Father’s Day Gifting

Within this blog post, we’ll share insights and inspiration to help your Father’s Day gifting line up stand out in a competitive market. From wicker hamper baskets and cardboard gift boxes to wooden bottle boxes, there's a variety of packaging options that will work for a range of products, budgets and needs. Plus, you have time to customise UK stock if you want to add branding or messaging.

Add wicker hampers to your range

Once you’ve figured out what products you want to offer, you can start thinking about the hamper you want in your range. Or hampers! Each one of our hamper options offer something different and adhere not only to a variety of price points for your customers, but also to your margins.

Empty wicker hamper baskets are a great option for a more luxurious, higher price point. They make the perfect base for adding shredded paper and wood wool and then adding your higher end products for Dad in. This could include bottles of wine or Champagne, artisanal snacks and chocolates.

Our range of wicker baskets include sizes 10-24 inch and different colours and willow. We use either split willow or full willow and the baskets come in natural, black, bronze and more. Our split willow hampers also offer the option of adding a liner - we keep either cream or black in our UK warehouse which are available for quick dispatch.

Cardboard gifting - boxes & trays

If wicker hampers aren’t within your price range or you want to keep the price point lower for your customer then gift boxes, bags and trays are great for this. Our cardboard gift boxes combine sleek, modern aesthetics with cost-effective practicality - ideal for showcasing everything from luxury products to artisanal goods (like our wicker baskets).

The boxes not only provide a secure packaging solution but also elevate the overall presentation of any gift. Available in four versatile colours - grey, Kraft, black and red - and in small, medium and large sizes, they’re a flexible addition to any gifting collection.

Our gift trays are just as, if not perhaps more versatile than the boxes. They don’t have a lid which makes them great if you’re not sure how many products you’re going to be putting into your hamper (though we recommend doing this first). Fill with shred as you would a hamper or gift box and then add your products.

Our tray range offers a few more variations in comparison to our cardboard boxes. Available in manilla, red, black, wicker print and more, there’s also a range of sizes to choose from - all of which can create different price points which is an important aspect for your customers.

Add branding = add value

We talk frequently about customisation - and for very good reason. It’s a fantastic way to get your brand name or logo into countless homes. Out wicker hamper baskets and wooden wine boxes, like all our products, are crafted with quality and longevity in mind.

As you start or add to your gifting range for Father’s Day - or any special occasion - why not make use of our branding services? Our fast branding options offer short lead times and low MOQs - from fabric printing to laser engraving, we help you bring a vision to life.

Choose our liner customisation option to have a high-quality cotton liner, fitted inside your wicker hamper baskets, screen printed or embroidered with your brand name. The lead time for this service is 2-4 weeks, with a minimum order of 100 units. Alongside our printing services, we’ve added ribbon printing which has an MOQ of 500 metres and lead time of 1-2 weeks.
