The Perfect Basket
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This book has a lot of good ideas and is well photographed. It will make a good addition to a home based basket business library You always need more ideas.
Such a Creative Resource

I really like this book, with all the wonderful ideas for gift baskets. Even thought her basket ideas are adorable, I actually like the mix recipes best. She has an older book, The Perfect Mix, that is also a keeper, with great recipes for easy gifts.
NOT about statring a business!! For personal use only.

Maybe I didn't read the editorial comments correctly before I ordered this book, but it is not what I wanted. I was looking for information about starting a gift basket *business*. This book does not cover that topic. It is a very nice book about making baskets as gifts for friends, neighbors, teachers, service people, etc. There are some full-color pictures, though not of every basket idea. The resource list is strictly retail. Recipes are included for basket items, a no-no when you're selling baskets unless you have a licensed commercial kitchen. So, while the book might jump-start your brain for basket ideas as gifts, it is not a business book. My problem, not the book's.
Excellent ideas on gifts - innovative.

Though pictures are nice, they can inhibit one's own creative thought. This book gives well-organized lists of gift baskets for a large variety of people: college students, various individual sports, even a French basket.
Great for non-creative types like Me.

When it comes to "creative gift ideas," I have none. This has given, and continues to give me great gift basket ideas. Everyone now thinks that I always bring the coolest gifts when I put together a basket like any in this book. I also recommend Diane Phillips' "The Perfect Mix."
