Homemade Bridal Shower Gift BasketsHomemade bridal shower gift baskets can be made with many different themes: linens, kitchen items, spa gifts, or lingerie to name a few. For a long list of ideas, you will want to review these
gift basket themes.
Pay special attention to the spa theme as it also includes recipes and decorating tips to make bath/spa products. 
A basket is always appropriate and easy to work with. Here are some other container ideas you may want to consider; such as colanders, trays, wooden crates, planters, bakeware and bowls to name a few. Next, read through my assembly directions web page and make a list of the items needed to complete your bridal shower gift basket. If you have a limited budget, choose one pricy gift and several less expensive items on sale or at discount stores. Any gift basket theme that involves cooking or food can be less expensive because you can include gifts from your local supermarket. 
consider address labels, note paper, or stationary with the future bride's new name and address. A standard size photo frame, cake knife for the wedding cake, two wine or champagne glasses, a decorative wine opener, or bath towels monogrammed with their initials. A subscription to a cooking or decorating magazine is a lovely gift, too.FINISHING TIP: Wrap your finished gift basket in tulle instead of cello, which you can purchase at fabric or craft stores. Cut a piece large enough to bring it above the finished gift basket so you can bring it together and add a bow or curly ribbon. Use a rubber band to hold the tulle in place while you add the bow. Make it even more decorating by adding small white wedding bells tied in the bow or curly ribbon.
