I need to decorate a wire basket. My company is having a fundraiser for an employee who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. To participate in the fundraiser you could purchase a basket for $5 then it was up to you to decorate it, transform it, anything goes. There will be a silent auction of the baskets and they'll be judged. I want to do something unique, but can't think of a thing. I was hoping for ideas other than a gift basket or floral arrangement. I can paint it, cut it, hang things off of it, anything, but my mind draws a blank. My basket is around the size of a hanging basket most often used for flowers. Can anyone help me?

The audience in attendance at the auction will be women. The ages of the women range from 20-80. I really need some good ideas for themed baskets that will sell. All the money made from the baskets will go to a children't charity. We will be doing two different baskets, along with a few other things. We have done a "movie theater" basket before and that worked out well, and we might try it again, but we need some new ideas that will really get some attention. Any links to pictures or ideas would be appreciated as well.

I'd like to put together a gift basket filled with toiletries, spa supplies, and other things. How do I package the gift basket properly so that I don't have things falling out of the basket and moving around when it's shipped to its destination?

My school is having a family fun night, and I am donating a basket that is to be raffled off. I want to do something creative. Popular themes are movie night, bath stuff, or a craft basket. I'd like to do something different and need some ideas. Ideas must be family friendly, but it can be tailored exclusively for adults or children.
