Tips for Presentation and Crafting Your Basket
Creating a Wellshire gift basket is as much about the presentation as it is about the ingredients.
Choose a sturdy wicker basket or rustic wooden crate to hold your items. Use shredded paper, festive tissue, or even a holiday-themed kitchen towel as padding, arranging each Wellshire product in a way that highlights the variety of the basket.
To give the gift a personal touch, include a handwritten note with holiday wishes, a few recipe ideas, or serving suggestions using the Wellshire products inside.
