My Cousin is turning 16 need some gift ideas to go into a basket?

My cousin is turning 16 in a few weeks, she and I are very close and I would like to do something special for her. I was thinking of a gift basket and putting a bunch of different things in it. Does anyone have any ideas of what I could/do for it. I have a few but need some more ideas!
--------------------
I got several ideas for that: 1. If you know her style of clothing you could buy a couple of neat tops, roll them up decoratively (like flowers for example) and maybe decorate them with a couple of necklaces or something like that... The number depends on your budget. or 2. Go ahead and make a spa basket. Get some spa supplies and lotions of a fragrance she'd like... Some pedicure stuff, some manicure stuff, some skin care stuff, nicely smelling soaps, bath salt, foot massage stuff, etc. Depends on your budget how much you do... Just make it a variety. or 3. You could make her a make-up and facial basket with facial masks of all sorts and make up supplies... I like the other 2 ideas better though.

How can I shrink wrap a home made Christmas gift basket.?

I have a large gift basket made up but want to shrink wrap it so it will look more professional.
--------------------
They make colored and clear wrap like celophane, you should be able to find some. Check your local dollar store. Anyway, use that, and then tie tons of ribbons around the top, and curl them. Create a bow or buy one, and make a tag. Will look great :)

Where to buy a basket to use for gift basket?

What things should I put in a Vera Bradley Tote for a gift?

I bought my girlfriends Vera Bradley totes for their birthdays in October, and wanted to know what kind of things I could put in them (that is inexpensive, I already spend a fortune on the totes) to fill them up and make them kind of like gift baskets. Any ideas?
--------------------
Fill them up with things your friends would like; maybe one's a chocolaholic, you could fill hers up with chocolate. Or if one's a bookworm, you can buy some books for her. Earrings or other cheap jewellry from Claire's would be cute too. They also have those cute pouches of herbs that smell really good at the dollar store. With a bit of creativity, you could probably fill each tote up for $10 or less. Try heading to the dollar store, they have really cute little trinklets there.

Feminine and Masculine gift basket ideas for parents?

My mom and dad are polar opposites when it comes to "things to do." I want to do a gift basket of some sort for them. What can I do that incorporates feminine and masculine things into one inexpensive basket. I already did a movie basket for another family couple, so I cant do that. Help!

I have been dating a guy for a few months- I am geting him a nice red wine and would like to incorporate in a gift basket for his birthday with 2 wine glasses and some other items- any suggestions?
--------------------
All of the cheese and cracker or chocolate truffle ideas are good, if you are looking for more of a gift than a picnic, you could try candles, and a CD, if you know his type of music choose that, otherwise maybe a new jazz CD, something you guys could listen to while you sip your wine.

What would you want in a guest gift basket?

I'm having a destination wedding in Cancun and I want to make gift baskets for all of my guests for coming so far. I have a few ideas so far: tequila, shot glasses, cameras, travel-size first aid kits w/plenty of pepto for the mexican food, sunblock, lip balm. Any suggestions would help, especially from guys.
--------------------
I don't know if I'd go as far as putting in the Tequilla...that could get expensive, depending on how many guests you were having. A few maps of the area would be a good idea...with places of interest highlighted, in case your guests wanted to go sightseeing on their own. Bottles of water wouldn't hurt either...wouldn't want dehydrated guests!! You could also try to put in soe local favorites...cookies or snacks that are found in Cancun.

Should all illegal aliens receive a gift basket upon crossing our borders?

I think we could at least provide them with some complimentary gifts to make them feel more welcome. Here's some things we could put in each basket: Drivers license Insurance card Social Security card Get out of jail free card $10 gift certificate to Wal-Mart I know it's not much, but it's the least we can do for our unwelcomed guests... right?

LOL, I think the libs are passing those out now ! SAY NO TO THE DREAM ACT, or the welcome basket will have a voucher for a free college education in there too.....
