Quirky gift ideas inspired by Alice in Wonderland
(17/02/2010)

5th of March will see the release in cinemas of Tim Burton’s adaptation of Lewis Carroll’s classic tale, Alice in Wonderland. To tie in with this Gift Ideas has come up with some quirky present ideas inspired by the film.

Personalised Alice in Wonderland Book
You could be Alice in Lewis Carroll’s classic novel! Choose yourself, family and friends to play six leading characters and simply substitute the names of the leading characters with your chosen names. Then write your own personalised dedication to appear in the front of your book, register your details and your personalised Alice in Wonderland will be specially printed as a paperback and sent out to you. £19.99.

Toadstool Light
Could this be the mushroom the caterpillar was sitting on smoking a hookah pipe when Alice walked by? The small red and white-spotted Toadstool Light is ideal for use as a child’s night light. It contains a bright LED that emits a soothing glow and requires no mains power or wiring, so it can sit anywhere in the room. Size: 9cm tall x 7cm diameter. £3.95.

White Rabbit Bottle Opener
If you’re a fan of The White Rabbit then this wacky bottle opener is a must. Wall-mounted and made in stainless steel, you can flick off those bottle caps with ease using the rabbit’s buck teeth. £9.95.

Udder Jug
You can pull the udder one with this jug (sorry) which would have been quite at home at the Mad Hatter’s tea party. Fill this glass jug with milk or cream and watch the chamber fill up in the shape of a cow’s udder. Height 12cm. £13.00.

Wall Face Piggy Bank
Another zany character that Alice might easily have stumbled across in Wonderland is the Face Bank. He’s a piggy bank that really enjoys his job! Styled as a red-brick wall with a face, Face Bank comes to life when you venture close and will happily munch on any coins you feed him. And at 9.7cm x 9.7cm x 9.7cm he’ll digest plenty of pennies. Battery-powered. £19.99.
