Crabtree & Evelyn Christmas Sets
I used to think that Crabtree & Evelyn were too “old lady” for me. Then, I grew up and suddenly, they made some of the best sets and hampers one can get for Christmas presents! I always wait for Christmas time when Crabtree & Evelyn would release their sets and coffrets at value prices. Believe when I say that the prices are great for the items you get.
Above all, the packaging is gorgeous, and I think that this year’s is especially good. The packaging looks more sleek and tailored compared to last year’s and less flowery too. Not every girl likes flowery chintzy prints.
The other thing I like about Crabtree & Evelyn are their food hampers. Their biscuits are delicious! I especially like the Stem Ginger one – a little on the sweet side, but the crystalized ginger bits are lovely to bite into and remind you of warm kitchens, cold winter days and standing by the farmhouse sinks looking out into the cold snow blanketing the ground. Yep, that was the first time I tasted stem ginger biscuits so stem ginger biscuits have a special place in my heart 
The other thing to look out for is Crabtree’s Christmas scents for the home. Contained in home fragrances, candles and various other items for the home, it imparts a delicious spicy smell around the house which epitomizes Christmas but not in the tropics because I find that the smell dissipates very quickly.
The Crabtree & Evelyn Christmas sets go on sale starting from November 29 2008 so check out a store near you for the value sets whether for yourself or as a gift!
