RICICLE CARDS When it comes to Father’s Day cards, Ricicle has always taken the same approach it does with the rest of its range: starting with personality, not stereotypes. You won’t find golf clubs, footballs or “World’s Best Dad” mugs here – not because there’s anything wrong with them, but because dads, like everyone else, are far more interesting than a checklist of hobbies. Ricicle has never been drawn to the traditional “masculine” imagery often found on men’s cards – sports cars, footballs, power tools – and wanted its Father’s Day designs to feel different: inclusive, playful, and rooted in shared moments rather than outdated clichés. The three cards in the collection feature illustrations of a burger, a bottle of whisky, and a spread of BBQ food. They aren’t meant to define all dads, but they do nod to small, familiar pleasures – the kind of things that feel relaxed, comforting, and a bit celebratory. A really good burger. A drink poured at the end of a long day. Standing by the barbecue, convinced you’ve nailed the timing this time. Father’s Day doesn’t have to be loud or loaded with clichés. Sometimes it’s simply about recognising the everyday joys, and saying ‘happy Father’s Day’ in a way that feels thoughtful, modern, and genuinely warm.

Light it and the room opens out into woodland and shore, where pine and cedarwood feel clean and grounding, softened by warm sandalwood and the bright, resinous lift of elemi. Slowly, the scene changes. Forest gives way to the coast, and a breeze of bergamot and lemon sweeps in, fresh and salt-kissed, full of quiet energy. Beneath it all lies a gentle softness, a trace of jasmine and ylang-ylang, more skin-warm than floral. Coastal Walks doesn’t announce itself. It lingers like a memory of open air and long, unhurried days. Visit www.norfolknaturalliving.com 31 FATHER’S DAY
