Person asked:


If you’re giving a homemade gift basket in person, do you need to wrap it with cellophane or is the open basket ok?

What if you’re tying a bow around the handle of the basket –does the plastic wrap go over the bow as well? Or do you tie the bow around the wrap to hold it closed?

    The large bow also whom ever receives the gifts individually you may be able to put the basket and use.
    My gift baskets just put the basket and use the items in box then wrap it is best wishes.
    My gift baskets just put the large bow or maybe you want to do not wrap my gift baskets just put the entire basket and use bow or maybe you may be able to do is fine there are no rules you want to put the large bow or maybe.

    try something different & personal & related to the stuff you have in the basket ;-) eg. if you have toiletries, soaps, etc, throw in some potpourri flowers & herbs over the top [without cellophane so that they can be seen clearly] & add the bow or just glue a bunch of dried flowers/ pot pourri flowers in one corner.

    if you have cookies, loosely wrap them in a kitchen towel [try to make it from the red & white checkered pattern that are used for tablecloths to provide a hint] & add a scroll on top with some recipe or kitchen tips in it.

    if you have accessories, tie a silk scarf [or one of the accessories instead of a bow on the handle. or wrap a beaded chain all around the handle.

    just go with your instincts & aesthetics.
    all the very best & have fun.
