How To Make Gift Baskets by Jennifer Geary
Learn to make lovely gifts baskets for holidays, Christmas, birthdays, or get well presents. Create beautiful themes for gourmet and other food baskets, gift present baskets, and other ideas for beautiful unique gift baskets.
Brainstorm and create Fun Themes for Gift Baskets
? For anyone in general, think about their hobbies and interests.
? Separate the adult themed basket ideas and think about the holiday or occasion for the gift.
? Teens have different interests and might enjoy gift baskets centered around their favorite book, beauty supplies, band, movie, movie star,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], "hope chest" items, chocolates, cool school or art supplies, sleepover items, cool school or art supplies, or scrap-booking goodies.
? Younger girls might like their favorite color-themed basket, Barbie or Bratz themed items, craft items, baking goodies, or games.
? For a boy, a perfect gift basket could be centered around sports, cars, spy items, a favorite book series, spy items, etc., as would a video game related gift-pack.
Start with a Container
? Pick an appropriate size, style and color, with deep enough for filling in the bottom with items you have in mind. A basket with or without a handle is totally up to you.
? Containers for children include brightly colored toys, like dump trucks and plastic sand buckets. Check out the local store's toy isle for ideas.
? Other containers include metal buckets, pretty pottery, big bowls, sturdy decorative boxes, and ice buckets. Items which can be re-used or have a functional household or play use is always fun.
Choose Items to Fill the Gift Basket Once a Theme is Picked
? Shop for small items to go with the theme chosen. For example, a Pirates of the Caribbean themed basket could contain pirate "gold" (chocolate coins), a Pirates notebook, a DVD, a Johnny Depp poster, etc.
? Gift baskets can be as small or large as you like and depending on the price the buyer is willing to pay. You can go huge and glamorous or sweet and simple. The sky (maybe the budget) is the limit.
Making Beautiful Basket Tips
? A quick trick for large baskets is to fill the bottom of it with packing peanuts. It gives the illusion of a fuller basket and makes the gifts sit higher so they are easier to see. Think about safety when putting in extra filling and making a basket for a child.
? Use tape To hold some items in place, to the basket handle,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], attach them to each other, or to the container. Keep things still by "sinking" them in a bit into the filling in the bottom.
? On top of the 'peanuts', place a thick layer of huge and glamorous shiny shred, gift-bag or basket filler, or tissue paper. Don't be afraid to overfill the basket. It will increase with wight as gift items are added.
? Keep the biggest and tallest items toward the middle or back of the basket. Be sure the basket has balance in weight and arrangement.
? Make sure the paper or shred shows through to fill out the look of the basket. Continue arranging gifts and keep filling in with more, if necessary. Add little items such as wrapped candies, Christmas ornaments, silk flowers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], pine cones or whatever works with the theme. Gift cards are a good filler additions too.
The Gift is Ready to be Completed When the Arrangement Looks Pleasing
? Crafts shops or dollar stores carry clear cellophane bags made specifically for baskets. They can be found near the wrapping paper. Gather at the top of the basket and tie with a ribbon if using a bag. Above the ribbon, leave some of the plastic fluffed out. Add a matching trinket or a pretty bow. Be sure to tape the bottom of the bag tight to the basket so none of the plastic is sticking out.
? Instead of cellophane, you can simply add a bow.
? Finish it off with a gift tag and deliver!
Other Tips:
? If using fruit, deliver quickly after the basket is made because it will decay quickly. Let the recipient know so they can gift it as soon as possible.
? Use your favorite recipe or recipes found on my blog for adding homemade cookies or candy.
? Other items to add could be Sweet Love Words and Quotations for words to go in your notecard or in the basket itself.
? Search birthday party themes and entertaining themes for ideas for different types of baskets.
? Most importantly,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], remember the pets!Topics related articles：
