Best Online Christmas Gift Ideas 2024

Looking for the best online Christmas gift ideas this 2024? If you're looking at a different kind of Christmas this year, finding the perfect gifts and experiences might require a bit more creative thinking. Our virtual classes and craft kits are a great place to start.

Christmas is that time of the year everyone looks forward to, but if you're working across the festive season or you've just moved to the other side of the world, it's probably going to be tough. Being separated from loved ones at any time of year is hard, but never more so than during Christmas time. If you're used to spending your weekends Christmas shopping, singing along to the festive songs in the shops, and taking in the atmospheric vibes when you've stopped off in the pub for a warm glass of mulled wine, you're probably going to need a little help boosting that Christmas cheer – don't worry, we're here to help!

If you're looking for things to do at home when you're bored (because who wants to be bored at Christmas?!), or you're searching for ways to celebrate your loved ones from a distance, our online classes tick all the boxes. From gift experiences for Mum that will warm her heart and let her know how much you care to workshop experience gift cards that will finally let your best pal master the art of traditional Italian pizza making from the comfort of her own kitchen, we've got something that will put a smile on the face of all the special people in your life. The best part is that you can tailor all of our gift experiences to suit your own needs – so whether you want to send Pops off solo for an online pottery class in London, you fancy joining him for some clay-based festive fun or you'd like to sign the whole family up for your own online version of The Great Pottery Throwdown, we've got you covered! Whether you're separated by a few miles or several timezones, our online classes and virtual workshops will have you getting into the Christmas spirit in no time!

Tempted? If you're not sure which online class or experience gift to pick, we've rounded up our favourite selection which will get those creative juices flowing in no time.

Celebrate the festive season with a cocktail making class

Whether you’re looking for Christmas present ideas for work colleagues, friends or family, opt for a virtual cocktail making class so you can do it together around the festive season. 

Whilst you might think you’ll need a bar to logistically go to a cocktail making class, times have changed and we’ll bring the bar to you – so you might not be able to head off to a cool cocktail making class in London, but you'll still be able to learn how to master a marvellous margarita together! With our beautiful cocktail making kits, we’ll deliver absolutely everything you need for your class in time for when it starts. You’ll just need to connect via Zoom and you’ll find your friends and a locally British cocktail making expert ready to teach you how to shake cocktails and make some cracking drinks.

This fun class will not only teach you the best cocktails to make at home, you’ll be able to drink all of them all to yourself with your friends or family on the other side of the computer. as there's no taste testing, you’ll just need to convince everyone that you’ve made the best DIY cocktails in the class! 

Try an online pottery class 

If you’re looking for the best experience gifts for Christmas which will last for years to come and could even spark a whole new hobby, then we recommend an online pottery class. Making pottery at home has become a huge trend, where people want to fill their homes with sentimental ornaments they’ve proudly made themselves. Just think about the amazing vases, cups, plates and so much more which can be made just from getting involved in ceramics at home. 

While clay making might conjure up images of a pottery wheel, you can actually kick start your adventure in ceramics with just clay and water – which is why an online pottery class makes the perfect experience gift for your most creative pal! Your loved one will feel like Christmas has truly arrived as we’ll send a beautifully crafted pottery kit to their home in time for the class to start. When they log on via Zoom, they’ll find other like-minded students and a local British pottery making expert ready to start the class. 

Whilst pottery courses have become a popular hobby, this could kick start a passion for a loved one as a way to take time out of daily life and focus on doing something for themselves. And if she keeps mentioning wheel throwing, discover our London gift experiences for Mum. 

Online candle making class

Making your own candles is so much more popular than you think. It's an amazing at home Christmas present because you’ll be able to tick off the festive present idea, as well as being able to give someone the opportunity to make something for themselves. 

Candles have an amazing ability to help you create a warm and cosy home. During the winter nights, you could potentially start making your own candles, which are not only relaxing but soothing for your soul. After a stressful day - especially if you’re working from home - you could totally transform your home at night time, by lighting plenty of candles to help you relax and clear away the work vibes. 

Wondering how to make soy candles from home? We’ll send you one of our candle making kits so you can become a DIY candle making expert in no time! When you receive our craft box which will include your making your own candle making equipment, you’ll just need to log onto Zoom. You’ll then be greeted by other like-minded students and a local British craft expert who will teach you everything you need to know about getting started with how to make your own scented candles! 

We hope some of these online classes have inspired your Christmas gift ideas. Not only will these experience gifts bring out the creative side in your loved ones, but they are also designed to create amazing experiences which could bring on new hobbies for long-lasting happiness.
