It may be a while until International Friendship Day (this year it is on the 30th of July) but that doesn't mean you have to wait until then to spoil your bestie.
Whether you've missed a birthday or social gathering (many of us have over these past two years) one of these gift boxes is a brilliant way to show your best friend just how much they mean to you.
We think they deserve to be sent a thoughtful gift that'll be a welcome treat, and just shows how much you've appreciated their love and support. It doesn't have to be expensive - a bouquet of letterbox flowers, a hand-written postcard, and a hamper are brilliant ways to say "you're on my mind".
If you want to go one step further up on the best-friend-ever scale, why not put together a gift box full of things your bestie will love? It'll be the gift that keeps on giving and they'll feel truly spoilt.
In this article, you'll find a whole host of ready-made best friend gift boxes to treat your BFF, as well as ideas and inspiration on how to create your own. So, without further ado, let's get to it.
