We've chosen the classic Port and Stilton for our basket. Of course, they can be easily substituted if the recipient prefers something less traditional. |
 |
Firstly take your basket and fill with the shred making a shallower 'well' to accomodate the products. |
 |
Tuck the shred around the items and neaten any strands that may be overhanging. |
 |
We've used 80cm wide cellophane and only needed about 50cm in length. Wrap this around the basket. |
 |
Seal the cellophane underneath the basket with a little sticky tape. Your basket should now be in a 'tube' of cellophane. |
 |
Neatly fold one end of the cellophane and wrap as if you were wrapping a box. Seal underneath again with sticky tape. Do the same with the other end, cutting off any excess first. |
 |
Your basket will now be neatly wrapped in cellophane ready for your finishing touches. |
 |
Select the ribbons, bows and decorations you'll be using and attach to the basket. |
 |
There are plently of colour and embellishment options, here we've added a bunch of artificial grapes too. |
