Brrrr Baskets

During the holiday season, giving gifts can show friends and family members how much you care. Burr baskets are festive gift baskets that can be given during the chilly season of winter. Following the steps below, you can whip up your own special burr basket for someone, to show them how grateful you are for them during the holidays. 

Step 1: Pick a basket! This basket can be any shape, size, and material and can even  be used afterwards for storage.  

Step 2: Pick a cozy item! This can be a blanket, fun pajamas, fuzzy socks, or a pillow. There are so many textures, themes, and designs to choose from, too!

Step 3: Choose a candy or two! These can be festive or a favorite, or both - the choices are endless, especially during Christmas. Think about what type your friend likes. Options such as Yorks, white chocolate peppermint bark, and other pepperminty treats are available for a festive twist!  

Step 4: Give your friend a festive candle! There are many stores that have a great variety and selection. Look for holiday scents like peppermint or gingerbread or other scents your friend may enjoy!

Step 5: Add something extra for a super-special treat! Find a gift that personally fits your friend and is something you know they would enjoy, like cozy slippers, perfume, water bottles, or gift cards. 

Step 6: Combine the goodies and add a card! Place the items neatly in the basket with colorful tissue paper. Don’t forget to include encouraging words so your friend knows how thankful you are to Jesus for them this holiday season!
