I recently celebrated my 49th birthday. My daughters put together the nicest birthday basket for me. I love candles, lotions, soaps, socks, and family photographs. My girls put together a super nice gift basket that contained a BUNCH of my favorite things.
Gift baskets make great gifts for birthdays and other special occasions. You can buy gift baskets already made up at a florist or online or you can put one together yourself like this one. I love the idea of personally putting a gift basket together. You can create a gift basket built around any theme imaginable. If your mom likes movies, create a movie basket. If your dad enjoys sports, create a sports themed basket. If your son or daughter enjoys reading, create a basket filled with books from his or her favorite author. Include bookmarks and perhaps a small lamp.
I enjoyed seeing all the things my kids personally picked out just for me.

Birthday Basket Gift Idea
They used a medium sized basket similar to these. Then, they arranged 5 large Yankee Candles in Jars and one large WoodWick candle along with a few other items. This is a great DIY gift basket idea for any woman for almost any occasion. In fact, here is a list of the things they placed in my basket.
This is one of my favorite candles. It crackles when it burns. In the fall and winter months, it will be wonderful to crawl up on my
couch with my favorite
blanket and a
good book. It will be nice and cozy with this candle sitting close by.
They also included several Yankee Candles and other items similar to these:
I couldn't be happier! I loved my gift basket filled will all the goodies. I hope this helps you with a gift basket idea for someone you love.
