I am thinking about making a themed gift basket for my mom for her birthday and the only two ideas I have came up with are a pamper yourself basket or a movie night basket. I have some ideas of what to put into each, but just looking for other ideas from you guys on what could go into each basket and also what other basket ideas do you have or have personally done or recieved! Thanks so much.

I want to make my mil a gift basket for christmas. She loves wine so I though I would make it centered around wine. How do I make everything stay put in the basket and what are some ideas to put in it besides wine?

I just started a gift basket business and I have my prices set already. Small - $10, Med-$15, Lrg-$20, but that is just for basket and decor, then I charge a different price for the themed items I put in the basket. Which is usually another $30 at least. Does that sound reasonable to you, because a few of my customers at first thought that was to much, they always want a $20 basket, but they don’t realize when you add up the basket, decor, items, card, delivery, and taxes, that $20 is pretty unreasonable. Should I advertise it differently? I would appreciate any suggestions

I am making the gift basket just for HER, no baby stuff in it. She can’t take a bath for 6 weeks afterward, so there is no bath stuff. So far I got slippers, pedicure stuff, nail polish, scented powder, face mask cream, shower gel, loofa…..

I am trying to think of more things to put in it for her, but I can’t think of anything else. I have already spent about $40, and I can’t really spend much more. I just want to put a few more things in there to fill the basket.

Any ideas?

I am looking for factual information on the demand for gift baskets. Anything would be a help, but it has to be related to the business, like “Total sales in 2006 were $20 Million”, etc…
