way to discover a unique signature scent for the new year.

Every product from Clue Perfumery is designed, formulated, bottled, assembled and shipped from their studio in Chicago.

Seaweed scrub from Wonder Valley

An invitation to scrub off the old year and start fresh, Wonder Valley’s Seaweed Body Scrub is scented with eucalyptus, grapefruit, ginger and pink peppercorn. Pair it with a copy of The Desert Dispatch broadsheet for a post-soak read.

Wonder Valley is a California-based brand that blends modern skincare with the timeless benefits of olive oil.
