Kids are always the easiest to buy for, it's the adults in your life that can make Christmas shopping tricky, so here's a few ideas for those hard to please giftwise.
Not sponsored, but awhile ago I won a Bockers & Pony hamper, and it was one of the only hampers I've received where I liked everything in it - not any 'filler'. This was the Cheers hamper, but there are Christmas offerings, and many other great gift ideas. With the red & white ribbon, it would make the perfect festive surprise. So if you're really stuck, or looking for a hamper to send, I'd look at Bockers & Pony.
If money's no object, I'd consider the Fly'n'Dine with Sydney Seaplanes. A luxury gift that makes you feel like you've stepped into another life for a few hours.
Or for a gift that gives twice - head to the Little Shop for handmade gifts where the proceeds go to hospitals.
These little pendants make lovely gifts from Udderly Mine.
Look for the local gift markets in your area. There are a lot popping up in December - and when you buy local, your hard earned cash is going into the community. The Artisan Markets are popping up in Annandale on the 5th December, if you're after funky handmade gift ideas.
If you are really stumped, why not head to Daddy, I want a pony! and potter around the sensational gift shop in Leichhardt. There's bound to be something there to solve your dilemma.

I love a nice hamper, hadn't heard of these!
ReplyDeleteOh no! I forgot to write a Christmas post this week. Damn it ...
ReplyDeleteI love hampers.
I usually make my own, but this looks great.
Oh that hamper looks nice! I'm off to 'start' my Christmas shopping today!
ReplyDeleteI love a good hamper. Thanks for sharing that one Lydia. I'm always afraid of buying a hamper and finding half the contents is filled with filler or basic food items. x
ReplyDeleteHmmm... I wrote a post over at Styling You today re Christmas gifts, wonder if I can add that given it's not actually on my blog.
ReplyDeleteI'm also a fan of the hamper, though probably appreciate them more if the person puts it together themselves and tailor it especially to the recipient!
That does look a good hamper, I'd pretty much given up on them as they often seem to have a couple of good things then whatever else they could find to fill the gaps.
ReplyDeleteDaddy I want a pony! What a brilliant name for a gift shop! Hilarious! Id love to do the seaplane lunch one day. How divine that would be!
ReplyDeleteThose pendants look lovely. We have our local markets on next weekend & I can't wait to see what lovely little gifts I can find there
ReplyDeleteFly and dine... what an awesome gift idea. I'd be super happy with that! Thanks for sharing and linking up to The Ultimate Rabbit Hole xx
ReplyDeleteI've had a hamper from those guys and they're great!
ReplyDeleteThese are all new to me so thanks for the suggestions!
ReplyDeleteThose hampers do look pretty amazing! And I love the idea of a gift that gives twice!
ReplyDeleteSeaplane lunch please, I'll take two! Great ideas :)

I find the distance from family makes them even harder to buy for but the want for gift cards seems to becoming more and more common. Great ideas there.
ReplyDeleteAll fabulous ideas! Love the name of that shop, we have one similar in town. I don't go in there often, but love it and love that they have something for any budget.
