A gift basket is a great idea for just about any occasion. From birthdays and holidays to special events or even "just because", there are many gift basket ideas. When you are trying to come up with the perfect gift for an occasion, a gift basket is often the perfect option.

First you should decide if you want to purchase a ready made gift basket or create your own. Many gift basket retailers can customize their products for a customer, especially if you are ordering a large quantity of an item. Retailers often have a wide variety of gift baskets for every occasion, though some focus on specialty markets. Purchasing a ready made gift basket can also be less expensive, after you factor in the cost of the basket, packaging, wrapping, and the contents. If you have a great gift basket idea and can't find any similar products you may have to put it together yourself, though.

Some gift basket ideas include a Graduation gift basket, containing a keepsake item such as a Teddy bear or picture frame with the year and snacks and goodies. Along the same line, a gift basket can be a great send off gift for your college ...
... freshman. Not only will they know you are thinking of them, but they will have a supply of study snacks ready and waiting. Another great gift basket idea is for new parents. You can find baby themed gift baskets with blankets, bottles, and other baby items, but new parents would also appreciate gift baskets with dinner kits and easy to prepare food items. They will be busy, and it will be a refreshing change from pizza delivery.

With a little creativity, you can find a gift basket idea for any occasion. Don't feel limited either. For instance, new parents may love a romantic wine and dinner-for-two gift basket while newlyweds might prefer a toolbox stuffed with snacks if they just bought a new home. Tailor your gift basket idea to the recipient, and they are sure to remember your gift!
