Ok, so money is gonna be VERY tight this year, so I thought about doing homemade gift baskets for some people. Im trying to think of something Unique and not the ordinary hot chocolate, cheese, and such baskets. The main people I need help with are my sister and step sisters (12, 13 and 17), my mom and step dad and then one for my best friend her husband, her step daughter(12) and her son(10 months) I am kinda crafty, so ANY advice/tips would be GREATLY appreciated!! Thanks
here are some ideas!!
The girls (12,13,12):
Get 3 cute small makeup bags
Fill them with,
- a little bottle of lotion
- Some burts bees lip balm – they have cute little bags available with a lib blam and gloss
- travel mirror
- some hair elastics/clips
- a bottle of nail polish
- and a nail file
The baby boy:
get a soft bag (like those plush ones) or sew one
fill it with,
- a plush book
- a stuffed animal
- a soft blanket
Mom:
fill it with anything she likes, does she like cooking? buy a pot and fill it with a timer, molds, measuring spoons, and a small cook book.. does she like sewing/knitting? Get a wicker basket and fill it with assorted yarn, needles, pins, thimble, and some thread maybe even a gift card to Jo.Anne fabrics or something.
Step dad:
Fill it with anything he likes, does he like sports? get a sports tote and fill it with a jersey fo his favorite team, a foot ball, a gift card to a sports store, and a pair of socks. Does he like reading? get a book bag and fill it with a gift card to Barnes and Noble, a favorite book of his, make a custom book mark… anything he likes.
Best friend:
again, fill it with anything she likes. Does she like beauty stuff? Get a makeup bag and fill it with nail polish, lip balm, a pretty shade of lip stick, lotion, nail file, and nail clippers.
Best Friend’s husband:
again, fill it with anything he likes…
hope I helped
