I love unique ideas. If you have a friend who is getting
married and don't want to do the normal run-of-the-mill
bridal shower, here is a superb idea. Throw your friend
a "basket shower".
Each guest will bring a basket of
goodies that has a theme to go along with it. It will help
the new bride get well-stocked on supplies as well as fun
items.
Here are a few themes to get you thinking. Be creative
and have a blast discovering all the themes ladies come
up with!
*Home Organization Basket - notepads, calendar,
organizer, folders, clock, phone...
*Honeymoon/Romance Basket - negligee, perfume, lotion,
Throw Blanket, hot chocolate or sparkling cider with 2 mugs
or glasses, picnic basket...
*Gourmet/Kitchen Basket - pasta, fancy dressings, crystal
pitcher, apron, hot pads, ice cream maker...
*Gardening Basket - seeds, flower pot, water can, gardening
gloves, garden tools, lawnchairs...
*Mrs. Fix-It Basket - small tool case, scissors, sewing basket,
hammer...
*Homemaking Basket - laundry basket, pillows, blankets,
dustbuster, air freshener...
*Memory Maker Basket - photo albums, picture frames, guest
book, journals...
