How to Put Together Your Own Perfect Gift Box for Anybody & Any Occasion!

10 February 2023 

Stuck on gift ideas? No worries! Eco-friendly gift boxes and more are a great way to mix it up and make your loved ones feel special. This idea might seem complicated at first, but putting together a gift box is actually really straightforward, fun and gratifying. Whether you are showing appreciation, expressing congratulations or wishing someone a happy birthday, a gift box can be catered to any occasion. Simply select a theme, gather your chosen gifts and beautify your box to create the perfect present! Alternatively, you can buy a premade gift box that has been designed for special occasions and special people.

Whether you’re looking to build the boxes yourself or pick one that’s pre-made, you can find and curate amazing eco-friendly gifts and more at IOco Gift Designers.

Why We Love Gift Boxes?

There are so many reasons why gift boxes are the best. If you’re like us, you love watching the joy on a loved one or friend’s face as they unwrap the gift you chose for them. With a gift box, this experience becomes even better. Imagine the fun your friend will have going through their gift box and discovering one thoughtful present after another. Gift boxes also give you the opportunity to shower your loved one with a unique collection of items that reflect their personality. As an added bonus, putting these gifts together is often super fun, and you can even decorate the box to suit your taste.

Our Favourite Gift Box Ideas for Everyone in Your Life

1. The Beauty Queen (or King)!

Have a loved one who just adores glitz and glam? Why not give them what they want? At IOco Gift Designers, we have diamante hair clips and shoe clips to jazz up any ensemble. Our accessories are perfect for the friend who never wants to be underdressed, and always wants to sparkle! This friend will also love our diamante water bottles and cups, which come in a variety of colours to really stand out from the crowd. For those who love makeup, our reusable makeup pads and bamboo beauty buds will come in handy both at home and on-the-go too.

2. The Jokester

We all have that one friend who just can’t take anything seriously. The jokester of the group deserves a gift box that’s just as funny — and this is where we can help. At IOco Gift Designers, we have a range of kooky, clever and comedic gifts from which to choose. These include fun accessories like our animal cartoon earrings, as well as gag gifts such as the booze bangle, basketbeer bottle opener and toilet bowl light. Our recycled cardboard animal sculptures are a dream decoration for those who enjoy playful, unconventional types of interiors too. Anyone who likes a spontaneous party will also enjoy the mobile disco beats USB to take the party with them, wherever they go.

3. The Eco Warrior

Buying a gift for the eco warrior can be tough. People who are especially conscious of the environment tend to only invest in useful items they need, rather than disposable items they want. A lot of people are also against the use of wrapping paper, as it is generally used only once before being discarded. However, none of this means that our eco-friendly pals should be deprived of gifts. Fortunately, an environmentally conscious gift box provides the perfect compromise! With a gift box, you can gift your friend with a range of useful and eco-friendly products they’ll love, all encased in a decorative box for them to reuse.

For starters, every eco warrior needs one of our glass water bottles to ensure they stay hydrated all day. Our glass coffee travel cups are also a fun and practical gift that will make single-use coffee cups unnecessary. If your friend is often on the move, they’ll benefit from adding our bamboo cutlery to their reusable collection, as well as our bamboo or metal straws. All of these items are sleek, stylish and easy to store — perfect for a handbag or lunchbox.

Similarly, our cotton mesh grocery bags can be conveniently kept in your handbag or car for whenever you need them. We also offer bamboo beauty buds and reusable facial wipes to reduce everyday wastage. And if you’re still looking for something small but useful to add, check out our stainless steel pegs. Our collection of reusable products includes items to suit all kinds of people, so you can create a gift box that is perfect for your loved one.

4. The Gym Junkie

It can be difficult to find gifts for the gym junkie that aren’t huge, expensive pieces of exercise equipment. Fortunately, we have a variety of smaller and more affordable items that will keep your fitness-obsessed friend happy. Our hydration goal water bottles, for example, will help them maintain their hydration goals, while our doggy baseball caps will keep their best friend protected from the sun on that next run. Your mate will also be thankful for our bamboo charcoal pouches, which act as shoe smell absorbers. For something a bit sillier, we also have the Meet Me At The Barre tank, which is designed to be comfy and lightweight for gym use.

5. Mum

Determined to get your mum the gift she deserves? Curate an intricate and thoughtful gift box, and you’ll show her just how much you appreciate her. We have all kinds of sweet gifts that will make your mum happy, including the decorative water birds for sprucing up pot plants. For something she’ll use everyday, we also have gorgeous reverse umbrellas and cheeky flat water bottles. You could also add a glass coffee travel cup, as well as an owl tea infuser to match. With so many styles of bottles and cups to choose from, you’ll have no trouble finding the perfect thing.

6. Dad

Dad’s are notoriously hard to buy for — but IOco Gift Designers are breaking tradition. Our glass coffee travel cups go down a treat, as well as our very handy book page holders. We also have novelty ice cube trays, which come in a variety shapes such as soccer balls, skulls and diamonds. Our customers also enjoy gag gifts such as the beard catcher and basketbeer bottle opener, both of which are great for all dads.
