I don't want to do the normal food, chocolate , same ol same ol stuff. does anyone have any ideas of what would be good to also put in the basket?
My mom is moving away and i want to make her a gift basket, and suggestion's?
When I moved, a friend of mine made a very cute gift basket that included some little momentos but also had some household items I would need right away at the new house. She said it was the stuff people forget to take for the first night in a new house.
--roll of toilet paper
--hand soap
--paper plates and napkins
--pizza coupons
--Kitchen %26amp; Bathroom wipes
--cd of "move in" music to keep them working
--lightbulbs
--batteries
It was cute and I ended up using much of what she gave me. Hope this gives you a few ideas or a good place to start.
Reply:How about making home made items? You know, things you all like to do? Maybe origami, or painting, or writing, etc. Parents love to have homemade things more than anything you can buy. This way, it'll show her how much you care and will always give her little reminders of all of you. Hope this helped! =]
Reply:I suggest an address book and maybe some stationary so she can write you.
Reply:I did in sept a basket for my mom and made it a relaxation theme with aromatherapy candles etc .. Maybe a personalized greeting card, a family video with everyone on there wishing her a farewell, take a family photo and have a t-shirt or mug made with the picture on it! A homemade coupon book with coupons like just thought you were in need of one of my hugs hugs, here's a coupon for a lifetimes of hugs when you need it! Just felt you needed to hear these words so here's one coupon for a lifetime of I love you's and pictures on the coupons!Just get creative girl with these coupons! Well ,sis I hope this helps!
