While the wow-factor of getting a brand new gadget or cute pair of shoes is through the roof, its margin for error is huge. Getting someone an extravagant gift can be risky, especially if you aren’t sure what they like. In a few weeks, it could end up forgotten in the back of their closet or, worse, tossed in the trash. But who doesn’t love getting personal, curated gift baskets? We think they’re the perfect gift-giving solution. Instead of sticking to one stand-out item to give your friend, combine multiple items you know they’ll love and package them tastefully yourself. It’s a win for everyone. Gift baskets can follow a theme, flaunt your own favorite products, or include fun, mismatched items. The best part about DIY gift baskets is that you can decide just what to put inside. Here are a few great DIY gift basket ideas to get you started.
