If you are one of those people who loves spending time and effort to show how much you like someone by putting together a personal gift, then Christmas baskets are a great option for you. Once you think about what your loved one likes, you are ready to start making your own basket so that the recipient will be able to enjoy the scents and tastes you so carefully put together. Here are some ideas of Christmas baskets that will make your loved ones realize how much space they have in your heart.
Spa
To give someone the gift of relaxation, include shower gels, infusions, salts, a back massager, towels, and aromatic candles. Make yours or get this one at A Gift & Baskets for $69.
Cafe Latte
Mix assorted gourmet coffees, chocolates, syrups, mugs, or cups. Perfect for those who know that coffee doesn’t ask silly questions. Coffee simply understands.
Best of Luxury
If you don’t want to be shy on spending, and want to make clear that you know about taste, go with a luxury basket. Add a bottle of Margaux wine, Louis Roederer champagne, marmalade vodka, pudding madeira and elvas plums to start with.
Stress Relief
If your loved one has been a little stressed out in 2016, this is the perfect gift. This stress-relief basket is full with vitamins that can help anyone cope with stress, and relax before, during or after the holidays. There are all sorts of good stuff here - calcium, B12, B6, thiamin, niacin and everything else every health-concerned individual is pretty aware of. What a proof of caring this basket is! Put in snacks, seeds, a relaxing music CD, a guide for stress relief, dried mushrooms, and all your love.
Cheese Lovers
Some say cheese is one of the most addictive foods in the world. Feed your precious ones with a cheese gift basket plus nicely-paired wine so that they can satisfy their cravings like they deserve.
Here is the best stuff to add: goat cheese, roquefort, gorgonzola naturale, and parmigiano reggiano. Make it greater with great wine: Chateau Le Roc. Chingin La Marechale and a bottle of champagne you can pair with the cheeses.
Beer
Make a selection with some of the best beers in the world and add gourmet chips, olives and nuts. This is a sure shot for those who have beer loving friends. It’s a sign of respect, after all.
Celebrate everything the holiday has to offer along with the people you love. Show them you understand their tastes, and better yet if you share the same ones. Maybe you will even be able to partake!
