Gift baskets and more.........


Looking to make a gift basket this year? How about trying a different way of presenting it. Instead of using a wicker basket this year, try some of the ideas below!

Laundry Basket - these come in so many shapes and sizes now - ideas are limitless
Trash Can - make this one funny - fill with all new clothes and hangers
Large Cooking Pot - fill with recipe cards, utensils, certificate for cooking lessons
Shoe Box(decorate it)- personalize this basket and put some small items in it
Toy Box - your kids will love this filled with lots of fun toys
Picnic Basket - fill with glasses, candles, a coupon for a date
Water/sand Pail - fill with beach towel, sunscreen and tickets to hawaii
Helmet - fill with football tickets, scarf, gloves and a number 1 hand.
Tool Box - fill with new tools, certificate to Lowes


Think outside the basket on this gift idea!

Retro Candy from when you were a kid! The perfect hard to find gift!!!

A good deed....


The holiday seasons are approaching! A gift does not have to be in the form of a present wrapped up. This year through out the holiday season look for every opportunity to give a gift of a good deed. You see someone in need of a couple dollars for groceries in line, hand them a $5 dollar bill. You see someone walking down the street who looks cold give them your coat, scarf or gloves. You probably won't know it but your good deed will probably be passed on from one person to the next. So today, tomorrow and so on lets look around us and see who could use some help and pass on the being good to one another!
