Fall is the time to invite friends into your home for a cup of coffee or a slice of apple pie! Surprise a neighbor, teacher, coworker, or friend with a special fall gift basket that is full of all things cozy! Fill a pretty wood box with fall coffee mugs, coffee, treats, and a special homemade touch from you – DIY stenciled tea towels. See how easy they are to make below!
Make special tea towels for your gift basket with fun fall sayings such as “Pumpkin Spice Everything.” All you need is a set of 6 DIY Natural Tea Towels, Thanksgiving Décor Stencils, and acrylic craft paint.
Use masking tape to hold the stencil in place so it doesn’t move. Then apply paint to the stencil with a foam brush, using an up and down dabbing motion.
Carefully lift up the stencil to reveal the design and let the paint dry completely. Make a variety of tea towel designs with different sayings to give to friends!
Choose a pretty crate like this Wooden Panel Box to use as your gift basket. Line the bottom with burlap or another filler to help elevate the items in the crate.
Fill the box with some fun Fall Ceramic Mugs, a mini Amber Bud Vase, and faux fall leaves. Fill the coffee mugs with K cups of your favorite pumpkin flavored coffee or chai tea and these super cute little Fuzzy Fall Gnomes!
Finish off your gift basket with faux pumpkins such as this White Craft Pumpkin and small Paper Raffia Pumpkins, a few fall treats such as Candy Corn and nuts displayed in Clear Round Favor Boxes, and your handmade tea towels.
Who wouldn’t want to receive this box of goodies? You can customize your fall gift baskets however you like. Other potential items to make a cozy basket include:
- Fall candle
- Small throw
- Favorite book
- Favorite fall recipe
- Anything pumpkin flavored or scented!
