Many stores sell pre-made gift baskets with a good selection of fresh produce or flowers, but they usually also sell the baskets, so you can make a gift basket yourself if you want to. But what would you put in your DIY gift basket? Here are a few ideas.

One of the best things to put in a gift basket is fruit - it's sweet, it's not too expensive, it's a treat (especially if you get exotic fruits), and it somehow feels like it belongs in a basket, especially a wooden one. You can even keep the fruit in the basket until you eat it, and it makes a nice ornamental alternative to a fruit bowl.

You can buy a basket easily available in the crafts store and then fill it with the gifts and decorate it with fillers so that when your father receives it, he gets immense pleasure.

Flowers are another great thing to put in a gift basket, especially ones you've grown and picked yourself, or found in the wild - it's much more personal that going to a florist, and often prettier too.

Really, though, the best thing to do is to just find out what the person's favourite thing is, and fill a giftbasket with that. If they're a big fan of cheese, get a whole load of cheeses and fill a basket with them. If they like jam, do it with jam - and so on.

If your father is a gadget lover you can gift him with latest gadgets such as mobile phones, ipods, electronic diary, calling cards, mobile phone covers etc. If your father is still working, you can either gift him an official leather bag or a designer pen.

Finally I would remind you to not be afraid to try a new product. I have thousands of happy customers from many different parts of the world. I've not had one person ever come back to me and say that either they or the recipient wasn't pleased.
