Re: Dorm room decorating gift basket
Tue, June 5, 2007 - 8:37 PMflannel sheets EXTRA LONG! for her dorm bed! lol
bed bath and beyond has some really affordable sets.
depending on your time and talent, for the homemade stuff:
you could easily make a bed spread buy sewing large rectangles of fabric together and then backing of your choice
make her a pair of shower slippers/flip flops; decorate them with huge flowers or beaded trim, etc.
a shower bag to hold her toiletries
a rug; get large weave type base and then slip strips of fabric, yarn, torn old t shirts, sheetsc etc through the holes and then just tie them in knots close to the base
painted or glass etched tea light candle holders.....but, she may have to say they are "shot glasses" lol
a cork board and some fimo clay thumbtacks
one or two hand painted/decorated paper lanterns
a decorated bowl to keep her keys and change in
and a $20 dollar gift card to the local coffee shop!
good luck!
