The height of the gift giving season is right around the corner! The city glitters with festive lights to make up for the darkness falling a little bit earlier each evening, smells of warm mulled wine and oliebollen waft in the air, and people run around in hurried steps to the background of Christmas jingles, laden with bags, looking for the perfect gift for their friends and family. If that last part sounds familiar, raising up a bit of a panic with the looming festive deadline in sight, and you still haven’t found the perfect gift you are looking for, have no fear. We have got you covered.
