All Your Basket Needs Under One Roof

  • Baskets

    Over the years I have made many baskets; all of them are customizable.

    This store contains the most popular items. Please visit my basket shop to see if any of them grab your attention!

    If they don't, no worries. I will create a fully customizable basket for you! Just send me an email.

  • Cubes

    Shipping costs have increased drastically since I started. My clients who purchase for the holidays were having to pay outrageous postage amounts just to get holiday baskets out to their clientele.

    To counter this, I came up with the cubes. They are flat and still hold all the same goodies. You may miss out on the touch of having a cool basket, but the price difference may be worth it for you.

    Check out our Cube selection. These also are customizable with an email.

  • Home Away from Home

    Between volunteering as a caregiver and having a kid in college, I recognized there's real need for regular care packages.

    It's one thing to send a loved one a gift on a special occasion but entirely another thing to send them something just because.

    For this reason I have created the Home Away from Home Bundles.

    The contents will vary depending on the season.

I had a friend remind me that I live a very interesting life. As this friend mentioned, my rare heart condition, quality family time, adventures with friends, and work in the community adds up to a full and interesting life.

So here is my personal blog. I hope you can find some inspiration as much as she says I have inspired her!
