Who well can I expect to do with an online website selling specaility gift baskets for women?

I want to sell speciality gift baskets for women. Including, lotions, bubble bath, candles, chocolates, and many more items.
--------------------
I am thinking that you may do well, however. you should check your spelling before you submit your question. You have a few words misspelled there. Sorry, I just had to let you know that.

Would anyone be willing to pay for custom made gift baskets?

I enjoy making gift baskets and I was considering making flyers and posting them throughout chicago (where I live). I would like to have a couple premade for holidays. But I mostly would like to make them at the customers request with thier opinions on how they would like it. Do you think it would work as something extra to do?
--------------------
I think that's a great idea. You can even sell those on the internet and start your own home based business. I live in Chicago too and I know a lot of people here who would like something like that. I think you should give it a try. I honestly think you'll have a successful business doing that.

What is the "actual" name for the clear adhesive thats gummy thats holds products into gift baskets?

Similar to the baskets that Wal Mart sells with bath and body products hooked into baskets. The adhesive is clear, gummy and removes off the product easily. Please help I am putting together gift baskets and want the items to stay in place. Also, where can I find this stuff?
--------------------
Its a type of glue that soft sets-- ergo it's called soft-set glue

Do I need a liquor license to sell wine in gift baskets in Missouri?

I want to sell wine by the bottle in gift baskets or maybe just by the bottle as a gift. They will be sold out of MO, and will only constitute about 10% of my sales. I need to know if I need a liquor license to do this and if so, what classification of liquor license will I need. Also if you know all this...How much will this cost?
--------------------
Yes, you will need a liquor license, but it will depend on if you are selling at a brick and mortar location (you will need a site license) or if you are delivering. I am not certain about delivering but the site location would be very similar to a bar license. I would imagine it would cost a few hundred dollars for the application/processing but will also tax each unit that you sell. A good way to find out more info might be to contact a local winery and see if they can assist. They would be interested in trying to get you to sell theirs, so you could make it mutually beneficial. If you want to venture this on your own checkout http://www.atc.dps.mo.gov/index.asp

What other Marinated Cheese recipes can I put in my Christmas Gift Baskets?

Someone gave me the idea to include Olive Oil Marinated Feta Cheese in my gift baskets that already include: Homemade pickled garlic, homemade honey butter, rum butter, bread, and Rice Crispy treats. I loooove the Feta cheese idea however, I found out that feta cheese is pretty exspencive. Do you think i can use Cheddar or jack? Or do you know a similar recipe for something along the same line as marinated cheese?
--------------------
How about: Marinated Mozzarella 1 pound fresh mozzarella cheese 1 tablespoon parsley, coarsely chopped 2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped 1/2 cup strong olive oil 2 teaspoons lemon juice Cut the mozzarella into 1-inch cubes. Place in a bowl. Add the parsley, basil, oil, and lemon juice and toss to coat. Let sit at room temperature for 3 to 4 hours before serving.

How do I send gift baskets to other tribes in Spore?

Hi, I know how to receive gift baskets, I just don't know how to send them :S The game keep telling me to send a gift basket to another tribe to please them or something ^^
--------------------
1. Make sure you are in Social Mode. 2. Move your screen to the village you want to send the gift to. 3. Select one (or more) of your creatures from the right hand side of the screen. 4. Right click the target villages food storage. You should see an icon of a green gift box. 5. Your creature(s) will then take a gift of food to the village. Gifting is good for getting a village from any kind of hate or dislike to at least neutral. I haven't tried gifting a neutral village to see if it lifts higher, but I'm betting it takes direct social charming to get the village to ally.

Who hates those gift baskets that are all looks and nothing really good inside?

These giant gift baskets that are all stuffed with fancy shredded paper, foam inserts and gilded ribbons. Yet the food in them is pure crap. Stale crakcers, boring cookies, some cheese and salami that is rubbery and tasteless. Yet they charge hundreds of dollars for these things. Rip Off!!!!!!
--------------------
I know what you mean, I have gotten and even been guilty of giving these types of baskets. I did get a great gift basket one time and I made sure to find out what company it was from. It was Baskets Beautiful, Inc they have been my resource for gift baskets ever since. You should definitely check them out.

If Im making gift baskets with fudge in it how long will it last?

Im making different fudges and chocolate covered pretzels ect for gift baskets for family , how long wil the stuff stay good? When should I start making it if Im handin them out on Christmas and the day after
--------------------------------------------------
If you are using heavy cream in your fudge then it won't last as long without being kept cold. If you are using the marshmallow creme method then if you complete the fudge at room temp. then it will keep for a couple of weeks. If it lasts that long. I am also giving fudge and I started it today which I will be giving on Christmas day. Hope your fudge comes out great. Everyone will love the gift.

Gift baskets?

I want to make a gift basket for my uncle for his Birthday... i thought of getting him a bunch of diffrent beers as hes a real manly man type guy who has beer with every meal

OKay so the qustion is does anyone know where (online or in Toronto, ontario) I could get a cool bakset type thing to put the beer in im open to suggestions as well on how to persent it. I was thinking of putting it in a new tool box and wraping with with selo but he has a tool box so anything along those lines....
--------------------------------------------------
My husband recently had to have a tool bag (bag for carrying tools on an airplane) when he went to another site to work and had to carry his tools with him. You could get him one of these for when he might need to take tools from toolbox to another area or a tool bucket (also for carrying tools). Then go to a place called world market (they sell international beers) and get him some beers from there and put that in the bucket or bag.

Gift baskets?

trying to sale bath and body gift baskets
--------------------------------------------------
is that your own business, or are you doing that for someone else. If it's your own business, before you started that business you should have done your "five year plan" and you can find that at sba.gov. When you do that you determine how much money you'd need for advertising (and other things) and then borrow that amount.

Gift baskets are popular for the holidays (like Christmas, Valentines Day)...and the other times of the year are like Mothers Day...and other times it's for those ill in hospitals.
If it's not your business and you are only in sales, then get with some gift shops at the hospitals and see if you can get them to sell your baskets for a small profit for both you and them.
