Do you offer guft hampers

I’m trying to buy several gifts as thank yous for teachers, and spotted loads of lovely pamper type gift hampers on the site that cannot be named, with lots of little products and treats in them, that would be perfect. I wanted to support my fellow folksy sellers so I typed in gift boxes/pamper boxes etc in the search engine, and it bought up crotchet baby boots and other completely unrelated items!!! After 30 minutes of searching I gave up and went on another website.

Before I order elsewhere, does anyone have any products that might be suitable? I need to buy for several people (budget from £10-40 pp). I do wish Folksy had a better search engine….

My deadline for ordering is Friday

Selling hampers filled with bought in items falls foul of the ‘Assembled items’ rule so you won’t find as many on here as elsewhere. But you will find some gift sets containing things the seller has made themselves. Try searching for ‘gift set’ … or ‘selection’ brings up some likely things.

Just an idea - you could buy some individual pamper items on Folksy, and then put them into little bags, also from Folksy, to make nice and unique gifts

I typed in Gift Sets on Folksy and got some nice bundles.

Hi Natalie, regarding the “treats”, do you mean food & drink consumables? Like packs of sweets, tea bags etc?

Not food - It was more things like nice smelliest/eye masks/handmade objects etc.

@trawdensoapkitchen does bundles of eg soap bars or lip balms - perhaps you could buy some of those and then divide them up into gift bags.

(I know I’ve seen people selling eye masks on folksy so if you wanted those you could order them separately)

I make gift hamper pots that are easy to fill with goodies. I’ve just sold a few so low on stock, but can easily make to order.

I make cute Rainbow Bracelets and have plenty of stock if you want buy separately to make your own gift sets up. I could offer a bulk purchase to save on postage costs.

I often buy a big pack of items like soaps or trinkets and divvy them up into hampers/goodie bags I put together myself, it’s a bit more faff but a bit more personal.

If you’re shopping for teachers who are into mythology, I have a set of pencils you can separate out: Artemis and Athena 6 HB Pencils Greek Mythology... - Folksy

There aren’t many here, this is because folksy ( unlike the other site) is for handmade only… and most craftspeople specialise in one or two crafts…. It’s unlikely ( but not impossible) to find a maker that sews, makes soaps etc ( with the required health and safety requirements) and has the time to design , keep stock, then photograph and bundle it all together…
