The gift basket industry continues to grow as gift baskets are recognized as a viable alternative to more traditional gifts. Both individuals and corporations alike recognize their ability to personalize gift baskets to their specific needs. Much of the industry growth comes from non-traditional businesses as well. Gift basket businesses tend to work very well for home-based businesses as well as brick-and-mortar storefronts.

Container Options to Be Used for Gift Baskets
When it comes to containers available to be used for gift baskets, burton+BURTON® is here to help you expand your horizons. Obviously, you can't go wrong with a basket. Just don't be afraid to stray from the traditional handled or wicker base. Odd shapes, such as platters and creels, make great starting points as well. And of course, seasonal baskets such as bright colored Easter baskets and red & green Christmas baskets are available for specific needs.

Besides baskets, burton+BURTON® has custom-designed containers in all shapes, sizes, and materials. Maybe consider tin, ceramic, wood, polyresin, and the very popular, melamine. Many of our gift container options are designed to coordinate with collections of specific balloons, picks, ceramics, and gift products. While our melamine pot covers and tin planters are designed to fit standard 4" and 6" greenhouse shipping pots, they still make wonderful containers for use as gift baskets, which can later be used as storage containers. Available in a wide variety of colors and patterns, you will find something that will suit any situation.
Finally, don't limit yourself by what is considered a gift basket container. For example, a baseball cap or a lampshade could be the beginning of a great new design. Look around your shop and let your imagination wander. You may be surprised where you end up.
