Housewarming Gift Basket


Housewarming baskets are one of my favorite gifts to make, the possibilities are endless! The first step is to think about what the recipient likes. If you don't know, go with basics like cheese plates, oil and vinegar, cheese knives, wine, napkins, dishtowels (we call them mopina's), coffee and mugs, cookies, or snacks. Our recipients enjoy wine and candles, so I went with that theme and added wine glasses, dishtowels, glasses and some wine scented candles.

Best hint- find a cute sign, a must!! Christmas tree shop is usually a great place to find gift basket items!!

Once you have all of your goodies, find a basket or crate (which the recipient can use after opening) that fits everything. Grab cellophane wrap or the amazing cellophane gift bags and wrap it up with beautiful ribbon. Attach your cute sign and done!! You can do it, I promise!! Your gift will be a hit since it's from the heart, don't tell them how simple it was to make!!
