Stuck on ideas? Here's the perfect hamper for every person on your "nice" list
Whether you’re a happy-go-lucky gift giver or conscious about making sure your pressie is the exact perfect fit for each family member, a hamper – especially a curated, consciously designed box filled with sophisticated, gorgeous Australian-made products – ticks all the boxes. Thoughtful? Tick. Convenient? Tick. Beautiful, mindful and full of heart? Tick, tick, tick.
Containing carefully chosen and thoughtfully presented bespoke products from ethical, purpose-driven Australian brands, Curated with Consience hampers are designed to maximise the delight, joy and pleasure of the recipient – and the impact that’s felt by small businesses, marginalised communities and hard-working social enterprises long after the gift has been opened.
“Every time you spend money, you're casting a vote for the kind of world you want,” says Curated with Conscience founder Michelle Smith. “The upcoming festive season presents a wonderful opportunity for us to create social good through mindful gift-giving.”
Each sustainable gift hamper gives back to small-batch makers, social enterprises, First Nations-led businesses, female-owned companies and for-purpose businesses seeking to make the world a better place, one creative product – and socially conscious gift – at a time.
And so, with bells on, here’s our guide to the best hampers for your nearest and dearest.
For the sibling who loves clever design…
Crafted to include some of the best makers in Australian design, the Life by Design hamper offers long-lasting enjoyment well beyond Christmas Day. It features two vessels – the compact and creative memobottle (which is actively fighting single-use plastic consumption) and a HuskeeCup, which repurposes otherwise wasted coffee husk into a cafe-friendly companion – a soft linen Utility Co eye-pillow filled with Australian rice, and a soothing, nourishing Salus Calendula & Shea Butter Hydrating Body Cream. Make their Boxing Day coffee in the HuskeeCup for extra brownie points!
For the parent who deserves to be spoiled…
Show your parent (or parent figure) how much they mean to you – on this day, and every day – with a delicious food hamper that gets the message across… literally. The World Needs More of You hamper features that sentiment exactly on a bottle of 2019 Yarra Valley Pinot Noir from Goodwill Wine, a Victorian social enterprise that sources premium wines from leading Australian boutique vineyards and donates 50 per cent of profits to humanitarian and environmental charities. Add to that some delectable Australian-made treats – including maple-spiced nuts by youth-focused social enterprise STREAT, sustainably-grown toffee-coasted Taronga almonds, buttery shortbread biscuits and a date roulade – and we think they’ll start to get the picture.
For the quirky aunt or uncle with a passion for great food…
Three cheers for the aunt or uncle who always volunteers to handle Christmas barbecue duties. They’re more than deserving of enjoying great kitchen antics all year long, and the curated Beer and Bar Snacks food hamper will help them do just that. Better yet, this hamper supports First Nations-owned businesses, including Sobah Beverages and their alcohol-free beer as well as My Dilly Bag’s wattleseed and butterscotch popcorn, and covers the remit from salty to sweet. Before you know it, they’ll be cracking a cold one, nibbling on nuts and winding down – post-grill session – with a choccie.
For the best friend who deserves a breather…
One of the enduring messages of Christmas is “peace on Earth” and, while we can’t guarantee that amid these trying times, the Cuppa with Conscience hamper promises a moment of peace for your recipient. You’ll reinvigorate their daily brew ritual with this gift hamper, which offers all components your bestie will need to feel maximum chill. They’ll roll on an earthy, softly scented oil perfume and sip on a gently spiced Masala chai in a hand-thrown ceramic mug (designed by passionate ceramic artist Alicia McVilly), then snack on sweet treats that taste as good as the contributions they make to the lives of disadvantaged youth and Australian-owned businesses.
For a treat that will delight the whole crew…
Deck the halls and pack the pantry: the Christmas Fare to Share hamper is ready to delight family, friends and colleagues. It’s the perfect gift for one or many, with delicious artisan delights for every palate. We’ve done the hard work with this culinary curation, with a beautiful selection of traditional Christmas favourites (including gingerbread, Christmas cake and mince tarts) as well as handcrafted gourmet treats suited to vegan, gluten-free and nut-free diets. The best bit? Every treat in this hamper comes from an Australian small business committed to doing good and tasting great. Because when you give a Curated with Conscience hamper to your family member or beloved friends, you’re creating positive social impact – now, and for the future.
