A Mothers Day Gift Basket

Fill a Mothers Day gift basket for your mom with one of these great ideas! Any container can be turned into a delightful gift basket for mothers day. Choose one and then start collecting the items to place inside.

Picnic Basket - Fill with a brightly colored set of plastic dishes, some pretty napkins and a meal like one of these:

• Gourmet chicken or pasta salad, crusty loaf of bread, sparkling juice or wine
• Taco salad, chips and salsa, fresh melon
• Chicken tenders, coleslaw, potato salad and chocolate cake

Make sure to join her for a Mothers Day picnic!

Decorative Mixing Bowl - Tie a large, colorful ribbon around a set of wooden spoons; add a brightly designed oven mitt, a package of coffeecake mix, and a flavored coffee. 

File Box - Purchase a large variety of greeting cards and organize them inside the files. Add a couple of nice pens or markers, some stickers for envelope decoration, address labels, and some pretty postage stamps.

Cosmetic Bag - Fill with makeup, lipsticks, perfume, lotion, and if you want to splurge, a gift certificate for a manicure or haircut.

Mel's Pick - Design It Yourself Gift Baskets lets you select exactly what goes in to your container plus most of their baskets ship for free! Their site is easy to use and doesn't take long at all. That's my kind of company.
