Last Minute Gift Idea!

So, the item you thought you were going to get that special someone sold out or is on back order, don't despair!  Make them a gift basket!  Gift baskets are great gift ideas because you can personalize them to fit the recipient.  Sports, hobbies, new baby, new home, just married couple, etc.  You just need to pick up a few things for that person, get a "basket" (I like to buy small plastic storage boxes from the Dollar Store because they have a secondary use) a little shrink wrap (available at most crafts stores) and some ribbon.    If they are into exercising, you can add energy bars, protein shakes, small 1 or 2 pound dumbbells, etc.  If they are in a new home, you can add Eco-friendly cleaning products, small gift certificates to a home goods store, dish towels, first aid items, etc.  (This will work for a newly married couple too.)  Be creative and have fun!
