    Use a paper shredder to shred fun paper to fill on top of the other stuffing instead of buying already shredded! I’ve done that and it works great🎄

    Oh man, I’ve never thought about how those gorgeous gift baskets landed at the liquor store! I can watch these videos all day (not joking 🤷🏻‍♀️) and I have not seen this technique presented so beautifully! Honestly, I’m amazed or as the kids say I’m shook… omg when you said your dad’s wine has aged beautifully or… 😉

    I put a blanket, or towels in the bottom of my baskets, as filler. I always grab them in January when they go on clearance for 75% to 90% off. Cheap, but useful filler. I buy pajama sets on clearance, for this as well.

    Great ideas. I love your jars of cocoa and how you wrapped them up so pretty. I will make some of these, and some unsweetened type of cocoa and sugar free chocolates for people who are diabetic. But this certainly giving me ideas but change up some items. Your so thoughtful. And who ever is getting these gifts are so lucky and feel loved by you.🥰 The wrapping part is awesome. i always loved receiving gift baskets.💞 Merry Christmas.🎄

    NIce basket, but I was told, in basket design classes, never used candles with food which makes sense.

    @kimeckhardt 2 года назад +1

    These are beautiful great ideas!!
    In the beginning of the video when wrapping the wine, you had a wire roll with a cutter attached to it. So neat where is it from? Soo useful, tried to find something like it in Amazon but not having luck lol

    • @homemakingdownsouth
      @homemakingdownsouth  2 года назад

      Hi Kim! Thank you so much for your kind words! So the wire and cutter combo I was using I bought from Hobby Lobby. You can find it in the floral department! I hope you have luck finding it! Merry Christmas!

    • @homemakingdownsouth
      @homemakingdownsouth  Год назад

      Hi Linda! Thank you so much for your kind words! So you can cover the entire basket with a cellophane bag but be very careful because they rip so easily! You can buy them at hobby lobby or any craft store I’m sure. Also check Amazon! ☺️

  • @haleycourtepatte1675

    Very nice but I would not wrap an empty box.. I'd put something in it. Imagine getting a basket with a nicely wrapped gift inside that turns out empty.... That would suck.

  • @berenicesansone482
    @berenicesansone482 Год назад +1

    Do you wrap the whole basket at last with the celofán paper ?

    • @homemakingdownsouth
      @homemakingdownsouth  Год назад

      Hi! So for this basket I didn’t. I tried however the cellophane bag I had was not large enough. If you do choose to use a cellophane bag then make sure it’s large enough and have multiples in case it tears. They are very finicky and tear easily.

    What makes u think the cocoa u buy in the store is any 'fresher' than the premade jarred stuff?

    • @homemakingdownsouth
      @homemakingdownsouth  9 месяцев назад

      Sometimes the premade jar hot cocoa/marshmallow mixture has been sitting for years.

    • @staceykersting705
      @staceykersting705 9 месяцев назад

      I'm thinking the same about most 'dry goods' on store shelves.I use organic cocoa to avoid some of the alkali processing. Eat fresh!@@homemakingdownsouth

    Does anyone know if we are allowed to add second hand items to baskets that are for sale? I am thinking of ornamental items but never anything someone uses to eat such as a coffee mug.
