Christmas hamper of dreams

[LuLuLimon]

Planning to do a few Christmas hampers for grandparents, siblings, nieces and nephews and perhaps even one for myself (but mine is going to be full of beauty products)! Never done this before and feeling a bit overwhelmed.

What would be in your dream Christmas hamper? With no budget

Stuff that I will actually eat or use!

Bath and Body Works candle
Tisserand happy vibes roller ball
Spacemasks
Lush massage oil bars
This Works deep sleep pillow spray
Starbucks toffee nut latte sachets
Hotel Chocolat salted caramel chocolate cream
Hello magazine
Cashmere socks

i think a decent hamper needs to be things people actually want or need - it could be slightly nicer versions of items they currently have or just their favourite item (eg favourite hand cream).

Theme your hampers eg
food hamper - foods, mug, cooking utensils, a food themed tea towel.

colour/brand - could be random items, but with a similar colour/brand theme (eg purple/star wars).

hampers can work our to be quite expensive (who wants a hamper full of poundshop items!), so try and include a couple of higher prices items alongside the cheaper ones.

Hampers baskets will increase the cost of the overall gift and unless it's an expensive one like F&M, they are often pretty useless, so i don't bother with them. i get lidl tray boxes and cover with wrapping paper.

you may need to add some 'bulk' items to take up space - big bags of crisps/popcorn, giant chocolate santa, tubes of sweets.

you can breaks up packaged items and split amongst different hampers eg packs or sweets or those boots beauty boxes.
