We are taking a different approach to our holiday gifting this year. Instead of selecting individual gifts for each member of a family, we’re creating family group gifts via gift baskets. Many of our loved ones no longer have young kids, so giving specific toys to each kid is no longer needed. By making a personalized gift basket for each family, we can include items for every member to share and enjoy. And hopefully, they will make great memories while enjoying the treats!
Generally, we start with a beautiful, reusable basket the recipient can repurpose in their home and this in itself is a gift. We also love including a throw blanket; we believe there’s always a need for more throw blankets, especially in households with multiple family members. They are great for adding to the home décor, whether it’s a seasonal style or color, and of course, they are great for cozying up during a family movie night. As for edible treats, we like to include hot chocolate and holiday-themed snacks for the kids and tea, coffee, or wine for the grown-ups. Another treat we include is special maple syrup in a beautiful bottle that Candice picked up directly from a farm in Vermont. And, we are sure to remember the canine or feline family members as well, by including toys or treats!
Gift baskets can be created in any theme or style that fits your recipients. Some of our favorite themes include home spa day, family game/ movie night, travel essentials, winter cozy, hostess gift, and of course holiday baskets. We always have fun making gift baskets for our families and friends. And this holiday season, why would that be any different?
