Imagine
: you’ve scrolled the Internet to find the perfect Diwali gifts online, only to find there is no uniqueness or creativity. As usual, you get to see dry fruits in boxes, generic sweets, and uninspired packaging. Now, what will you do? We have an idea. Why not make them yourself at home? 

DIY hampers convey uniqueness, add a personal touch to your gift, and show your creativity in a way that store-bought gifts simply can't match. In this guide, we’ll be suggesting some out-of-the-box hamper ideas to make Diwali gifts unforgettable. 


Stay tuned till the end…

A Hamper Full of Crackers

Diwali and fireworks go hand in hand, so why not gift them? For those who enjoy the twinkle and dazzle of crackers, create a cracker-themed hamper. For that, you can include a safe mix of sparklers, flower pots, and chakris. Additionally, you can top it with a handwritten note for each family member. 


For instance, you can mention how a particular individual’s presence brings light to your life and how important they are to you.

Sparking Lights Hamper

Bring the festival of lights to life with a hamper that literally glows. This is only possible by lights, be it a colourful light bulb, fairy lights, paper lanterns, floating candles, or 

Rangoli lights. 


This hamper would be an ideal choice for those who love decorating their space and creating a festive atmosphere, instead of going all out with fireworks.

Aromatic Candles Hamper

Who doesn’t love fragrance? A hamper having numerous candles with various scents or smells can create a calming touch to the overall decoration. Why aromatic ones when we can literally use their cheaper versions, i.e., unscented ones? 


It is recommended because aromas can instantly change the mood, evoke memories, and create an inviting environment that your guests will love. The types of candles you can include are as follows: 


  • Candles in a jar. 

  • Tea light candles in a decorated holder.

  • Small, cute candles in the shape of a diya or matka candles.

  • Essential oils or diffusers.

DIY Rangoli Set

 DIY rangoli sets are a perfect hamper to be served as a Diwali gift. It could be an ideal choice for creative souls. Wondering what will go in this hamper? Leave that on us. To make it a wholesome hamper, you can consider adding things like:  


  • Colourful pigments, rangoli colours, gulal, or an eco-friendly version of rangoli colors.

  • A set of stencils having different designs, shapes, and sizes. 

  • Diyas and tea light candles to top the rangoli. 

  • A brush set or small rangoli tools, like a colour powder bottle, fillers for floor rangoli, and a rangoli filler stamp.

  • A small handbook with simple rangoli patterns. 

Conclusion

When it's Diwali, nothing can beat the joy of giving Diwali gifts and money (shagun) to the loved ones. The festival of Diwali is something we all wait for, and creating innovative hampers, as stated in this guide, can make the celebration even more joyful.


So, this Diwali ditch those traditional sweets like kaju katli or soan papdi (we're all done with) and the old-fashioned way of getting Diwali gifts online. Hence, give something that generic store-bought gifts often lack.
