Make it a bundle of gifts this year!

July 29th, 2015

An occasional gift to your loved one or a small one just to brighten up someone’s day has its own special place amongst the categories of “heart touching gestures”. But if you want to highlight a particular day or event, or if you want to honour or thank someone from the bottom of your heart, your heart and walk the extra mile to choose a truly spectacular gift. Did you know that by choosing the hamper delivery in UK option, you are going that extra distance but with aplomb because you are not gifting just one item but a bunch of them? With really attractive packaging being used by most delivery companies, you are adding a figurative bow to your surprise as well!

Gift baskets or hampers are not new to the world of gifting. Our ancestors from ancient times have been following this method to please the royalty and their favoured people alike. Did you know that the great man Moses himself was placed in a wicker basket and then hidden by his mother so a Greek royalty would bring him up with all the comforts she wanted him to have? She put all her love and hopes in that basket and placed her son in it. Apart from being used for gifting purposes, baskets have also been used for many everyday activities such as for shopping, arranging flowers in them, transporting certain food types such as berries and fish, as a container for the odds and ends lying about in a person’s house and creating home decorative items. As the uses of baskets increased, so was the quality of the baskets improved. They were also made to look more attractive with the use of colours, beads, glittering threads, lace, satin or velvet patches or rainbows on the baskets and lining the inside of the basket with attractive fabrics such as muslin or pretty net. Baskets are traditionally made by hand, but there are several companies which have also started manufacturing gift baskets.

Gift hampers need not always be sent in a basket but can also be sent in other containers made of wood, ceramic, glass, porcelain, stones such as marble, etc. It depends on the items being gifted, the distance they have to travel and the amount you can pay for them. Be assured, in each variety of the hampers’ containers, there are plenty of varieties you can choose from. Some of them have clean, simple lines that will please a simple soul whereas some of them are a riot of colours and embellishments that will make an artistic person’s heart flutter with joy. Some of them are hand-crafted whereas some are manufactured by machines. Most companies, that sells gifts and offers to transport them to distances near and far, have a stock of such hamper containers that their customers can choose from simultaneously. So, rather than buying the gifts from one place and getting them packed in another, you have pre-prepared hampers that have a number of items already in them. Some of them can be modified by customers whereas some are fixed hampers.

You could make a hamper of an assortment of your friend’s favorite chocolates to plaster a smile on his/her face. To make it look beautiful, you could make a basket carrying your friend’s most liked chocolates, candies and cookies and decorate the basket with their favourite flowers.

2) Strengthen the knot of your friendship with Friendship Bands– The most common of all gifts is the friendship band, available in all colors and shapes much ahead of friendship day.
