Coming up with great ideas for Mothers Day gift baskets can be tough. A themed basket is a good way to make things easier, since you can just select items that fit the theme. How do you come up with a good theme? That depends on the mother.
Hobbies and preferred foods are a good place to start when looking at gift basket ideas. Choose something she loves and you have the perfect theme. A mother who enjoys coming up with new recipes in the kitchen will be thrilled to receive a selection of cooking items. A woman who enjoys her books will love a basket full of reading supplies. There are plenty of options and everyone has some sort of interest, so this will make it easy to pick an idea quickly.
With a theme in mind, it is time to put the basket together. If you just do not have the time or energy to build your own, you can purchase Mothers Day gift baskets in stores, as well. These are not very personal, though, so your recipient will like something you put together far better in most cases.
The selection of products is the best part of a present like this. Choose items that the recipient will love and use. Do not just stick with obvious items, though, try pairing other gifts with the themed items. If you are putting together a puzzle kit, you can add a book of crosswords, which is obvious, and some cookies and tea, to nibble and sip while working on crosswords. Key chains and other small gifts can compliment a theme, as well. Just look around for little items that fit the theme and add these in.
Cooking mothers will love getting new spices and herbs to try, along with useful utensils and a cookbook. Put it inside a pot for a novel package. It can be fun to fit the packaging to the theme for these types of gifts.
A pail is the perfect way to serve up some gardening tools and seeds, while a spa kit will go nicely in a new bath organizer to pamper your mother. For the crafter, new craft supplies in a tote bag work very well and fit the theme.
Any time you find it hard to come up with an idea, just stop and check out some catalogs for ideas. You can also ask your mother what she would like or look on online forums related to the theme you have chosen. The forum members will be happy to recommend gift ideas.
Building Mothers Day gift baskets does not have to be a challenge. Rather, it can be fun to collect things that you know she will love and use, based around a theme that you choose from her hobbies or likes. The best thing is that most mothers have more than one hobby and you can give her another basket next year, either on a new theme or to replace what she may have used up from this year.
