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?
--------------------
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.
