How To Choose Lining For a Gift Basket

Hi. I'm Rachel Fish from Incredible Edibles for Expert Village. Now I'm going to show you how we can choose the decorative paper to put on top of the basket, also so that the food that we put in won't get mixed into the grasses and it also adds a certain elegance to the basket. So, either we can choose a netting type of thing to put on it here or we can choose something like a material or we can choose a paper. Now the papers come in every single color of the rainbow as do the material, as do the nettings. It shows a few sample colors over here but, let's say we were doing a baby girl basket, for example, I would be able to choose pink colored paper, put it over here and that would add to the basket. If I was doing a baby boy, I could take blue and put it over there, also to add to the basket. Now over here, if you see the differences in materials, this is a material. It's a maroon color with gold on it, nothing raised over here, it's a certain design, like a paisley design. It's beautiful. These materials, if you look closely, you'll see that there's like a felt which is raised. Also, it's beautiful; it adds certain elegance to a basket. This is black and white, it's a little bit more classic, we could use that. And this is a gold, also, but if you'll notice, it's a flower design on the material which is also, it's a very beautiful thing, its leaves and flowers and we could also use that to put onto a basket. So there you have your choice of what to use to put onto the basket based on the type of basket you'll be doing.
