7 Personalized Easy-To-Do Christmas Care Package Ideas.webp

Merry Christmas! It's now officially gift-giving season. During the holidays, we all make an extra effort and care to make our loved ones happy. Trying to craft the most adorable snail mail is the first step in ensuring a smile on their face.

Christmas themed care packages do the trick. It's a collection of holiday treats packaged in a cardboard box or basket. These packages come in various sizes; for example, a small one might contain 3–4 gifts, a medium package typically holds 5-7, and a large one might've 8+.

These packages can be in any way you want, such as a package of hot cocoa and coffee collection, a spa set, or a seasonal breakfast set. 

But isn't it too much work to spend several hours during this busy season looking for the best Christmas care package ideas? If so, why not just get to the good stuff? Hers is some of the best suggestions for people of all ages and interests. Consider choosing one from these.

1. DIY AIR PLANT POTS

Things Needed

  • Wooden doll heads (the one with flat bottom)
  • Spade drill bit (1″)
  • Dye
  • And lots of air plants!

To put this Christmas care package idea into action, you'll need a little deftness with your hands. Grab the ball from four sides and drill 1′′ hole in your doll heads. Slowly press the drill allowing it to do its work. Mix different amounts of dye and water in a small container. To get different patterns, dip your pot into the mixture several times over the course of a few minutes.

Who is it perfect for

These miniature green wood-potted air plants are ideal for your plant-lover friend or someone who enjoys accessorizing their balcony railings, bookshelves, window ledges, and desks.

Cost of package

$5-$10

2. THE SELF-CARE SET

Things Needed

  • Mailer Gift Box in Full Color
  • Scented Soy candle
  • Scented bath bomb
  • Natural lip balm
  • Handmade soap
  • A glass jar filled with colorful matches

If you can't find a mailer box, you can easily make one out of a cardboard box and wrapping paper. To protect it from damage, put all the items in the box on top of the shredded brown paper.   Include a lovely card with your own special holiday message. Check out these messages if you need help writing the perfect wish.

Who is it perfect for

You can get this comforting Christmas care package for friends, your sister, your mother, or even coworkers. An overworked person who is already on a tight schedule due to the holiday season will appreciate this self-care package the most. I even bought one for a friend's bridal shower. On Facetime, she was crying happy tears.

Cost of package

$20.99+

3. THE GOURMET SET

Things Needed

  • Ham Summer Sausage and Beef Sage Sausage 
  • Hickory-Smoked Bacon and Pepper-Seasoned Bacon
  • Maple Ham Breakfast LinksHow To Do

You can get readily available packs for the holidays. The Swiss Colony sells the entire package in various sizes. However, I recommend purchasing them from a food store because the individual items in the Swiss Colony package are somewhat smaller than what I would generally prefer. In local food stores you can mix and pack different items according to your taste though it may take more time. 

Who is it perfect for

This assortment is perfect for any foodie who enjoys savory flavors and smoky, tasty pork for breakfast. Anyone (non-vegan), foodie or not, will appreciate the unexpected delight of Sausage 'n Cheese Bars. Even better, buy one for yourself so you can enjoy a flavorful Christmas morning breakfast.

Cost of package

$30+

4. MISSION: IMPRESS THE KIDDO

Things Needed

  • Christmas Story or Picture Books
  • Hot Cocoa or Hot Cider Mix
  • Christmas Mugs
  • Christmas music
  • Christmas Socks
  • Board games such as Life or Jenga
  • Christmas Pajamas
  • Santa Hats or Christmas headbands
  • Reindeer Food

For story or picture books, you can get The Night Before Christmas or Dora, The Explorer. A Christmas mug and Sillycow Farms hot chocolate are a perfect pair. Barenaked Holidays is a wonderful selection of Christmas music for children. For board games, Jenga and Life are two excellent options to include in the gift basket. And most importantly, you can't help but make presents for kids with Christmas socks, pajamas, Santa hats, and reindeer food.

Who is it perfect for

The kiddo in your family will be the most excited person to receive this package during the Christmas gift exchange.

Things Needed

  • Stainless steel tumbler
  • Wool socks
  • Hygge scented candle
  • Seasonal honey
  • Holiday chocolate bar
  • Decorative ornaments

In a brown flat-rated box, fill it halfway with off-white shredded papers. The essentials for this package are a layered pillar Hygge scented candle and a jar of seasonal honey.  Who doesn't like to curl up in front of the fireplace on chilly nights with a cup of hot cocoa? Hygge, like a warm hug, gives a sense of comfort, coziness, and serenity. On Amazon, you can find everything you need, including a candle, a honey stirrer, socks, and a tumbler. I love the holiday chocolate bar from Seattle chocolate. On Etsy, you can check for wooden ornaments with floral patterns. I also recommend including an envelope with your holiday greetings or Christmas letter. Don't forget to wrap the gift box in craft paper.

Who is it perfect for

This package is best suited for your long-distance bestie and is very on-theme. Even the cottagecore girlie in your life or your mom will love this Christmas present.

  • Snowman or snow globe decor

  • Snowman Pez candy treat
  • Mike & Ike box of candy
  • Ghirardelli peppermint bark & dark chocolate 
  • Metallic hanging snowflakes

With all of your snowman or snowflake decorations, stick strictly to the winter theme. Fill the box with the recipient's favorite chocolates and candies. Of course, a snow-themed gift set would not be complete without a "let it snow" sign and a ton of metallic snowflakes.

Who is it perfect for

If you have a family member who left home for their freshman or senior year of college and won't make it to the holiday celebration then this is the package for them. I recommend not going overboard with this idea if they are supposed to visit at some point during the holidays.

$50-$60

Finally, I just want you to know that it doesn't matter how much or how little you spend on Christmas presents. They are simply a token of affection and in reality, are only a small part of the holiday season. If you spread an aura of gratitude and appreciation around you, even a greeting card with your sincere messages will make your loved ones melt. It's only the memories that matter. That is where the ultimate festivity lies.
