Creating our 2024 Christmas Hamper Gift Range

Come behind the scenes with us to discover how our product and marketing team worked on the 2024 Christmas hamper range which we think is our best collection yet!

This year's range has unique hampers to gift to everyone during the festive season and covers all the price brackets. Secret Santa gifts for colleagues, delicious hampers for friends and family and generous gifts to say thank you to your corporate clients with. It's been an extra busy year here at Hay Hampers, we've toured through counties, created food boards and grazing tables aplenty and strategically balanced objects to get those "perfect" shots! Scroll down to find out how the brochure and collection all came together after a year where no one could be together.

Behind The Scenes

After last Christmas didn’t quite get everyone in the festive spirit with everything going on in the world, the Hay Hampers team worked around the clock to deliver a magical and merry range. From creating magical hot chocolate scenes to sparkly smoked salmon sets, July was certainly not the typical summer month here at Hay Hampers. All the team pulled together to get the “perfect” shots with even our director, Judith, holding trees and lights just at the right angle before hiding in the background! Hannah and Katy created boards of delicious foods and warming winter drinks which can be seen on the feature pages of our Christmas brochure!

Location, Location...

Hay Hampers toured the counties of Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire to get lifestyle shots for the various categories which make up our 2024 Christmas hamper range. Travelling to a cosy rural village just outside of Grimsthorpe to an old converted pub steeped with history and character. The perfect location to create a cosy, country scene for our cover page. Arranging and re-arranging charcuterie boards and crystal glasses of fine wines in front of a roaring log fire while temperatures reached 25°c outside! You can even watch us create and capture this shot on our Instagram highlights under BTS. The video's of crackling fires are a lot more pleasing on cooler days rather than in the heated summer months when we recorded them!
