Gift Baskets:Create Simple Easy Gifts For the Person Who Has Everything!

Have you ever thought about giving a personal Gift Basket?

Is it just me or will you also get excited when an individual give a gift to your friends and family and you know they like it!

The downside you give a gift and you just know they hate it! Unfortunately you can’t always understand it right because what seems right plus the appropriate gift for you isn’t always right and suitable for the person you are getting for.

Take my mother in particular, if you don’t buy her something special say for Mothers Day you may be in the bad books intended for weeks. Now before you accept her, let me ask you this specific “What do you give an gent who has everything”? If you could walk around this ladies house you would realize my problem!



Well over the years I have learnt how in which to stay her good books by creating something different and unique every year. I also prefer to make it a gift that we make, so its personal and arises from the heart. Yes you got it a personalized “gift basket”.

Before the occasion, I take some time take into consideration things that Mum has said she liked over the year and things that my wife pointed out in a e-book that she might like. Then i go about looking for things that would fit into a theme that we can put together into a new “Basket”. She loves “glass bowls” so I try try using a glass bowl as the “basket” for my gift after which it fill it with items of which she likes. It could be as straightforward as some pampering items or even a night out to the movies like popcorn, candies, a drink, chocolates and two movie tickets and so on.

Gift Baskets can be all size and shapes, you are only limited by your imagination and naturally your budget. A gift basket doesn’t need to be big and elaborate it might be something small. Presentation is the real key to a stunning gift basket!

I have always struggled with “creative talent” and once I discovered that making gift baskets was very simple, I became a talented person overnight!

Something I have found funny since i learnt how easy it was to produce a “Gift Basket” is how numerous friends copy my ideas and present baskets to their friends.

I give “Gift Baskets” for all occasions - from Christmas in order to Marriages, Arrival of a New baby, Birthday Gifts for Boys or Girls, Leaving Party in fact the reasons are endless.

For a children birthday, how easy is it to obtain a bucket, spade and sand looking equipment. A cool towel, hat or cap (write their name about the hat to give it a unique look), a stick of sunscreen or zinc cream. Then wrap it up!!

For a girl, they love many knick knacks or things they might make. Try putting together packets of beads in a very container with compartments. Include a number of wire and hooks. Your local craft store will let you with the items required. You can create this “Gift Basket” cheaper than $15. 00 and they like it!
