Christmas Hamper Inspiration<\/u><\/strong><\/h2>\n

When you have someone special in your life but don\u2019t know what to buy them for Christmas I think a Christmas Hamper is a great idea. I think when you put them together yourself it makes them even more special as you can really tailor it to the reciprocant. Last year we made a special food hamper for my husband\u2019s Nan who needed wheat-free products and has trouble getting out and about. I lined it with a red scarf to keep her warm and threw in a few Christmas Knickknack\u2019s to give it a festive feel.<\/p>\n

I was invited to Christmas in July and got some Christmas Hamper Inspiration at Wilko<\/a> – quality products at affordable prices.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Creating a Christmas Hamper <\/u><\/strong><\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. What are you going to put into your Christmas Hamper?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    There are so many ideas of things that could go in a Christmas Hamper depending on the recipient. You could base it on a current hobby interest or favourite film. Here are some general ideas:<\/p>\n

    Food (pickles\/cheese\/biscuits\/fruit\/Christmas meal, etc), cooking\/baking, drinks (wine\/tea\/coffee), beauty, health\/fitness, clothing, cooking, toiletries, Pet, Collectibles, Cleaning (for a first car as opposed to a mother\/wife!), DIY, Tech, Humour, Sweets, Small Toys, Christmas Eve (colouring books\/Reindeer food, PJs, etc) – and so on.<\/p>\n

    Suggested items from Wilko:<\/em><\/p>\n

    Wilko Fruits Bath Foam Mini<\/strong> (418849) \u00a31.00; Wilko Gadget Face Mats<\/strong> (418313) \u00a33.00; Wilko Gadget Selfie Stick<\/strong> (418326) \u00a35.00; Wilko Green Bird Bottle<\/strong> (0418074. \u00a33.00); Wilko Silver Star Votive<\/strong> (0418037) \u00a32.00; Wilko Safari Hand Puppet Elephant\/Zebra Assorted<\/strong> (417387) \u00a33.00; Wilko Story Tales Peg Dolls Red Riding Hood<\/strong> (415893) \u00a32.00; Wilko Blox Figures Assortment<\/strong> (414839) \u00a32.00; Wilko Chitter Chatter Teeth<\/strong> (320694) \u00a31.00; Wilko Kiss 3D Smokey Eye Shadow Set<\/strong> (SKU 418869) \u00a33; Wilko Silicone Muffin Cases 12 Pack<\/strong> (SKU 284943) \u00a32.<\/p>\n

    \"Christmas<\/a><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. First you need to decide on your Hamper Basket<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      For example would you go for the Wilko Large Bamboo Hamper Basket<\/strong> (401525) \u00a32.50 or the Wilko Small Bamboo Hamper Basket<\/strong> (401526) \u00a31.50.<\/em><\/p>\n

      Which size you opt for may well be determined by the products you have opted to go for or you budget perhaps.<\/p>\n

      \"Christmas<\/a><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. How are you going to decorate your Christmas Hamper Basket?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        You may wish to opt for the Wilko Hamper Accessory Pack<\/strong> (shredded paper, cello wrap and jumbo pull bow. 401492) \u00a32.00. Or you may wish to use Wilko Merry Christmas Ribbon<\/strong> 3m (401496) \u00a31.00 or Wilko Frozen Ribbon 3m (419564) \u00a31. If you wanted you could even wrap the Hamper Basket – chose from Wilko Merry & Bright Striped Wrap (8 metres assorted. 419927) \u00a32.00; Wilko Foil Baubles Wrap<\/strong> (5 Metres 419929) \u00a32.00; Wilko Gnome Gift Wrap<\/strong> (12 Metres 419945) \u00a32.00; Wilko Stag Gift Wrap<\/strong> (8 Metres 419930) \u00a32.00; and Wilko Luxury Craft Wrap Twin Pack<\/strong> (419801) \u00a34.00.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. How you are going to arrange your Christmas Hamper Basket.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          As I say last year I placed a red scarf at the bottom – this not only added to the Christmas Hamper, and gave the base a good colour but it also raised everything up in the basket. I also won a fruit hamper last year and they used cardboard underneath to do the same thing. You may fit the Wilko Ultra Soft Throw Silver<\/strong> (120x150cm. 0417730. \u00a35.00) or Wilko Fleece Throw Grey Star Design<\/strong> (120x150cm. 0417727. \u00a33.00) at the bottom of your Christmas Hamper Basket.<\/p>\n

          \"Christmas<\/a><\/p>\n

          I think a few key Christmas Decorations added in to the Christmas Hamper give it a really nice touch: I like Wilko Nature\u2019s Noel Tartan Heart Decoration Assorted<\/strong> (419853) \u00a31.00; Wilko Nature\u2019s Noel Bird Decoration<\/strong> (419854) \u00a32.00; Wilko Nature\u2019s Noel Metal Mistletoe Decoration<\/strong> (419607) \u00a31.50; Wilko Nature\u2019s Noel 3D Wooden Tree\/Star Decoration<\/strong> (322140) \u00a31.00; Wilko Merry & Bright Mini Knitted Jumper Decoration Assorted<\/strong> (419842) \u00a31.50; Wilko Merry & Bright Embroidered Star Decoration <\/strong>(419847) \u00a31.50; Wilko Merry & Bright Mini Fabric Stocking Decoration Assorted <\/strong>(419845) \u00a31.50; Wilko Merry & Bright Glitter Metal Snowflake Decoration <\/strong>(419604) \u00a31.50 or the Wilko Merry & Bright Felt Robin Hanging Decoration <\/strong>(419841) \u00a31.50.<\/p>\n
