Does Grandma spend her days gardening? Or Perhaps she likes to relax spend her free time experimenting with new recipes and fawning over her favorite pet. Send grandma a gift to cater to her likes – she’ll be touched with the extra thought you put in!

For The Step Mother
The sweetest sentiments are ones you can share, so surprise your stepmom with a gift the two of you can enjoy together! A wine gift basket is the perfect celebratory sentiment that will bring you closer together; consult with Dad on whether she prefers white or red to really show you care!

Sometimes just knowing they are only a phone call away is enough to make a difference, so be sure to show gratitude to those who are outside your immediate family. A sweet “thank you” comes in the form of a phone call, letter, or gigantic fortune cookie!

Thank You Parisian Terrace Fruit Gift BasketWelcome back, gift basket fans!

After taking a short break, the Designer’s Corner Blog is back in action! Allow me to introduce myself: I’m Stella, the new blogger, and I’m so excited to be bringing you fun, creative party and gift ideas each week!

One of the first things everyone learns about me is that I’m obsessed with finding the perfect gift to make someone smile ear-to-ear. When I’m celebrating a special occasion, I can never walk into a store, pick a random item on a shelf and throw it in a gift bag. I spend hours, even days, searching for presents that are personal, meaningful and practical. In other words, I want my gifts to speak to someone’s heart—and to be cherished long after they’re given. Now, I’d like to share my gift-giving mania with you! I have tons of gift ideas for you, so let’s get started.

National Gratitude Day might be over, but that doesn’t mean the spirit of appreciation can’t live on! There are so many people who brighten up our lives each day in both small and big ways, and there are even more thank-you gift options that show them how thankful we are to know them. I personally love thank-you gift baskets because you can fill them with tons of personalized items. I thought it would be fun to put together a list of the top five people we should all thank on a daily basis, plus some great thank-you gift ideas for each!

Best of Junior's 4-Flavor Cheesecake SamplerMom
My mom, who looks like my identical curly-haired twin, has been my best friend since the moment I was born. She’s the first person I go to when I need advice or a good laugh, and “me-time” is not a word in her vocabulary: She always puts family first.
Ultimate Thank-You Gift: If your mom never stops giving, spoil her with the Best of Junior’s 4-Flavor Cheesecake Sampler.

My life wouldn’t be the same without my weekly dates with my best chicas. These girls don’t hesitate to lend me their ears whenever I have something juicy to say, and there is never a blah moment when we join forces.

Wonderful You Thank You Gourmet Fruit Gift BasketNeighbor
I’m lucky enough to live in a neighborhood where everyone looks out for one another. My neighbors go above and beyond lending the occasional cup of sugar: I know I can always trust them to keep a watchful eye on my home while I’m away.
Ultimate Thank-You Gift: Return your neighbor’s considerate gestures by leaving a Wonderful You Thank You Gourmet Fruit Gift Basket at their doorstep.

 

Big Thank You Caramel Apple With CandiesTeacher
