Create A Gift Basket For A Golfer
Lover!
by: Donna Hamer
The choice of what gift to give your family and
friends can often be a difficult one. One of the best
gifts that you can give is a gift basket. A gift basket
is that one present that comes in many shapes, themes
and of course, price ranges. A gift basket is easy and
fun to make.
The diversity of gift baskets is never-ending. You
can give a weekend pack gift basket or a relaxing gift
basket (required after a weekend away playing golf) or a
simple basket with balls and tees. The type of gift
basket you choose and create is only limited by your
imagination.
Here is a simple basket that you can easily create
yourself for that special “Golf Mad Person”:
Pick a gift basket style. I like to use either a Golf
Bag or a bucket (try a metal or heavy plastic golf ball
bucket, like the ones at a driving range) which later
can be used for collection of practice balls.
Next select a variety of items that have a golf theme
which will later be packed into the decorative basket
that you have chosen especially for the recipient.
When selecting the gifts for the Golf Lover choose
items such as golf balls, personalized golf balls, tees
and ball markers, books about golfing, golfing coffee
mugs, golf theme mouse pads, sunscreen, waterproof
raingear, golfing shirts and handheld golf games.
To add a little extra to your gift basket for the
Golf Lover include:
A cap with their name embroidered on the front, a
personalized hand towel and a video on improving their
golf game.
If you are on a budget try a small gift basket. I
would suggest using a metal bucket and include some
sunscreen, tees and balls.
When you are finished, wrap the Gift Basket with
cellophane paper and raffia to give it a finishing
touch. Use shredded paper inside the basket to hold the
goodies in place. Tie a tee with a message attached to
it for that added touch.
