What kind of stuff is good for a Christmas Gift Basket?

M cubed asked:


I am wanting to make a Christmas gift absket for my new boyfriends mom. We have been dating about three months, she’s a really sweet woman who doesn’t drink, and I have been to a few family events already. I know for sure a candle of some sort but beyond that I am stuck. Please help :)

    Since you’re not the lady’s daughter-in-law or anything, I would keep it simple. Maybe a candle, some nice hand soap, potpourri, and some chocolate.

    Maybe a nice cup and some hot chocolate mix.
    Ornaments
    slippers/scarves/mittens/hats
    Maybe some nice chocolates

    It’s really sweet of you to think of your boyfriend’s mom.

    Hope that helps! Good luck :)

    For some reason oranges always remind me of Christmas, so put an orange in there
    Nuts, maybe candied pecans
    make a cheese ball and put in some crackers and a cheese knife set
    a nice christmas ornament
    You can dip pretzel sticks (the big thick kind) in chocolate – yum!
    some fancy hot chocolate like Hazelnut’s really good
    you said you’re already putting a candle in there so how about a candle holder?
    does she like coffee? a gift card to star bucks or where ever

    If you’re putting any food or goodies in it, it means a lot more if you make them yourself and it will impress her too.

    I always give my mother in law a gift basket for christmas. You could do a spa basket. Some things you could include a candle, loofa, body wash, lotion, slippers,….

    You could also do a basket of favorite things like chocolates, a mug, hot chocolate mix and/or an assortment of teas, cookies, crackers…

    I’d suggest taking a look at the Gifts for Her section at BisketBaskets.com.

    I’ve gotten several gift baskets from them over the years and they’ve always been beautiful. Based upon your description of her sweetness, why not get her something that is as sweet as she is? BisketBaskets.com has candy and cookie bouquets, candy gift baskets, tea gift baskets and more that I’m sure she’ll just love.

    I hope this helps!
