Eid Gift Ideas
Giving gifts is my favorite thing to do in the entire world! I love tailoring gifts to each person and adding my own personalized touch. My motto for gift giving is ‘love for others what you love for yourself.’
This year for Eid I came up with the idea of making gift baskets for my family, friends and neighbors. I have always wanted to do this and since this year I have some time on my hands, I decided to go all out! I put together a variety of different gift baskets for all sorts of people. Feel free to take this idea, tweak it to your liking, and run with it!
1. Brownie Lover’s Basket
My brother in law and sister in law LOVE making and eating brownies so what better gift than to give them brownies! I thought it would be slightly funny but pretty useful.
This basket includes:
Batter bowl (as basket)- HomeGoods
Brownie batter
Mini Chocolate Chips
Cupcake liners
Mini spatulas- HomeGoods
2. Home Spa Basket

3. Children’s Activity Basket
What kid wouldn’t want a basket full of toys, activities and candy. I made a few separate baskets, one for my nephew and couple for our neighbors’ kids. These can vary depending on age group of the kids. For the older kids I put together some word find sudoko, and adult coloring books whereas for the youngsters I added some bubbles and children’s coloring books. Most of the items in these baskets were found at Target except for the basket itself which is from HomeGoods.

4. The Munchies Basket
This snack basket is perfect to give to just about anyone. If you can’t think of something specific or personalized for someone then this basket is probably the way to go because everyone loves snacks. By the way I don’t know if you know but HomeGoods always has the best organic, unique and tasty snacks. Sometimes I only go there for the food lol! The basket and goodies are all from there.
This basket includes:
Bag of bruschetta
Turkish Delights
Shortbread cookies
Organic Turkish figs
So, these are some of the gift baskets I can’t wait to give out! I hope this gave you some ideas of what to get your friends and family for Eid. If you thought of something unique, I would love to hear about it!
