Make Money Making Gift Baskets

You can make money making gift baskets and sell them online, at craft fairs, to family and friends, and have gift basket parties. Call friends that are Realtors or businesses that need Christmas gifts for clients. You may get a huge chunk of your earnings from this.

Gift baskets are perfect for birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, newborn babies, graduations, massage gift baskets, etc. The possibilities are endless. Choose your theme and run with it.
Buy baskets online in a large quantity to get the best deal and most likely free shipping.

Buy your products at discount stores, online and some places even let businesses get an even better discount. You will have to file for a business license to prove you are really a business.
Some examples of gift baskets to make money selling them are:


A Romantic Anniversary Gift Basket for Two:
Purchase a gorgeous gift basket, place a pretty towel in the gift basket such as a wine with grapes on it design and hang the towel over the edge, two candles with candle holders, a bottle of red wine, homemade spaghetti sauce, a chunk of mozzarella cheese, a single rose, two hand painted wine glasses (easily do-it-yourself), a loaf of French bread, a clove of garlic and a romantic jazz CD.


Wine or Martini Gift Basket: Do you have a family member or friend who likes to try new martini drinks or wine? Have fun making up a gift basket for that person. First know if the person likes sweet or sour martinis or red or white wines before choosing. Add a chunk of cheese, some fancy crackers, whimsical napkins, smoked oysters, a fun wine bottle topper, either unique martini or wine glasses, large olives for the martini basket, or a grape and wine table cloth.


Of course you can post both baskets online and make them up for craft fairs and home parties to sell. Be sure to include your business card inside of the basket.

Once you have made up a basket take a photo of it and post it online onto a website that you have created, Etsy.com, eBay or Craig’s List.


You can use your baskets as gifts for family and friends as everyone loves it when people know them and make something personal just for them.
