Ideas for Christmas gift baskets with homemade liqueurs? So my girlfriend and I made some homemade limoncello awhile back just to make it, and it was pretty darn good. One of friends and I couldn't stop drinking it on my birthday. It tasted like an expensive liquor and you couldn't taste that strong bite from the vodka. It's cheap and easy. We found some recipes to do a Berry Cordial, which is done in a similar fashion, and also a coffee liquor. We want to make some gift basket ideas, where we add chocolates, homemade jams, nuts and other things. Some will have the homemade liquor in small bottles, and packaged with a bottle of wine, or champagne... the others will be packaged in wine bottles, and will be the main component of the gift. SO, what are some ideas to put in these gift baskets? so far we said we can have biscotti and chocolates with the coffee flavored one. Homemade jam (small jars) with the berry one... and maybe an Italian themed gift basket with the limoncello. Please give me ideas of what to put in the baskets. Thanks
Other homemade Christmas gift basket ideas? I'm making homemade Christmas gift baskets this year.

Any ideas of something that is easy to make and not costly that I can add to the baskets? Thanks! =D

Ideas for beach wedding gift basket? (Ideas in general?)? We're having our wedding in Oregon (where I grew and half my family still loves) on the coast. Most of our guest will be traveling from Ohio and may stay for at least the weekend, some for a whole week. We obviously will not be able to entertain them the entire week but will have get togethers and events the weekend of the wedding. Instead of a tin of mints or some favor that will be thrown out anyways I'm having the hotel put gift baskets in all the rooms of our guests. I want to include things like bottels of water, sunscreen and a lst of locations to visit and things to do in the area (with directions and contact info). But I'm at a loss on other things to include as well as what to put everything in. I am on a budget but I dont have too many guests and it will be one basket per couple/family). Any idead would be greatly appriciated. Also any beach wedding ideas or experiances would be lovely. Thanks so much! So many great ideas! Here's list so far: Bottled water Sunscreen Salt water taffy A mix cd of songs my fiance and I like (or are beach appropriate) A list of place to visit and things to do in the area (complete with directions, and contact info) Some info on the tidepools in the area and the creatures that dwell there. (Should be fun for the kids to go out and try and find the animals). An itenerary of wedding activities throughout the weekend and a welcome note from my fiance and family. And some sort of kids package, most likely some cheap sand toys. Me and my fiance spent lost of time at the beach building sandcastles with my little cousins, so this will be cute. Thanks for all the great ideas! Keep them comming!
Out of town guest gift basket ideas? I live in Las Vegas and I have several guests traveling from Florida. In addition to the travel time, there is a significant time zone and weather difference. On top of the normal gift basket items (the fun stuff), I would like to incorporate some items that will make their stay in the desert more comfortable. Things they may not even have expected they would need. I will definently include lotion and chapstick. What are some other items that are important when traveling a long distance and to a place like Las Vegas. I want to select items that are appropriate as a wedding gift basket though. I don't want it to just look like the dollar travel section at Target.
What kind of interesting containers has your school used to make raffle gift baskets? I need some ideas!!? I have to come up with 13 creative themes for the Ice cream social fund raiser this year. Each Pre School class(parents) will donate to the themed basket. Baskets can be very creative containers such as a wheel barrel and a "family garden" theme. Can anyone come up wiht some other ideas that I can present to the class teachers? Thank you for your help. DeAnna P.S. sorry i could not find the appropriate category. School fundraisers would of been perfect!!! Thank you so far to 4 awesome creative gals. But, I don't have the themes yet. That is part of the question. Then a cool LARGE container to fill up with theme items. We have 13 classes and last year the baskets were worth hundreds of $$ each. The parents either donate $$ or items and the parent liason for each class (one mom) puts it together/shops for all the stuff and I just wanted to be prepared for the classes usually over 1/2 that can't come up with a theme on there own. I am loving the garbage can idea perhaps one of those that collapse to put it away. We did a wheel barrel last year so maybe gardening won't be accepted this year???? That is another concern. The board will OK all themes so to make sure the classes are all unique and no one is duplicating anything. Thank you and keep em coming.. can use the help. Large Container idea's and clever things to put inside I thought of a "automotive" pkg 4 dad and use the "creeper roll around to put everything on & Coleman Stove-campg'

Are there any more ideas of what to add to gift baskets of personal travel size top of the line products? We've started making pretty packages with travel size items practical for weekend travelers. We are marketing them at small craft fairs and flea markets.

Also, we are putting them in flattish round baskets? Would any other kinds of packaging work too? This is just to add a little extra to our incomes.
