What you will need:

The gift basket I made was for mothers day and it was all under $12, pretty awesome right?! Below I've included step by step instructions of how I made my basket. I've also broken down all the prices for you.

Step 1: Crumple up some tissue paper and add it to your basket, the deeper your basket, the more paper you will need.

Step 3: Place all your items in the basket, you will want to place the tallest and largest items towards the back and the smaller ones towards the front. You can always add extra tissue paper under or behind items to make them stand up more or make them taller.

Next, get your clear wrap and some scissors ready!
Clear wrap- Dollar Tree $1.00

Step 4: Roll out the clear wrap and place your gift basket in the center, when you lift up all the ends the should be much higher than the basket. Cut the wrap once all your sides are taller than the basket. Gather all ends and tie them with a ribbon. You will have two small ends sticking out, you can either fold those in the the basket, or tape them down. 

Here is the final product..

There you have it! A super easy mani pedi DIY gift basket where the grand total was $12.00 plus tax!
