Every Christmas I create a gift basket for my family gift exchange full of my favorite just-the-right-thing finds. The goal is to keep the cost around $50.00. This year I thought it would be fun to share some of the contents of my baskets.
Margarita gift basket
Shortly after Joan and I started our blog, Just the Right Things, my family received a gorgeous margarita gift basket from my husband's boss. I promptly copied the idea.
- Tequila
- Orange liquor
- Lime squeezer
- Fresh limes
- Your favorite margarita recipe written on a card
Here's what I put in my unisex gift basket last year.
- Umbro Tubo Countertop Container - $12.99
- Cyber Clean - $7.99 (Goo that cleans and disinfects phones and computer keyboards)
- Mini MicroFiber Fuzzy Cleaning Mitt - $2.99 (Cleans phone and computer screens)
- MePad - $9.95 (To-do lists shouldn't be boring)
- Flashlight with Optional Size Batteries - $5.16 (Because you always seem to have the wrong-sized batteries)
- Alderwood smoked salt - $2.30 (Takes grilled steaks to new heights)
- BrightenUp 2-Minute Teeth Whitener - $4.95 (It really works)
