Gift Basket Ideas for Men

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

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

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

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

Time for our Date:
We have some beautiful clocks with dark stain.
Wrap one, like our Hideaway Box Clock, in a delicate silk or chiffon
scarf with a note inside saying, "Meet me at __________ (place)."
Set the time on the clock to the time of your rendezvous!
