My Friend just got a new baby:get him a Gift basket or gift card?

Should I get him & his wife a baby gift basket delivered to him or should I just mail him a card enclosed with a gift certificate? I figure a gift certificate would be better, since for the gift basket, there is a deliver charge and the items in it are charged at a premium anyway, so a gift certificate would be more "economical" for the same price as the gift basket. Opinions?
--------------------
id say a gift basket because its more thoughtful and it shows you took the time out to give something nice to their newborn. although if money is an issue then just a simple gift card would work. but id say a hand made gift basket with a few knicks and knacks in it would be a really thoughtful gift to the family.

what the best size of Plastic Wrap to use for wraping gift baskets?

.................
--------------------
The kind of plastic you need is called shrink wrap.You place the basket in the center, gather the sides up and secure at the top. The wrap is then shrunk to tightly enclose the basket. You use a crafters heat gun, the type used in scrap booking, to accomplish this. The shrink wrap is available in the larger craft stores.and I believe it is 24" wide. You can also get a larger 100' or 500' long X 24" or 36" wide at www.dickblick.com. They call it shrink film.

Should I send my former boss a "Congratulations" card and gift basket for her new baby?

I just found out that my former boss gave birth. She's on maternity leave but I want to send her a congrats card and maybe something small for the baby like a small gift basket. First of all, is this APPROPRIATE? and second of all, where do I send it since she's on maternity leave and isn't in her office. I dont have her home address or anything like that.
--------------------
I would say sending it would be appropriate depending how well you got along with her and if she considers you a friend or just a former employee...to me that sounds kind of personally . And as far as sending to her office I would find out if they would forward it to her sometime soon or would it just stay there until she gets back Maybe they would know how you could send it so it gets there

--------------------
Hmmm, maybe check antique stores or garage sales for an old guitar case? Today I saw a guitar pinata at the party store. That would be cool! Wrap small gifts in sheet music? CD of guitar solos - you can maybe find online and download? Or check dollar stores, they will probably have a lot of cheaper, plastic guitar items.

What can I put in my starburst gift basket?

My teacher LOVES starburst more than you can imagine so for the end of the year gift I am going to give him a starburst gift basket. I am stuck on ideas and would really like some help. I am going to put in starburst candy (obviously) and a starburst squishy pillow. Thank you so much
--------------------
Since I've done gift baskets for a living, might I suggest that you not make it very personalized as the implications could cause problems. Things like tea or coffee, cookies, the Starbursts, pillow and since he is a teacher some type of pen and pencil set and maybe a crossword puzzle or a book of some sort. That way you have given a nice gift without it being suggestive in any way. AsetMekti

Where can I find a gift basket?

I am looking for an emergency gift basket for a party. Anyone know where I can get a food gift basket without waiting 5 days for it to ship?
--------------------
Can you assemble it yourself? Basket and celllophane wrap, tie from craft store (or beg basket from a friend or neighbor, or buy at Goodwill and clean well). Then buy gourmet items from a grocery, or nice fruits or whatever. Many groceries and some florists have gift baskets available and may even deliver them locally. Probably 24-hours or less to have it ready.
