Good Day People’s Christmas Hampers are the Gift Everyone Secretly Hopes You’ll Give
Move over dry panettone and regifted chocolate boxes, Good Day People's curated hampers are a cut above.
One thing they don’t tell you about becoming an adult is the genuine excitement a hamper can bring. Elevated snacks, gourmet bits and bobs, decadent spreads, wine that isn’t from the bargain bin —all the things a weekly grocery budget doesn’t allow for. Give us a hamper over a regifted journal or another tube of hand cream any day of the week.
We aren’t talking just any old hamper, however. Weird chutneys, stale shortbread and cheap candy canes have no place in our Christmas dreams. The hampers we’re coveting are the kind from Aussie brand Good Day People. These bad boys are the Rolls-Royce of hampers. Curated to perfection and heaped with boutique Australian-made gifts, this is our Chrissie gift of choice.
A Hamper For Everyone
Founded by Sydney locals Jacob and Sarah Jane Leung, Good Day People is shaking up the hamper game with design-forward, environmentally conscious, small-batch-stacked hampers. Inspired by the lack of high-quality hampers when trying to send gifts during COVID, Sarah and Jane set out to fill the gap.
When we say they have a gift for everyone, we mean it. They’ve got over 80 curated hampers to choose from, ranging from specific curations for alcohol-free gifting to hampers designed for crafty folk and skin lovers. They’ve got all price points covered too, with prices starting at $35 and travelling all the way up to $50. Want to see which ones we will be shopping this Christmas? Read on for our top picks.
