I enjoy making gift baskets and I was considering making flyers and posting them throughout chicago (where I live). I would like to have a couple premade for holidays. But I mostly would like to make them at the customers request with thier opinions on how they would like it. Do you think it would work as something extra to do?
I think that’s a great idea. You can even sell those on the internet and start your own home based business. I live in Chicago too and I know a lot of people here who would like something like that. I think you should give it a try. I honestly think you’ll have a successful business doing that.

Well, I know that I would like one or maybe two, but that is only if I lived in Chicago. It does sound like a good idea.

Of course, people love stuff like this and people will buy things like this at no cost. I sell gift baskets for newborns. I start at 10.00 and end up anywhere to 200.

I thinks that its a great idea make sure you take pictures of the ones you make and keep them in a binder that way it gives people ideas on what kind of basket they like and that way you can show what kind of work you do on them GOOD LUCK!!!!

Yes, alot of people do that. You could do theme baskets for people who like certain things. I think the key is advertising professionally, and then your reputation and word of mouth will do the rest. Good luck! And I have bought them before as a thank you gift.

Hi,
You need to get a business license in your area. You, also, need to carry liability insurance, just incase someone gets one of your baskets, gets sick, and decides to sue you.

Some people just don’t have the talent to make their ideas attractive. I think it’s a great idea. People know they want to give a gift for the kitchen or garden then end up with a box of odd items. If you can assemble these in an attractive container, you’ve got a sale-able product. Marketing will be the problem. People with money (the ones that are willing to pay for your service) may be less likely to be checking out the local bulletin boards of light posts. Put some together, get good pictures and try to get them noticed by the right people. Make up a business card. Donate one to a charity auction and be sure your info is listed in their booklet. Be sure you price them high enough to cover your costs and time. Sometimes it seems crafters do a lot just to cover the cost of our supplies.
Best of Luck with the new venture.

Oh Yes and you could also sell them on eBay.

I would be interested in them, but I live in upstate SC, so I can’t help you by buying any. Perhaps you could advertise them via local colleges, once school starts back. Both Universities that my sons attended have had advertisements sent to parents by locals who make such things. Good luck!!!
