FAQ

What should I send someone who is unwell or having a hard time?

Something gentle and undemanding. Bluebells & Thyme thinking of you letterbox gifts, from £20, are made for this — a comforting vintage piece and soothing Welsh treats, posted with your handwritten note rather than anything they need to respond to. When you'd bring the whole meadow if you could, our full hampers from £85 carry more comfort to the door.

Is a hamper suitable as a sympathy or condolence gift?

Yes — many customers send Bluebells & Thyme gifts as sympathy gifts. A full hamper, from £85, offers a lasting vintage keepsake and gentle Welsh treats; a letterbox gift, from £20, is a quieter, affordable gesture that asks nothing of the recipient. Either way your condolence message is handwritten with care, with no invoice enclosed.

Can I send a care package through the letterbox?

Yes — Bluebells & Thyme letterbox care packages, from £20, fit through a standard UK letterbox, so there's no missed delivery to worry about on a difficult day: a comforting vintage keepsake, Welsh artisan treats and your handwritten message. For longer recoveries or harder seasons, a full care hamper from £85 brings a bigger dose of comfort to the door.

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.
