FAQ

What should I send someone to say congratulations?

Something that marks the moment and lasts. Bluebells & Thyme congratulations hampers, from £85, including vintage treasure — china, a classic book of your choice, a handcrafted bookmark of your choice — with celebratory Welsh treats, for life's big milestones. For a quick, affordable "well done" by post, our letterbox gifts from £20 are the perfect choice.

What occasions suit a congratulations hamper?

Any good news worth celebrating: new jobs, promotions, graduations, exam results, new homes, engagements, new babies and retirements. Bluebells & Thyme marks the big milestones with full vintage hampers from £85, while our letterbox gifts from £20 suit the everyday wins — an affordable vintage keepsake and Welsh treats, posted the moment you hear the news.

Can I send a new baby congratulations gift by post?

Yes — a Bluebells & Thyme letterbox gift, from £20, posts through a standard UK letterbox, so new parents never need to answer the door: a gentle vintage keepsake, Welsh treats for tired parents, and your congratulations handwritten free. For grandparents-level celebrating, a full hamper from £85 arrives at the door as a proper welcome-to-the-world.

Can you deliver a gift the next day in the UK?

Yes — order from Bluebells & Thyme by 3pm Monday - Friday and your gift arrives free, next day, anywhere in the UK through Royal Mail Tracked 24 service. That covers both our letterbox gifts from £20, which fit through a standard UK letterbox even if the recipient is out, and our full hampers from £85, delivered to the door. Every gift includes a free handwritten message with no invoice enclosed.
