A little about us...

Welcome to Funky Monkey Gifts!

We’re a family-run business based in Leicester, passionate about creating unique, personalised, and fun gifts that bring a smile to every occasion.

  • Made with love

    All of our products are designed, made, and shipped by our team — no middlemen, no outsourcing. From the very first idea to the final package on your doorstep, everything is crafted with care right here in our workshop.

  • Family run

    Being a family business means every order matters to us. We pride ourselves on attention to detail, friendly service, and that personal touch you won’t find with mass-produced products.

  • Wholesale

    Alongside serving our amazing retail customers, we also offer trade services for businesses looking to sell our products, whether that’s bulk orders or custom designs.

At Funky Monkey Gifts, we believe the best gifts are made with heart — and that’s exactly what we put into every product.

FAQ's

Where are your products made?

We make all of our products right here in the UK in our Leicester based workshop.

Why is the dispatch date up to 10 working days on some items?

Our best selling Vintage Street Signs are made to order as there are so many options, we can't keep them all in stock! It's a fairly lengthy process and whilst your sign will most likely be ready in 5 days, it's nice to have a bit of breathing room and set realistic time frames.

Can I return a personalised product?

Unfortunately not. Personalised products are bespoke and made just for you, so if you change your mind we aren't going to be able to re-sell it - so make sure you are happy with your spelling and punctuation before ordering! Don't worry, if a personalised product arrives damaged or faulty you'll still be able to get a replacement as usual.

Do you sell your products to trade?

Yes! We sell a selection of our products at a wholesale price to businesses. Find out more information on our Trade page.

Delivery & Processing Times

Processing times

All of our products are made to order, which can sometimes mean slightly longer dispatch times.

Non-Personalised Products

  • Many non-personalised items can be shipped the next business day, depending on the product.
  • To be safe, please allow 2–5 business days for dispatch.

Personalised Products

  • Printed personalised products may ship as quickly as the next business day.
  • Our Personalised Vintage Street Signs take a little longer, typically 7–10 business days.
  • Other personalised items are usually dispatched within 2–5 business days.

Deadlines

If you have a specific deadline, please get in touch before ordering. We’ll always do our best to accommodate urgent requests, but we cannot guarantee expedited production or delivery.

Couriers

We work with a selection of trusted couriers, and the one used will depend on the size and type of your order.

Royal Mail – Tracked 24

  • Smaller items are shipped via Royal Mail Tracked 24, often arriving the next business day.
  • This is why you may see a lower shipping cost at checkout.

Parcelforce – Express 24

  • Larger items, such as street signs, are sent with Parcelforce Express 24 for next-day delivery as standard.

Evri

  • Oversized items (e.g. extra-long street signs or height rulers) are delivered by Evri, with a typical delivery time of 2–4 business days.
  • We also use Evri for certain destinations, including Northern Ireland.

Delivery costs

We do our best to keep shipping costs affordable while still using fast and reliable couriers. Delivery costs vary based on the size of your item and your location. Final costs are calculated at checkout, but here’s a general guide:

  • Small, flat items – £1.95 with Royal Mail Tracked 24 Letterbox
  • Shorter items (up to 60cm) – £2.95 with Royal Mail Tracked 24
  • Larger items (up to 100cm) – £4.95 with Parcelforce Express 24
  • Long items (over 100cm) – £5.95 with Evri

Order tracking

As soon as your order has been dispatched, you’ll receive a shipping confirmation email with a tracking number from the courier handling your delivery. You can use this number to track your parcel directly through the courier’s online tracking system.

If you have any trouble tracking your order, or if you’re unable to reach the courier’s customer service team, just get in touch with us and we’ll be happy to follow it up on your behalf.

Returns, Refunds & Exchanges

Our Return Policy At A Glance

  • Items must be in resellable condition (unused, undamaged, and preferably in original packaging).
  • Customers are responsible for arranging and covering the cost of return shipping. (We recommend using the original packaging to protect the item during transit.)
  • Refunds or exchanges will be processed once we have received and inspected the returned item.

Faulty or Damaged Items

I love it. It’s great quality. She made the changes I requested regarding difference in font size and colours. Cannot wait to give it to the gift recipient. Wish I could share a picture but can’t as it is a road name! But highly recommend. Well worth the wait.
