Product Description
Steve Crowley, Money Editor of ABC's "Good Morning America," recently forecast the three fastest growing small business opportunities of the decade-selling gift baskets is one of them. Retail chains and catalog merchants have been marketing gift baskets for years, but by the mid-1980s they became so popular that home-based businesses and even part-time hobbyists started making good money at it, too. This book is just the thing for anyone who wants to get in on this booming new industry. The main appeal of gift baskets is that each one is unique, designed especially for the recipient, and author Kathy Lamancusa shows how to apply that principle to gift baskets, bags, and boxes for virtually every occasion. Readers get started by learning all about the materials that are used-including bows, ribbons, and balloons-and how to work with them creatively. Then a series of original, step-by-step projects show how to add individual touches while focusing on specific themes: bon voyage, birthday, anniversary, forgive-me, I-love-you, Christmas, household decoration, and much more.
