In this article we’ll put together some ideas around perfect movie gift baskets tailored to a movie fanatic. These theme baskets will contain movie-related items from recent blockbuster hits as well as from classic movies of our time. In addition, you can include information about online movie websites that provide sales of movie memoribilia for their reference.

Here are some basic things that you’ll need for movie baskets:

• Gift Basket (wire, wicker, rattan or chrome)
• Gift Cards
• Wrapping Paper
• Cellophane Gift Wrap
• Tissue Paper
• Shredded Paper Filling
• DVDs of Classic Films
• DVDs of Blockbuster Hits
• Movie Theme Greeting Card
• Microwave Popcorn
• Movie Review Magazines

Step 1

Select a few items from the following list of options:

• DVDs of Classic Films
• Movie Posters
• Online Websites for Movie Memorabilia
• Movie Magazines
• Movie Trivia Books
• Movie History Book Collections

Step 2

Next, you should select a basket type and style for the movie gift basket. Some options include a wire, wicker, rattan or chrome basket and one that includes one handle or one with two side handles or even one without handles. The choice is entirely up to you and your budget. Just keep in mind that whatever basket you go with that it’s large enough to hold all of the gift basket fillers you choose to place into movie gift baskets.

Step 3

Now that you’ve selected the type of basket to go with and items to fill the basket with, it’s time to decide on the color of the gift basket. Make sure you choose a color that will complement the movie fanatic’s preference and possibly home decor. If you’re ever in doubt, just go with a natural wicker basket because it’s neutral in color.

Step 4

This next step is important because it’s time to use the shredded paper filling that we listed above to make sure the items you selected fit nicely in the personalized gift basket.

Step 5

Now you should go out and buy a movie theme greeting card to really personalize the gift basket for your movie fanatic. This is where you can put a handwritten note inside the card to add a personal touch!

The time has come to pack the gift basket for your movie fanatic.

Step 1

Take some time to wrap each item that you selected with a colorful gift wrap.

Step 2

Now put a thin layer of the shredded paper filling in the basket to cover the bottom.

Step 3

Take the items you wrapped in step 1 above and place them in the gift basket either horizontally or vertically. Make sure to push the shredded paper filling between the itesm to make sure everything fits snug in the gift basket.

Step 4

Now grab hold of the almost-complete gift basket and place it in the center of a large piece of tinted or clear cellophane paper. A few pieces may be required to ensure it covers a larger gift basket.

Step 5

Take each side of the cellophane wrap and bring them together a few inches above the top of the gift basket and secure it together with a long piece of white or colored ribbon.

Step 6

The last but most important step is to tape the movie theme greeting card to the wrap to make sure your movie fanatic knows who this unique gift basket came from! Without a question, movie gift baskets are a timeless gift idea that they will cherish for a long time.
