What a scorcher of a week we’ve been having and it’s only set to get better over the weekend. There’s nothing like a bit of sunny weather to get you out and exploring the countryside and seaside surrounding us.
It’s been the inspiration for our blog this week as we’ve all sought out the lesser travelled path on the way home, just to make the most of the beautiful sunshine in the great outdoors.
For those of you on the search for the perfect gift for your Special Dad or father figure in your life, we’ve got lots of great outdoors inspired prints and accessories in the gallery at the moment.
Aren’t Dad’s always good with Map reading? Something I’ve never really got to grips with outside of the one on my phone. I’m sure this Map of Islay by Kate McLelland is sure to go down well with the Whisky drinker too, pin pointing all the distilleries on the Island. Why not take your dad on a Whisky tour and present him with this at the end?
Climbing mountains can be fun whatever the weather but on days like these, you can see for miles. This beautiful limited edition screen print from Louise Smurthwaite has a slightly wintery vibe but the perfect gift for those that like to scale great heights no matter the weather.

This weather does make you want to get out there for a picnic. If like most of us, you’ve got work to contend with during the week, then why not make your own little mini picnic for lunch? We’ve just taken delivery of new lunch bags from Sodakitsch is an array of new colours. They’re also perfect for Dad if he shuns the canteen in favour of some homemade sandwiches.
It can also be thirsty work out there exploring in the sun. Make sure you stay hydrated with these cool water bottles by Rebecca Kaye and her enamel mugs for when you must have that coffee break.
If you or your dad are lovers of the great outdoors then we think this lovely screen print by Charlotte Farmer might just sum you up in one perfectly formed little print. Happy Campers features Charlottes cool illustrative style and depicts all the key things you need for out exploring the wilds.
Happy Camping! Have a lovely weekend in the sun. 🙂
