Have you ever thought about giving a personalized Gift Basket?Is it just me or do you also get excited when you give a gift to your friends and family and you know they love it!
The downside you give a gift and you just know they hate it! Unfortunately you can’t always get it right because what seems right and appropriate gift for you isn’t always right and appropriate for person you are buying for.
Take my mother for instance, if you don’t buy her a gift say for Mothers Day you will be in bad books for weeks. Now before you agree with her, let me ask you this “What do you give someone who has everything”? If you could walk around this ladies house you would understand my problem!
Well over years I have learnt how to stay in her good books by creating something different and unique every year. I also like to make it a gift that I make, so its personal and comes from heart. Yes you guessed it a personalized “gift basket”.
Leading up to occasion, I take some time to think about things that Mum has said she liked over year and things that she has pointed out in a book that she might like. Then I go about looking for items that would fit into a theme that I can put together into a “Basket”. She loves “glass bowls” so I try to use a glass bowl as “basket” for my gift and then fill it with items that she likes. It could be as simple as some pampering items or a night out to movies such as popcorn, candies, a drink, chocolates and two movie tickets etc.
