The Gift Of Tea. |
I like a nice cup of tea in the morning and at many intervals through the day. Brewing and drinking tea is a pleasurable rite that provides me with all the water I need to live, that stimulates my taste buds and that revives my spirit. Gift tea baskets let you give all this to friends and family too. I like to make my own gift baskets for my friends and family because they have a much more personal feel to them. You can combine any number of personal items that really have sentimental value. You can add a bit of humor in the tea gift basket as well. As long as you consider the personality of the recipient you are sure to please. I recently made up a unique gift tea basket for a friend who worries constantly about her body shape and weight. She is a gorgeous woman but insists on worrying about staying in shape. I had a brainwave about expressing this contrast in an ironic and helpful way that would give her pleasure. Making up the tea basket itself took very little time once I had the concept to work with. She was very appreciative of all my efforts and is now really into green chai. So much so in fact, that she is doing similar baskets for all her buddies in the aerobic class. Fruit and flowers too can add a whole new dimension to your unique tea gift baskets. What are your friends favourite fruits? What colours do they love? Which flowers and fragrances give them most pleasure? Fruit teas, gift wrapping and even fruity biscuits can give you endless room for personal creativity too. Chai teas are really hot right now. Younger, hipper friends and family members might really love a Chai tea gift basket filled with an assortment of this new favorite. I like to add some oriental details in this presentation to give the arrangement color and character as well. If you know someone who likes a nice pick-me-up in the morning you could make a tea gift basket that is filled with breakfast blends. Add some gourmet pancake mix and some syrup and you have a great present. On the other hand, you can make a bedtime arrangement that includes bath oils, candles and chamomile teas. There are endless options when it comes to making a personal arrangement like this. All it takes is a little creativity and you can make the perfect tea gift basket.
