Gift Bags

Kerneels & Kie

Normal doesn't mean 'dull' although it can sound like that. Normal in Betty's Bay means waking up to a different season every day. It means going about the day's business and when you least expect it, coming across the thrill of a beautiful flower or a tortoise or the mist rolling down the mountain. while you are busy at your desk. It means magnificent sunsets which are different every day.  Is anyone out there surprised to hear that we at Kerneels love this place and are so glad and grateful to be able to live here?  

Nevertheless although beauty feeds one's soul it's not designed to feed the body and that is an exercise which gets more expensive month by month doesn't it? Where and how to cut down is on most of our agendas and gifts is one way.  When it comes to children one doesn't want to disapppoint them and a fun gift is a lucky packet. It takes more work because you have to shop around for bargains or you end up spending as much as you would on a toy but if you do and wrap each item it's a very exciting, low-cost gift for the little people in your life you want to delight. Ouma's lucky packets can become the family tradition which the children look forward to all year. 

We make the bags and we can decorate them - see examples. If you prefer to do that, you can. 

  • The minimum order is two bags.
  • The charge for the bag + decoration is R10. 
  • The charge for the bag without decoration is R5.   
  • We can deliver to Kleinmond and Betty's Bay.  Elsewhere it's a good idea for you to look for a rykansie.       

Feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

What We Learned Recently

As it turned out some people weren't at all interested, they just wanted the oil for their own use. Others however were "mal oor die boksies". The owner of the shop ordered more oil and more boxes.

Would this work for crafters?

Potters, soap makers, foodies, perfumers, jewelers - whatever your craft and whatever the objets d'art you make, if it's in a box it's a ready-to-go gift.

Time for a living gift?

Easter is a time of new life and this year it follows devastating fires in our area. Perhaps just this once the traditional chocolate egg gift can be overlooked?
