Gift Basket Unique Ideas
I need to decorate a wire basket, what unique ideas can I use?
I need to decorate a wire basket. My company is having a fundraiser for an employee who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. To participate in the fundraiser you could purchase a basket for $5 then it was up to you to decorate it, transform it, anything goes. There will be a silent auction of the baskets and they’ll be judged. I want to do something unique, but can’t think of a thing. I was hoping for ideas other than a gift basket or floral arrangement. I can paint it, cut it, hang things off of it, anything, but my mind draws a blank. My basket is around the size of a hanging basket most often used for flowers. Can anyone help me?
Fabric strips! My daughter’s art class did this with plastic baskets. They took patterned fabric and cut it into strips about 1″ x 3″. They tied the strips around each section of the plastic mesh, making the outside of the basket ‘fuzzy’ or ‘fluffy’. (Tie several strips to each section) One child added thick yarn, like we used to wear for hair-bows, randomly through her pattern.
Count on lots of people weaving strips of fabric in and out, so this texture would be more unique.
A cute idea would be to make it shades of pink, and fill it with pink cosmetic items (nail polish, emery boards, lotion, etc.)
Second idea:
Use pink and/or purple tulle (nylon net) for the fabric strips, especially if you can find sparkly stuff. Fill the basket with fairy-princess items (tiara, hair things, sparkly play makeup) for a little girl.
