We will encounter many festivals throughout the year, and with the ceremonial exchanges between relatives and friends, gift-giving is indispensable. I would like to share with you a tutorial on the design and production of a gift basket.

In fact, making gift baskets is easy. As long as you master a few key points and have some basic materials, you can make a very beautiful gift basket yourself.

First of all: Gift baskets usually need a seat, using some novel and beautiful boxes, wire fruit baskets, or even plastic boxes as the base. As long as the shape is beautiful and the price is not very expensive, its fine. The party receiving the gift not only enjoys the gift, but can also use the container for a long time. It is environmentally friendly and economical, and everyone is very happy.

Secondly: The items in the gift basket should be based on the preferences of the other party. In the past, our gift baskets were basically health products related to nuts, which were high-end products in the gift baskets. Of course, the price was a little more expensive. Therefore, when making gifts, you need to calculate the cost and match items of all grades, especially those items with beautiful packaging, large tangibles, good quality, but not very expensive prices, so that the finished gift basket looks very substantial. Full, beautiful and layered.

Finally: Wrap it with a kind of transparent cellophane to prevent dust and small insects from entering. In addition, it also fixes the items in the gift basket to serve both packaging and aesthetic functions. Nowadays, there is a kind of "latte art" in Chinas small commodity markets (including some overseas gift shops). They are available in large, medium and small sizes in various colors. They are very beautiful and the price is very cheap. The flat ribbon, when pulled, becomes a decorative flower, available in various colors. Tying it on the "neck" of the gift basket is like the icing on the cake, making it much more beautiful.

There are two drawstrings on the inside of the ribbon

This time I chose a beautiful box with metal packaging corners on the corners and two handles

Because the box is relatively deep, filler is needed (here, scrap newspaper balls are used)

The layout is roughly arranged, with some tall items placed in the middle
