gift basket for mothers day...?
my mom is starting a new job where she will be in an office. i want to put together a gift basket for her for the new job. im thinking, a thermos for coffee, some pictures of the family for her desk...but i cant think of anything else. any ideas???? supplies like post-its and stuff are out cause the office will supply those... any help is great!! thankss
--------------------
Get her a pretty coffee mug instead of a thermos. Some individual popcorn bags, a small plaque with a witty saying on it to get her through the day. A small bottle of hand lotion would be nice. A decorative box of tissue she can keep in a drawer. A nice picture frame is a great idea.

Ideas for gift exchange?
Okay, I need a gift exchange item. It has to be unisex and the limit is $15, but I'm willing to spend a few more bucks for a good gift. I'd like to get something useful or fun, but can't come up with anything. Here's what I don't want: gift cards liquor no gift baskets with cocoa, tea or whatnot. lottery tickets Thanks for your help!
--------------------
Target has this valet for 15 and it is awesome. I just bought 2, one for me and one for a naughty santa gift. The website sells the same one I bought for 28. but in the store it is 15 with the charging station.

gift basket for her ---girls only?
ok i like this girl and i want to get her a gift basket for her birtthday . shes turning 14 and were FRIENDS only she doesnt like me for sure and if she fouind out i liked her shed hate me so nothing romantic or flirty
--------------------
Give her a new DVD or a great new book and put it in a cute bowl (you could get one at Target, Walmart, or even dollar store) Include candy, popcorn... Books... I guess it's hard to know what she has or doesn't have. Twilight is a great series that almost every teenaged girl loves. She may like the Vampire Academy books Fablehaven The Uglies series (the Uglies, The Pretties, The Specials) Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants DVD: something cute BEE MOVIE The Incredibles 101 Dalmations something funny like Monty Python Holy Grail something fun like 10 Things I Hate About You Freaky Friday (with Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis) Take the Lead Harry Potter Pirates of the Caribbean XMen

Gift basket for mothers day...?
So, my mom is starting a new job in an office and for mothers day I want to put together a "for the office gift basket" sort of thing. I plan on getting a coffee thermos thing, a picture frame with a picture of my family...and im not sure what else. ANY IDEAS??? anything will help. Thank youuuu :)
--------------------
Well you could of course add office supplies, such as a stapler, staple puller, pens, post it notes (the ones shaped as hearts, flowers, etc are cute!), you could also add some of her favorite candies/snacks. Also you could add some small things that she could eat with her lunches. I don't know about her work environment, but if she would be allowed, maybe a cd with some of her favorite songs (i know my mom can listen to music at work as long as it isnt offensive). Also, I don't know if she would have a bulletin board but they make really cute push pins now as well, in different colors and shapes. If you are getting her a coffee thermos, maybe her favorite creamer, if she likes it? Or a small container of her favorite coffee.

looking for ideas to fill baskets for a church auction. men, women, kids, couples... I need your creative side! help!
--------------------
ahhh - let's see - been a while since I did a basket, but.. For a man - sports viewing snack basket - add a banner from a popular local sports team, get a gift certificate from a local pizza delivery place, assortment of chips, nuts, etc. For a woman - pampering set - get various bath products, back brush, loofa sponge, lotions, a unique towel and washcloth set - Target has these cool appliqued ocean creatures- and a scented candle. Couples - romantic getaway basket - couple of wine glasses, a local wine (everyone has a local wine now!), gift certificate to a good local restaurant and if you want to make it an expenisve basket, a gift certificate for tickets to a local theater production. assortment of high end crackers, cheeses. Craft basket - pick a craft, fill it with supplies for that craft - popular ones - beading, quiltng, scrapbooking Kids - outdoors basket - chalks, bubbles, sandbox toys, nerf balls, water guns, frisbee, freezer popsicles Doll basket - make it like a bed - I actually have a pattern for taking a container and making it into a a "purse' that turns into a dolly bed. Car(toy(basket - Hot wheels used to make all these neat little sets for roads, buildings, etc Pirate basket Dress up baskets - boys baskets and girls baskets - a cape in bright colors for either (have a pattern for that too), a robin hood cap or pirate hat, a sash, easy to make "skirts" with elastic waistbands, a pirate shirt, a wizard hat and robe, plastic sword, fairy wings, wands, etc - all kinds of things like that. All these could be fairly expensive to compile, especially if you can get donations for those gift certificates. If you would like the patterns, contact me.

What is a nice gift to mail to a friend who has cancer?
My friend, sadly, has cancer. She is so young (in her twenties). What are nice ideas for gifts I can get her? (Keep in mind that I'll be mailing the gift since she lives far away, i.e., it can't be a fresh basket of fruits, etc.). Also, what are ways in which I can show support?
--------------------
It is hard to say, but I suggest you think about what she would like or what she has liked in the past. Don't focus on the fact that she has cancer. The gift is for her not the cancer.

It depends on how much money you would like to spend . . any technology gift such as a Kindle or Ipod would be welcome . . laptop of course (maybe too expensive but she might appreciate software or a computer game). If you are watching your pocket than you might consider sending a nice warm and pretty quilt or blanket to wrap up in. Other things she might appreciate at this time . . scarves, fuzzy socks, big soft sweater, her own mug or water thermos she can refill . . a carry bag filled with items she might need in the hospital such as lip balm, lotion, toothbrush, toothpaste, throat lozenges, pad of paper, pen, crossword puzzles, and maybe small snacks. You can show support by just being her friend . . treating her the same way you have always treated her. Call her. Send email. Send cards. Just be her friend.

What is the best gift you recieved at your baby shower?
I'm putting together a basket full of things like bottles, diapers, wipes etc for an expectant friend and want to know what everyone's favorite gift that they recieved. (I also plan on doing a camera and some store gift cards for formula or whatever others forgot.)
--------------------
I think the most thoughtful gift I received for my shower was a silver spoon and fork set along with a Baptism outfit. My gramma got us a really nice keepsake baby knitted blanket. Other than that diapers and wipes were the most useful.

What goodies do people actually want when they get their holiday food baskets?
My family is planning to do more this year to stock the local food pantries. What do people want and what are they going to send back when it is their turn to donate next year. We want people to be happy for the holidays, not to plan to "re-gift" food.
--------------------
I have no idea what a holiday food basket is.However, I think you should buy what you like and that should be a good start.

Making a gift basket...?
I'm making my boyfriend's parents a gift basket for Christmas. I know I'm going to put wine in it, but I don't know what else to add. Please help!
--------------------
A really good cheese that matches with the wine, a small cutting board and knife for the cheese, crackers, and fruit. Or, to be a little unusual, a good port with chocolate, pears, and brie or a port cheddar. If you can find nice glasses to match the type of wine/port, even better! Add a tablecloth and napkins and candles for an indoor picnic basket.

I wanted to give a small gift to all parties involved with my home purchase. Yes or no?
I got some great feedback from the community regarding whether or not to give a gift and someone reminded me that I will shelling out tons of money to all parties involved and that any gift would be too much. I should simply keep every dollar in my pocket. I was planning on sending a fruit basket or something. But that will ultimately costs me money. If you have ever given your realtor or mortgage broker a gift, what have you given them?
--------------------
Hi, I am a REALTOR and I would never expect my clients to give me a gift. I have made a commission on the sale and in most cases made a new friend....that is plenty. The best gift you could give your REALTOR and Mortgage Person is a referral to others...so that they have more business. In fact I am so thankful when my clients help me find new clients, I normally give them a gift. Really if you like them so much...tell everyone you know how happy you were with them and give their business cards to everyone. If you ask them for business cards so that you can give them to your friends and family....I promise you will see so much happiness in their eyes, you will know you have given them a gift back. I am so glad you had such a wonderful experience. Congrats on your new home!!!!
