Cat Lovers Gift Basket Idea


I was really inspired by this amazing video posted on Youtube called Cat Lover's Gift Basket -- The Fancy Gift Guide by Brooke Peterson.  She had a beautiful basket created which is unique because of the beautiful presentation.  I think it was the fact she had a purple/silver gray theme throughout that really tied the basket together.  And the reason, I'm posting about it is a lot of the items are coupon items and cheap craft items you could create yourself or get easily from dollar store.  Her gift basket is modern and chic enough to gift year round.  


For her basket
She had a cute cat pillow with purple flowers that she put at the bottom of her basket.
Mason Jars filled with Cat Toys
Silver personalized tins that had cat food inside.
2 decorative bowls/plates for cat food
A table place mat, that was purple that she rolled for a beautiful presentation
A grey fleece blanket ( which you can even cut up to smaller size since cats don't need the full blacket)



Modified for Christmas
You can choose a Red/ Green/ Silver theme.
Use plastic bowls/ Holiday Placemats ( from Christmas/ Valentines Clearance or just the dollar store)
Peacock Feathers ( you can get really cheap on Amazon)
And if you can't find a basket (use a shoe box wrapped in nice Christmas Wrapping)
Cheap Santa Hat for the cat or a cute cat sweater you make from a thrifted christmas sweater which you can wrap in cupcake style
And as a cheap decorative filler, you can use the cheap fabric ornament balls (removing the hooks)
Cat Treats in glass baby food bottles
Nice framed picture of Cat and Owner

I also searched the web for some ideas as well my favorites are below.
