Create Lasting Memories With Great Father's Day Gift Baskets

By Giselle Taylor


I don't know about you but I have such a great dad I want to give him something from my heart this year-- like fun and thoughtful Father's Day gift baskets he will love. When else do I get the chance to show him how much I appreciate him being there for me all throughout my life anytime I needed him - or didn't need him or so I thought. He's a special man and more than worthy to be celebrated.

The best thing about giving presents is that the receiver will feel obliged to use the gift - especially one that is carefully planned and sweetly presented. Use this to your advantage. If it seems sneaky, well it is. If your dad loves those calorie laden steaks and burgers, get him healthy gift baskets. Nothing gross and bland; fresh fruit baskets are yummy and popular choices that he might enjoy if given a chance - or if prodded into with discrete emotional blackmail.

Ok, maybe fresh fruit gift baskets are pushing it. You can still do something about it. They say the way to a man's heart is through his stomach and dads are no different. Put together a care package of whole wheat bread, some pieces of fruit (not a whole basket anymore), tasty broiled chicken or fish, and a couple of his favorite beer brand. Then go out and have a nice picnic lunch, just the both of you. Now that's definitely something he would appreciate.

What hobby does your dad take pleasure in the most? Work around this particular theme in your gift basket. Perhaps its golf. Trim a big basket with synthetic grass garlands and put in golf paraphernalia like pens, magazines, wall paper, etc. The more creative the better. If your budget will allow it, but an umbrella and have it printed out with his name and some silly message. When he uses it as he makes his rounds across the course, he will remember you.

Here's a well known secret that bears repeating - the cost of the gift really doesn't matter to most parents. That almost gives you a free pass on what to give our dads right? Nope - we still need to give our best, however form it takes on. If the best means DIY gift baskets for the time being then that's great - it spells love and sincere effort to him and that is what matters.

How about putting together an album of his favorite songs from all the bands and singers he loves? The same applies to his movie fetish if he has one. A DVD collection would make a great present for him. If all else fails, make him laugh with a bouquet of corndogs or a framed picture of your mom's face when he wore that loud golf shirt while walking beside her.

Today we give special attention to the hero that needs no special mention, at least for him -our dad. He always provided and cared for us beyond what was expected of him; it's your chance to show your appreciation with beautiful Father's Day gift baskets that express your love.
