Christmas at Geysir

If you are in Iceland and preparing your Christmas celebrations, chances are that you are currently on the hunt for the perfect gift for a special someone (actually – it’s overwhelmingly likely. Sometimes it seems as though we all save our most important gifts ’til the very last minute!).

The Geysir Heima store on Skólavörðustígur is a piece of art.

Earlier this week, the Geysir staff was so kind as to invite me to take a look at one of their newest stores, called Geysir Heima (which carries all kinds of beautifully designed products for the home) and pick out a few of their most popular items to share with you guys! All of these would make extraordinary Christmas gifts for your loved ones – and best of all, they range in a variety of prices, with something for almost every budget. Let’s dig in, shall we?

The Geysir towels make excellent gifts for a beautiful home – I dare you to get that fiery red one!

The Geysir towels were a new product for this holiday season and they come in 4 colors and 2 sizes. They are incredibly soft and with their subtle design, they add an elegance to any bathroom. You’ll get a small towel for 2900 kr ISK, a big one for 5900 kr ISK – but for the holidays you can get a big and a small one together for 7000 kr ISK (this holiday season only). I chose a beautiful dark blue color but you can go hot with fiery red or stand out from a crowd with a yellowy green. Your pick!

The towels are available at the Geysir stores on Skólavörðustígur 12, Kringlan and Akureyri.

Is there anything better than cosying up with a huge woolen blanket, hot chocolate and a good book during the holidays? Nope. I don´t think so!

The Geysir woolen blankets are a favorite Christmas present for many – and for a good reason. Made from Icelandic wool, they are not only beautiful and classy but also SO warm. Perfect for wrapping yourself (or a loved one) up on cold winter nights, or cozying up on the sofa, hot chocolate in one hand and a good book in the other. The blankets come in a variety of different colors and patterns. They’re also on a special offer right now: You’ll get the smaller fringe blankets for 12.800 kr ISK or a bigger blanket (with a circle pattern) for 14.800 kr ISK. These are available at all Geysir stores in Reykjavik, Haukadalur and Akureyri.

If you are going for a candle for Christmas, I recommend the “library scent” – it is like traveling 150 years back in time.

Finally, the Geysir candle is the perfect gift for a friend or for your own home. It comes in 5 different scents and each one will fill the room with an old-timey feeling and good memories, at 5800 kr ISK a piece. My personal favorite is the “library scent” (called Bókstofuilman) but I highly suggest that you visit a Geysir store and take a sniff for yourself – you will not be disappointed.

A big thank you to Geysir for these beautiful products and for the chance to show them to all of you – I can hardly wait to start using them this Christmas season! I was thinking of giving some as gifts but… I don’t think I really want to see those babies leave my house! No judging please, y’all – you will understand once you’ve seen these for yourself! 😉

Happy Christmas to you and your loved ones!

 

xoxo, Lady Reykjavik.
