How to Make a Coffee Lover's Gift Basket

Are you looking for a unique gift for a coffee lover? Why not make a coffee lover's gift basket? All you need is a suitable basket or container along with some basket filler and ribbon. Here are some coffee related items you can include in your gift basket.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

1. Chocolate spoons.
   
   You can buy these from some gourmet food stores or coffee shops or make your own. Do a Google search for chocolate spoon recipes. The chocolate on the spoon melts when you stir your coffee turning an ordinary cup of coffee into a decadent dessert.

2. A handpainted coffee mug.
   
   You can buy special paints for decorating porcelain or ceramic at your local craft store. Buy a plain, white mug and decorate it with the paints of your choice. You can even write the recipient's name on the mug using black paint.

3. Coffee syrups.
   
   Visit your local coffee store and pick up some flavored coffee syrups to add to your coffee lover's gift basket. You can find them in a variety of flavors from fruit flavors to such exotic flavors as hazelnut.

4. Coffee jewelry.
   
   Did you know you can buy necklaces and earrings made out of coffee beans? Do a search for "coffee jewelry" online and discover what's available.

5. Coffee art.
   
   Add a framed photo or drawing of a coffee cup to your coffee lover's gift basket. You can even frame a vintage coffee ad and include it in the basket.
