1. Orange With a Touch of Green Gift Basket
I think orange and green look refreshing together.
The orange evokes happiness and encouragement, and the green symbolizes optimism, growth, and renewal. Perfect combo!
1. The Basket, Lining, and Goodies
When I started putting this basket together, I wanted it to be a pretty thing filled with snacks and beverages for two.
I found a lovely basket at Home Goods and lined it with a linen napkin.
Here is a similar wicker basket and linen napkins.
Save the extra napkins for another gift basket. You could also use one to wrap a wine bottle and present it as a summer hostess gift. (You’ll love the simple ideas in that post!)
I looked for orange gift ideas at Home Goods and found some great things to include in this basket:
- Quinoa Chips by Daily Crave
- Dried Apricots
- Chocolate Covered Almonds by Lakanto
- Orange Colored Drinking Glasses
When I saw these palm leaf coasters, I thought they’d be perfect for this gift basket. Fruitbelt sparkling tonics are delicious.
So, for a touch of green, add
- leaf coasters
- sparkling apple tonic by Fruitbelt
Here it is, the orange gift basket with a hint of green ready to be delivered!
