Overview

A bespoke gift hamper is a great way to tailor gifts specifically to someone’s interests, whether they’re a curious crafter, green-thumbed gardener, or barbecue lover.

Hampers are especially handy if you’ve left gifting to the last minute – just head in-store and you’ll find everything under one roof so it’s easy to pull together a gift that feels unique and personal. Here are five of our favourites.

Tip: Take it one step further and tuck in a Bunnings Gift Card.

Steps

1Barbecue lover

Set your favourite chef up for summers spent outside with a gift hamper full of handy barbecue utensils and accessories.

Start with the all-important barbecue tool set with an apron – the essentials for any enthusiastic grillmaster. Add a half-barrel planter for a sophisticated storage option that can also double as your hamper basket.

Over-cooked and under-flavoured steaks will be a thing of the past with a wireless thermometer and two types of barbecue rubs, while foil trays make transporting the beautifully cooked cuts from the grill plate to the kitchen plate easier than ever. Expand their repertoire with a pizza stone set, transforming any barbecue into a pizza oven!

2Indoor plant lover

If your friend, family member or colleague has a green thumb but lives in an apartment, an indoor plant gift hamper is a great way to encourage their growing addiction.

A plant stand elevates a regular pot plant into a statement piece, while garden gloves and a trowel make refreshing soil and re-potting easier than ever, especially with premium potting mix and mist + feed solution included. And don’t forget safety – add in a five-pack of respirator masks for protection when using potting mix and materials.

A ceramic egg pot is another gorgeous addition to any room, creating a statement piece for their soon-to-be flourishing plant babies.

3Herby haven

There’s nothing better than herbs you’ve grown yourself – and with this handy ‘grow your own’ gift hamper, your family and friends will soon be enjoying the fruits (or herbs) of their labours.

Encourage them to test out their skills with a collection of seeds, including thyme, rosemary, lettuce and oregano. With a mini greenhouse, complete with seed tray, you’ll be giving them a great growing environment.

A watering can, gardening gloves and potting mix wrap things up nicely, while a plywood crate acts as the perfect rustic hamper.

4Arts and craft for kids

Illuminate the imaginations of mini Monets and potential Picassos with a hamper full of crafty fun! A mosaic round plate craft kit and acrylic paint markers encourages kids to get creative with colour, while a hanging planter D.I.Y. kit is sure to offer a fun craft challenge.

For something a little more hands-on, air-drying clay is bound to entertain for hours, especially with a 10-pack of acrylic paints and a paint brush to bring their new creation to life. Classic crafting items – such as pop sticks, Mod Podge and craft glue – make sure they’ll always have a new activity to try. Store your hamper in a fabric insert – not only does it make for the perfect hamper ‘basket’, but it can also double up as arts and crafts storage

5Arts and crafts for adults

Getting creative isn’t just for little ones – arts and crafts can be a relaxing activity for adults, encouraging a different type of mindfulness.

Create space for your loved ones to discover their inner artist with a gift hamper full of hands-on activities and useful crafting accessories. Start with a craft timber box to store all your goodies in, filling it up with self-adhesive film, clear spray adhesive and flat craft paint brushes. Premium paints and clear gloss mean they are ready to paint at a moment’s notice, flexing their creative muscles on paper or with a D.I.Y. kit. This concrete letters kit satisfies both function and form – once they’ve finished, it can be hung from the front door or on a mantle. As a final touch, make sure they are protected with a pack of respirator masks

Health & Safety

Asbestos, lead-based paints and copper chromium arsenic (CCA) treated timber are health hazards you need to look out for when renovating older homes. These substances can easily be disturbed when renovating and exposure to them can cause a range of life-threatening diseases and conditions including cancer. For information on the dangers of asbestos, lead-based paint and CCA treated timber and tips for dealing with these materials contact your local council's Environmental Health Officer or visit our Health & Safety page.

When following our advice in our D.I.Y. videos, make sure you use all equipment, including PPE, safely by following the manufacturer’s instructions.
