You're not the only one Nermal03 that likes to think of things like this ahead of time. This might sound pathetic, but I start thinking of my Christmas baking in January! I love making and giving goodies to friends and family around Christmas time and always love trying out new recipes.
Here are a few suggestions on how to go about packaging and giving out the goodies. One year after Christmas, I bought some plastic holiday containers from Walmart that were on clearance and I stocked up on them. Then the following Christmas, I bagged up the individual goodies and put them in the container. After doing that, I put the lid on the bottom of the container and then wrapped the container in cellophane and tied it with ribbon and curled the ribbon. It looked really neat and people seemed to really like it.
We've bought some more supplies for this year's goodies for Christmas. We bought some krinkle paper and some shrink wrap from www.uline.com . We also bought some clear plastic containers, they were a set of 3 containers in descending size and what I think I would do with them is fill up each container and stack them in a pryamid shape and tie them together (kind of like what you see in some of the fancy stores).
I hope these ideas will help you out.

I like friends/family to see the variety of things I can bake.... What can I say? It's the one thing I do well! I also love to see the faces when they try something new and really enjoy it... I remember one year I tried a butterscotch/chocolate chip/rice krispie treat candy-like "log" that actually caused my uncles to fight over the last piece.... : ) Not that I want to cause holiday fighting 
but, they loved it!
