Welcome Basket Ideas

Published by DIY Bride at 4:55 pm under DIY Projects & Tutorials

Welcome baskets really are a great treat for your out-of-towners and they don’t have to be extravagant or expensive. Some things that are useful and universally appreciated by your guests:

  • Local maps
  • Entertainment section of the local paper
  • List of phone numbers/addresses/email of anyone they may need to contact during their stay.
  • Schedule of events and directions to the meeting places if you’re coordinating any activities for them.
  • Recommendations for local pubs, restaurants, and sights.
  • Bottle of water for each person
  • Snack for each person (cookies, chocolates, local specialties, banana bread)

Instead of a basket, you could put these into a simple gift bag, tie it with ribbon, and enclose a personal note of welcome.

Simple. Easy. Useful. Gotta love that!
