My parents don't really want or need anything for Christmas, but I want to send them something, so I've decided to go the hamper route this year.

I've looked at a few hampers online, but my parents are a bit picky, so I'd prefer a create-your-own hamper, but there seems to be mixed reviews for a lot of them.

Can anyone recommend a good create-your-own hamper company?

Do you have a local farm shop? A lot of them do empty hampers at Christmas that you can fill with all manner of goodies from their shelves. Our local one does this and it's perfect for my picky relatives ☺️

Thanks, I will have a look!

I should have said but i live abroad, so it needs to be online. I think they would prefer British food.

Visit a local farm shop to see what cheeses etc they have.

I've been thinking of doing the same for the same reasons. I didn't realise this was a thing and have been screenshooting premade hampers with the intention of buying bits and pieces that I know will go down well to make up our own

I know you can't make your own OP but for those wanting to I regularly do this.

I buy the small baskets and cellophane and bows from ebay and they're really easy to do. I then buy smellies, nice biscuits a bottle of something, screw some coloured tissue paper up and fill it up, they look fab and much nicer than just wrapping the bits individually.

these are what I buy which are great as you get the full set.
