What Does A Woman Want?
Guys, are you mystified when it comes to gift shopping for your special lady? No worries! Women are easier to please than men think, aren't we ladies?
Now think about it, we women love to be pampered, we love chocolate (LOL), we love our hobbies, causes and pets. An occasional surprise, showing appreciation for what your loving lady does for you is always a thrill. Uhmmm....we love sparklies too! hehehehe...(had to get that in there, girls)
Seriously, a well-thought out homemade gift basket is a sure-fire, quick and easy to put together gift for a woman. It reflects thought and effort, which women appreciate!
Let me show you easy it can be to put together a wonderful homemade gift basket for women!

Don't Be A Basket Case!
Do you HAVE to use a basket for a gift basket?
No way! You don't have to use a basket to make a gift basket!
Let your imagination roam free! There are as many possibilities as there are stars in the sky. Ok, ok...I'm gushing.
Let's ponder some of those possibilities then.
Is your lady a crafter? How about a storage bag, box or basket for her craft supplies? Then fill it with some of her favorite crafting items, tools, a gift certificate to her favorite craft store, a DVD to watch while she crafts, etc. Tailor it to her favorite craft (scrapbooking, knitting, crocheting, etc.)
How about that gardening woman? Why not get her a garden tool bag or bucket and fill it with garden gloves, pretty garden stakes, some new garden hand tools, maybe some flower seeds? One of my favorite Valentine's gifts was a straw hat that had a floral denim tie with some new garden clippers, flower seeds, and new PINK garden gloves! LOL
See how easy that can be? Look over the rest of this lens for more tips and suggestions for homemade gift basket ideas for the lady in your life!
And visit my Cello In A Box store for all the accessories you need to make gift wrapping a breeze. Our listings have even more ideas!

Fetching RSS feed... please stand byThe Spa Experience Gift Basket
Now what woman wouldn't be delighted with a luxurious spa gift basket. It doesn't have to be expensive, either. Here's some tips for items to include in a spa basket that will help your lady unplug from the world and unwind in her own personal spa.Spa bath baskets can offer bath salts, soaps and lotions, nail and body brushes, loofas, body scrubs and bubble baths. Women who like fragrance might also love calming scented candles, incense and/or potpourri.
What can you put the items in? Well, a pretty basket is just fine, but why not a huge brandy snifter? She can fill it with potpourri later!
Keep in mind that spa suggests tranquility, relaxation, luxury, and pampering and you can't go wrong!
The Aromatherapy Gift Basket
We women love fragrance. An aromatherapy gift basket can include scented candles, incense, potpourri, sachets, essential oil products and more.How about lavender eye pillows, sachets, essential oil lotions, creams, etc.?
How about a soothing candle and matching incense or a fragrance lamp? Mmmm...
How about all those things, in a basket with some pretty slippers and a book she's been wanting to read? Ahhhhh....can we say relaxation, girls?
The Death By Chocolate Gift Basket
I'll take three...to go please....hold the gift wrap
Need I say more? Come on! If the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, the way to a woman's heart is with chocolate!This is a gift basket for emergencies! It's a gift basket for a rainy day. It's a gift basket for a celebration. Ok, it's a gift basket for every day. LOL
Seriously? This is a super fun gift, sure to light up any woman's day. Grab any fun container and fill it with the most creative "chocolate themed" items you can find. Then, all around it, include a variety of the best chocolates you can grab.
OMG....I'm drooling....tissue, please...TISSHHOOO!!
Warning: This is not for sharing. It's hers, you hear me? All hers! Don't touch our chocolate and no one gets hurt, ok?

Gift baskets are such great ideas for gifts. We have friends that we give a gift basket to each Christmas. I buy little things for it when we are on trips and then put it together at Christmas time.
