Say "Thank You"
When it is time to tell someone thank you, surprise them with a thoughtful thank you gift basket. Express your appreciation with treats, such as chocolates, nuts, and cookies, flavored coffees and herbal teas. If you want to thank someone more personally, then focus on their interests, and fill a gift basket with hobby supplies, new magazines, the latest edition of a favorite author, or tickets to the theater. Be sure to place a nice note into the basket expressing your gratitude. You can create a wonderful thank you gift basket yourself, or you can order one online.
Gourmet Food Gift Baskets
Gourmet gift baskets offer enough variety to satisfy everyone's taste. Whether you choose to order or create your own gourmet food gift basket, you'll probably want to have each basket follow a theme. For a south of the border gourmet food gift basket, add fresh tortilla chips and a variety of salsas. Appetizers and hors d'oeuvres make great gourmet gift basket items. Some wonderful selections include pepper and onion relish, fresh crab cakes, shrimp cocktail with sauce, smoked salmon samplers, crackers and cheese, and a variety of spices and vinegars. Other gourmet food baskets might center around fresh fruits and nuts, including strawberries, pears, apples, oranges, pistachios, chocolate covered peanuts, almonds, and pecans. Gourmet cheeses and crackers are also great gourmet gift basket choices.
Make Your Own Easter Basket

If you aren't sure about the cost of creating an online gift basket, you'll probably want to use a site that offers individual pricing for each item.
