Mothers Day

April 27th, 2009

Turn Mothers Day into a GREAT DAY

The history of Mother’s Day is centuries old and goes back to the times of ancient Greeks, who held festivities to honor Rhea, the mother of the gods.

Mothers Day is an important time of year for us.  We find it is one of those gift giving times that truly shows the value of a gift Hamper.  Often people think about the alternatives like Flowers or Chocolates but our customers tell us they really don’t convey the emotion or sentiment that a Hamper can.   We try to help our clients turn Mothers Day into a truly special day by ranging our gifts to help pamper mum give her a special treat or the “Ultimate Indulgence” on her special day.

Mothers Day also forms part of our Gift Registry service we recently launched.  In essence we offer a Bridal Registry service for gifts and the people you give them to.  Whether you are a company or private individual, if you give us the dates, the occasion and some other details we’ll take care of the rest for you.

Hampering Around works closely with a number of partners to provide gifts that meet the needs of our corporate clientele, one of these partners is Superleaders.

Superleaders has a publication that provides readers with a unique insight into the minds of Australia’s top leaders.  Through this style of gift we endeavour to delivery something that nourishes the body and the mind, a gift with a practical application that can be used by companies to;

  1. Give a gift to their staff that will enjoyed and has lasting appeal.
  2. Differentiates them with their clients by giving a gift that is unique and is practical and of high quality.

We are continually looking for new and interesting gift ideas that we can both offer as part of our standard range.  We also have a number of clients who have specific requirements that we customise gifts for.

Choosing the right gift?

April 14th, 2009

We are often asked by our clients for assistance with choosing a gift.  There are the obvious considerations such as price/budget and occasions.  Once our clients outlines these two requirements we usually discuss;

  1. Sweet   or Savoury focus – what does the person like?
  2. Where is it going to? what style of gift will travel best and arrive in the best possible condition to the receiver?
  3. What message or emotion is the giver trying to convey and how do they want the receiver to think/feel upon receiving the gift.
  4. What message would they like on the gift card.

These discussions are had by us with people from all over the world in particular Expatriate Australians in Asia, the USA or Europe who want to send a meaningful gift to someone with ease.
