Cheese Gift Basket
Cheese Gift Basket

Over the 21st century, the use of cheese gift baskets for Christmas and other holiday gifts has skyrocketed. Stay ahead of the trend while saving money by making your own!

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Gourmet cheeses
  • Wine (if you want)
  • Fruit (adds a nice touch)
  • A Basket
  • Plastic wrap
  • Ribbon of your choice
  1. Step 1

    Gather your materials!!! Cheese, wine, fruit, wrap, ribbon, and more wine!

  2. Step 2

    Where do you think you start? Get the basket of course! Make sure it's big enough to hold your cheese and other items. Place it on a table and get ready to fill it up!

  3. Step 3

    Arrange your items in the basket. Definitely put the tall wine/sparkling cider bottles in the middle, with the rest of the items arranged around them. Don't put small items in the middle! They'll get lost.

    You can use styrofoam or something to keep the little items elevated. Don't overdue it though, this is often misused. Also, the color of the styrofoam shouldn't be distracting at all! It should look like a cloud in your basket.

Tips & Warnings
  • This is 10% content and 90% aesthetics. Make it look awesome!
  • Don't use expired wine? Wait...
