Gift Basket Ideas for Mother's Day

Mothers get but one day a year when all attention is focused on their love, their sacrifices, and their devotion to their children. A gift basket is a wonderful way to celebrate mom. You can create a themed gift basket for your mom on your own, or group together with your siblings to fashion a memorable collection of items your mom will treasure. Here are some ideas to get you started:

• Picnic Gift Basket - Get a picnic basket and fill it with a red checkered tablecloth, cloth napkins, a bottle of wine or apple cider, and some fancy gourmet crackers and cookies. Make an even bigger statement by taking mom to the park for a picnic lunch.
• Coffee Gift Basket - Fill a basket with several of mom's favorite gourmet coffees and creamers, a #1 Mom mug, personalized coasters, and a fancy coffee scoop.
• Fragrant Gift Basket - Use a white wicker basket and line the bottom with some soft, puffy body sponges. Arrange a collection of discount fragrances, soaps, gels, powders with a few of her favorite flowers tucked in around them.
• Baker's Gift Basket - Fill with specialty bread and cake mixes, measuring cups and spoons, and a ruffled apron with matching oven mitts.
• Budget Gift Basket - If money is tight this year, have everyone write mom a personal note on some pretty paper, telling her how much they love and appreciate her, gather all the letters together into a basket and tie a pretty fabric bow on top.
