Gift Basket Ideas for Men by Lisa DeClue

I'm always on the look out for great Gift Basket Ideas & havecome up with a few especially for men. I'm using Home & GardenParty products, but you can easily adapt them to your line orwhat you have on hand.

For the wannabe chef: Fill our Bean Pot with Carr's crackers,smoke flavoring, packets of chili seasoning & hot sauce. Wrapwith cello and a plaid (or coordinating) bow with a masculinetag. He can make great chili with very little work!

For the shower: Take a citrus or clean-smelling set of showergel & lotion, a small wooden handled scrub brush and a rolledwash cloth or two, put in a wire basket from the dollar storeand wrap in cello... I suggest our Orange Blossom, Coconut Limeor Spearmint Eucalyptus scents.

Coffee Hound: Fill a wire basket with shred, add packets ofgourmet coffee/cocoa and our "Life is Good" latte cup. Maybe adda mug warmer and wrap in a coordinating napkin.

Time for our Date: We have some beautiful clocks with darkstain. Wrap one, like our Hideaway Box Clock, in a delicate silkor chiffon scarf with a note inside saying, "Meet me at__________ (place)." Set the time on the clock to the time ofyour rendezvous!
