Thanksgiving Gift Baskets

Harvest, Halloween, and Christmas items have been side by side in the stores for weeks now. While you’re munching on leftover ‘treats’ is as good a time as any to be thinking of Thanksgiving. Ideally, we should always be living in an attitude of thankfulness, counting our blessings great or small on a daily basis. But so many of us are busy just living that we don’t take the time to do that.

With the majority of the planning for Thanksgiving centered around the menu for a big family dinner, saying thank you to those people who are or have been blessings in your life may not rank high on your to-do list. Why not make it a priority to let them know they are appreciated?

Whether Mom is nearby or far away, why not surprise her with a Hugs for Mom Gift Basket? Is Dad a sports fan? Share his enthusiasm. From baseball to golf, there’s a gift basket for his favorite sport.

The Hugs for Mom Gift Basket is packaged in a wooden picket fence planter. It is a beautiful arrangement that includes an inspirational book (Mothers Are Forever), a ceramic picture frame for a 3x5 photo, a votive candle with a ceramic floral topper, bath sachet with bath salts, Wildflower Refreshing Body Glistening Spray, Chocolate Pecan Cookies, Vanilla Caramel Ice Tea, and Wildflower Honey.

A keepsake wicker football-shaped basket is the container for the Football Fanatic Gourmet Food Goodies & Snack Gift Basket. This basket is filled with “Tailgate & Celebrate” football-shaped pasta, pre-sliced savory salami, stone ground mustard, Honey mustard pretzel twists, crunchy Nikkis snack mix, Ghirardelli chocolates, fruity bonbon candies, and two jumbo-sized football-shaped cookies. (You are also given the option of scheduling the actual delivery date.)

Or send a coffee gift basket and plan a special visit to share a cup with them.
