Hi, I'm Laura from youngwritersworkshops .com and I'm going to talk about how to make a
gift basket for a book lover. This is a great gift. And with holidays approaching you know,
it's not too early to be thinking about putting together a gift like this for the person you
know who really enjoys reading. So the way that I like to put together a basket like
this to think about a book or maybe two that the person will enjoy. But then also think
of the other reading related activities that the person might do. I'm putting this basket
together for someone who really enjoys tea. Drinking tea and reading seen to me to go
together really well so I got some really good tea that I include in the basket along
with a good mug. And I like to think about something that won't break when I'm putting
together a gift, especially since I'll be shipping it. So the gift, sorry the mug goes
in here with the tea. I'm including some little tea strainers since it's loose tea. It's kind
of fun to bury the gifts in whatever medium you're using. So find a basket that will fit
your goodies and also get some sort of medium like shredded paper, shredded paper or some
grass like material that can hold everything in place. I included a book that my friend
will really like and also a magazine. So it looks like to me the perfect reader's gift
here. You could play around with the positioning until you feel really comfortable with it.
And then to finish it off, you want to include some sort of gift card with it so that your
friend will also be able to expand their reading with a little bit of a gift. And then, close
it all up in some kind of covering like a plastic container. There's actually bags that
you can purchase that will fit the whole thing or you can enclose it in sort of a clear plastic
wrap, anything that will hold things in place, so that your gift looks like one big package
when your friend receives it. So gathering up reading material and reading related small
gifts and putting them all together in a basket is a good way to make a gift for a book lover.
