Wild Things is starting 2026 strong, with its Pretty Little Birds collection shortlisted in the Affordable Gifts category of The Giftware Association’s Gift of the Year Awards
Entering 2026 with an award shortlisting is most definitely the way to do it. The Pretty Little Birds collection has garnered Wild Things recognition in the Affordable Gifts category of The Giftware Association’s Gift of the Year 2026 Awards. The six sweet, hand-painted glass birds include the hugely popular Robin, Blue Tit, Goldfinch, Emerald, Evening Song, and Rainbow designs.
The glass ornament range has steadily climbed the sales charts and is now a bestselling line, providing an added bit of sparkle to retailers’ gift offerings across the UK. Embellished with a crystal heart and enhanced with 24-carat gold paint, each bird comes in an illustrated box with an RRP of £9.95 – just the ticket for a last-minute gift purchase with heart and thoughtfulness behind it.
Spring Fair preparations have been in full swing at Wild Things for months, with a focus on new products such as enamel pins and nickel-free shepherd’s hook bookmarks, and fresh designs added to bestselling collections.
Ready for launch at the exhibition, Wild Things will add a little extra charm to the checkout with a new nickel-free collection of metal and enamel charm bookmarks. Twelve designs showcase classic, much-loved motifs, alongside new designs including the Happy Sausage dachshund and current favourite, the Indian Elephant.
In addition, there are 18 further designs based on the established Fabulous Florals suncatcher collection, including British garden favourites such as rose, lily of the valley, daffodil, and daisy – ideal for Mother’s Day. Lightweight, carded, and gift-ready, they’re perfectly sized to tuck inside a greeting card as a thoughtful finishing touch. The range will be beautifully presented in recently launched cardboard CDUs, available in both six- and 12-pocket formats.
Enamel pins are what kicked it all off for Wild Things owner Jules Vahrman back in the 1970s, and this year sees Jules return to his roots with a new range of enamel pins in 12 designs including hedgehogs, sausage dogs, bees, and robins. These heartwarming motifs have one thing in common – and that’s global gift appeal.
Mounted on heavy card with pastel colourways and product-specific Wild Things quotations, the range comes in a branded bamboo display stand. Starter packs are available to purchase, ready to go straight onto the shelf.
Existing customers will be familiar with the importance of suncatchers to the Wild Things catalogue, and this year brings new additions to the ever-evolving Crystal Dreams and Crystal Fantasy collections.
Eight new Crystal Fantasy designs, incorporating a 38mm crystal almond rainbow maker, feature stunning new mirror-bright metal motifs, including the Highland Cow and the Pretty Horse – celebrating the Chinese Year of the Horse. New Crystal Dreams motifs, available in both original and carded versions, include the Hedgehog, Cats Under the Tree, Highland Cow, and Pretty Horse. The design innovation never stops!
Wild Things looks forward to reconnecting with customers and sparking new relationships at Spring Fair. You’ll find the team in Hall 4 on Stand B22–C23, ready to help you add some rainbow colours to your giftware selection.
