–          A silk ribbon to wrap the basket or simply make a bow on the gift

–          A net wrapper that is feasible for fruits and would not perish them.

–          A greeting card

–          Green fern

–          Fresh Fruits imported & local

There are different sized wicker baskets available so you have to decide which size suits your gift. If you are using less number of fruits, you should get small basket otherwise get a bigger one oval shaped basket.

Once you select the basket now you should get some fern leaves to make the base of fruits. Real ferns are used because they keep the fruits fresh refrain them from being destroyed.

Now you need to take a variety of fresh fruits from the market. Make sure the fruits are neat and not damaged. If you are getting seasonal fruits then they must be very juicy and if you are getting some imported fruits then you must assure that they taste as good as you want because different countries have different tastes for a fruit.

Also when selecting fruits, you must ask the seller how much shelf life they would have. It would help you to deliver the basket within the right time so the recipient can easily use all fruits within their shelf life. Some of the fresh fruits you can choose are green apples, bananas bunch, grapes both green and black, pears, oranges, pineapple, Clementine and many other freshly plucked and ripening fruits.

When assembling the basket of fruits, you can also add some additional item other than fruits like a chocolates bar or a cookies pack. This would make your basket versatile and trendy. Use some barry’s hedge greenery leaves between the fruits to keep them from damaging.

Now you bring the wrapping net and cover the basket with it. Tie the net on the basket edges with plastic strings. The net wrapper would let the fruits stay firm and not fall while delivering. Now you can use the ribbon to make a bow and tag it on either the basket handle in the middle or on one side that is visible.

Next attach a personalized gift card with your heartiest greetings written. Make sure to stick the card on the top to let the recipient read it instantly from where it came from.

However, if you are shipping the basket you must pack the basket with a wicker gift hamper that is covered with a wicker cover. Also choose the fruits that are firm and still have room to ripen so they get a chance to ripe on the way. Usually the delivery takes 2 to 3 days so you must assume the desired time for fruits to ripe.

The fruits basket is ready to be delivered to your loved ones doorstep with a beautiful collection of fresh and exotic fruits.
