For last Mother's Day I made one for my grandma using a small tool bag. I baught a couple of flowers to pot and put them inside the bag, and the outside had all of these little pockets, so I put some gardening gloves, little gardening tools(mini shovel, rake thingy (don't know what it's actually called) and some snips) and some seed packets in them, she loved it!

I'm putting together a beach/pool bag for my neice. I'm including a beach towel, sunglasses, frisbee, water bottle, sunscreen and flip flops. All items were clearanced earlier this year at Joanne's, rite aid and old navy.

My other neice is getting a nail care basket with 15 various nail colors, (Wags RR deal), emery boards, cuticle cream, polish remover, nail scissors and nail stickers.

I saw a bunch of great baskets at a fund raiser last year. I wish I would have wrote all the ideas down but the 3 I remember are:

Taligate Basket:
Cooler
Beer
Portable Grill
Charcoal and lighter fluid
Chips, Pretzels and dips

Family Game Night: (great idea with all those Target deals going on)
various board games
card games
popcorn
soda

Bar-b-quer's Basket
Grill
B-b-q utensils
seasonings
b-b-q sauces
apron and hot pad
