Homemade Wedding Gift Basket
How about a homemade wedding gift when you're invited to that big wedding, but funds are really tight. You can make a homemade wedding gift basket especially for the bride and groom from unopened items in your own home along with 99 cents store items -- including the basket! Do you have an unopened bottle of champagne or wine in the house? Put it in the gift basket! You can find gourmet cookies at the 99 cents store. Buy a couple of champagne glasses, scented candles, bath salts, matching coffee mugs, a picture frame -- the list goes on and on. If you have any of this stuff in your home that has never been opened, you can include it. The gift basket on the right is from www.giftbaskets.com. It sells for $79.99, but you could make it for much less.
The advantage of ordering this lovely basket from this site is if you are shipping a gift and you don't have the time to put one together. It includes chocolates, cheese, crackers, sparking pear juice, champagne flutes, frame, and photo album. but, if you are presenting a gift in person, you can get all of this at the 99 cents store except for the pear juice. Just put in your own bottle of wine.
