Decorate the basket and there is two ways you can do this.
1. Take Christmas ribbon and wrap the handle of the basket with it. Place a dot of hot glue at one end and keep wrapping the ribbon around the handle, until you reach the other end of the handle, and place another dot of hot glue to secure ribbon. Put a big bow either in the middle of the handle or where the handle starts on the side of the basket.
2. After placing all the articles in the basket, completely cover the basket with Christmas cellophane, gather together at the top, tie with Christmas twine and place a big bow.
Both are very pretty.
