Tea Gift Basket for the Tea Lover

I’ve partnered with Laura Kelly Designs, Expressionery and World Market to share this Tea Gift Basket idea.  #ExpressioneryWraps.  Affiliate links are included for your convenience.

I love gift giving!  It’s a lot of fun to create custom gifts for friends and family based on what they like. My mom and mother-n-law are both BIG tea drinkers, so I thought a Tea Gift Basket would be fun to pull together for a birthday, Mother’s day, just because, etc.

I love World Market, there’s no doubt about that.  I love shopping there for furniture, gifts, props and MORE!  So, this all started on a shopping trip there, here’s what I picked up.  Let’s start with a few of the supplies.

Supplies for Packaging:

Walnut Oval Jackie Baskets
Natural Excelsior Basket Filler
Heart-Shaped Handmade Paper Notecards
Red Paper Ribbon
Personalized Expressionery Stamp

Here are the items I picked up for the gift basket.

Supplies for Gift:

Tea Rest
Lagoon Blue Samantha Tea Tins 
Chamomile Tea
Walkers Shortbread Cookies

I started by placing the excelsior basket filler into the Walnut Oval Jackie Baskets.

Then it was time to add the goodies.

I usually have to tinker with positioning and proportion,
but within a few minutes you’ll be set.

I then cut one of the Heart-Shaped Handmade Paper Notecards
into a small square and stamped on my personalized
Expressionery stamp.  Attach with ribbon or twine
and your gift is ready for giving!

You might finish it up by wrapping it in cellophane;
however, for photography purposes,
I decided not to on this one (too much glare).

Voila!  Adorable, right?
This post is part of a blog hop too, so
