Christmas Gift Basket with Fresh Flowers

Looking for the perfect Christmas present to give this year? A gift basket is fun and easy to put together. All you need to do is find a basket or a Christmas container and put a few things in it. Make it extra special and beautiful by adding a fresh flower. Some things that you could put in the gift basket in addition to a bud vase with a single flower, (such as a red Gerber daisy, rose, or lily), include: a Christmas movie, a Christmas book, Christmas tree ornaments, holiday cookie cutters, and/or treats. You could also do different themed gift baskets. For different themes you could use include: snowmen, gingerbread men/women, Santa Clause, the Nativity, Christmas trees, or Reindeer.

For a snowman themed basket, include a storybook about a snowman, snowman cookie cutters, and snowman shaped cookies and treats. Decorate the basket with blue and white tissue paper. Include a bud vase with a white flower accented with cedar or pine. Maybe also include snowman ornaments, candles, and/or figurines. A snowglobe would be perfect. Be creative! If you are having trouble filling up your gift basket, just go to a store that sells holiday decorations. The items are usually sorted by theme, so all you have to do is put the items you see in your basket.

To assemble the gift basket, first attach the bud vase in the container with floral clay. Then, if you use a wicker basket, use some festive Christmas tissue paper or other pretty paper to line it. Also, there are lots of square and rectangle wicker baskets available at craft and hobby stores that are lined with holiday cloth. Last arrange the gift items in the basket so it looks pretty and appealing. This would make a great gift for a coworker, teacher, sibling, or that person who just seems to have everything.
