You’ve known each other for twelve years now, so you’ve literally given them all sorts of weird and wonderful gifts over the years. You’ve done the day spa, the clothes vouchers, the mini-break, those fabulous shoes she was eyeing off that day in Notting Hill, you’ve done it all and now you are seriously stuck for ideas.

How about giving her some Wish Lanterns? Wish Lanterns also go by the name of Chinese Lanterns as they originated in Asia where they were traditionally used for festivals and celebrations, but now the western world has found out about their beauty and they are now the must-have item for any special event, they are particularly popular at weddings.

They are still a relatively new product in the United Kingdom, so chances are your friend may have never heard of them before, you will certainly top her on the present giving front this year if you give her these. You just wait, for your birthday she will be racking her brains trying to figure out how to match you with the awesome gift of wish lanterns you gave her.

Wish Lantern has been supporting the Make-A-Wish foundation since March 2009 with one percent of all sales being donated to the charity each month. For 2010 we have decided to continue that support as we know what a difference a wish can make to a child living with a life-threatening illness. We have also donated many wish lanterns (also known as Chinese Lanterns) to a number of other charity groups and schools in order to bring a smile to the faces of young people.

Make-A-Wish grants magical wishes to children and young people fighting life-threatening illnesses. Make-A-Wish was founded in the UK in June 1986 and, since then, has granted over 5,900 wishes. At any given time, over 20,000 children in the UK are living with life-threatening conditions and its aim is to ensure that every one of these children can enjoy one of their magical wishes.

Wish Lantern is proud to be associated with this fantastic charity and will continue to support it throughout the year.
