How to make pamper themed gift look special?

Struggling with a failure of imagination here!

We have a toddler and had a very challenging 2024, my wife put herself last for some time so I have kind of 'themed' her upcoming birthday around pampering. I have got her a special hair styling thing (not sure what it is but it's something she mentioned!), posh slippers, a spa treatment, a gift voucher for a local supplier of her make up brand, and a little makeup bag.

I originally got the makeup bag with the idea of putting the vouchers inside it but now I think that's crap. I want to present everything hamper-style...but not actually in a hamper, in something prettier and more useful, or something unique?

Not really sure what I want, but does any have any ideas for making it all look nice and special? I'll probably add sweets/snacks but haven't decided what yet

I've also just realized I haven't got anything 'from' the toddler but I will think of something she can make.

You could get one of those cases/boxes from tk max home sense

You could put face masks, body cream, herbal teas , massage tool etc

You can get them in tk max to add in!

What a lovely idea

What about something like this - https://www.debenhams.com/product/living-and-home-three-layer-cosmetic-makeup-storage-organiser-skincare-display-box-case-with-portable-handle_p-e278c5c0-16e6-49e5-9787-a522c984e34d?colour=Green&size=One+Size&istCompanyId=76f7277d-6e78-4dc2-aaff-1eb77fae16b0&istFeedId=258a4886-8f3c-47ef-9369-d1eda8d84501&istItemId=mpwrtaimi&istBid=t&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAhvK8BhDfARIsABsPy4h52wPrteM_UXiKKM3nMuqaBruHLRjaGy5AI-fvZITlrgZxThqmJ50aAtgKEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

If you have room? The drawers could have sweets and treats in it and you could get some mini bottles of fizz for the top compartment as well. They sell these in loads of places, not just Debenhams and also in different colours.

Whatever you use, put cellophane all the way round it and a ribbon. It's easy and looks great

Oh this is perfect, I think she'd love the aesthetics of it and like you say it's
perfect to fill with little treats and surprises, like the ones suggested by @doyouknowthemuffinman42! Thank you all 👍 😊
