Christmas Gift Hampers
Why not create your own hampers this Christmas? All you need is a pretty basket, some tissue paper and some gifts to go in it. Themes work well, so think about what the recipient likes and be creative!
After Christmas the empty hamper baskets can be used for storage too so they make a really versatile gift. Here are our top 10 ideas for Christmas hampers we have come up with:
Food and drink Hamper
The traditional hamper that everyone thinks of at Christmas is a food and drink hamper which provides a gift that can last well after Christmas if you add preserves and foods and drinks with a long shelf life. Whether you have a fair trade theme or just choose from favourites, a food and drink hamper is sure to be enjoyed.
Chocolate and sweeties Hamper
You know this is going to be a winner. A firm favourite with chocolate bars, biscuits and cakes or theme it with flavours such as mint or orange.
Pamper hamper with soaps and smellies
Ideal for any loved one, you can choose from relaxing toiletries or perfumes with body and facial scrubs and brushes or include some scented candles to complete the mood.
Movie night hamper with a film, popcorn and a drink
A great way to add to the DVD or Blu-ray they want with the cinema favourites of popcorn, fizzy drinks and bagged sweets.
Sporty hamper with accessories, socks and deodorant
Pick their favourite sport and theme the goodies. Good quality sports socks are always a winner. To make it that little bit different also consider relaxing muscle rubs or massage balms for aiding recovery.
Pet lover's hamper with ornaments, jewellery and themed stationery
Choosing a pet as a theme gives a great coordinated range of matching gifts- be it Cat, Dog or Horse, etc!
New baby survival hamper with nappies, wipes and a bottle of wine!
A fun and useful gift, the hamper provides great storage in the nursery and nappies and wipes will definitely get used. You can add newborn clothes or toys and the wine will definitely be appreciated!

The perfect gift for those with green fingers, a gardeners hamper basket is well timed with spring just around the corner. Choose from the seeds that are planted in spring and include useful accessories such as trowels, gloves or hand salves.

A gift for the budding writer or artist! Pens, pencils and paints combined with notepads, writing paper, or sketch pads make a great personalised gift.
