Hampers makes a practical gift for anyone on your Christmas list. Everyone has to do laundry. Hampers are carriers and collectors of that laundry and there is no one that can go without one. That's not the only reason hampers are an ideal gift, though.
People don't usually put thought into buying their own hampers. They will usually have cheap hampers or may have the same hampers that they had in college. Buying an attractive hamper will be meaningful for the recipient and is a simple way to upgrade a bathroom or bedroom accessory.
A fun idea for Christmas hampers is to fill hampers with other gifts. This can be instead of the traditional stocking that many families choose to exchange. You can fill it with regular gifts that would be put under the tree. You could also fill it with just stocking type gifts, like food and small games. To fill in the extra space, wrap up a large gift, like a bulky blanket, and put it in the bottom.
If the person you are buying for is someone that it is hard to buy gifts for, consider going with a theme. If they are golfers, fill the hamper with some tees and balls. Maybe include a subscription to a golf magazine. If you are buying for a child, fill it with toys in the same genre. A basket full of hot wheels cars and tracks will be popular for any car loving kids.
Xmas hampers are a great gift for everyone on your list. They can break the ice when buying for those impossible to buy for people on your list. They are practical and can be a lot of fun if presented well.
