 Today we are going to get in the Christmas spirit, Christmas is right around the corner, so that means we're going to have some Christmas shopping to do. Now this video is going to be about how to spruce up your gifts. I'm going to show you how spending a few extra dollars can make your simple gift look fabulous. Today I'm going to show you how to make two really easy gift baskets. One is going to be the gift of curl, the gift of no frizz, whatever curly girl wants. So let's say you buy them the Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie or maybe the Deep of Curl Super Cream My Two Favorites. So I mean you could just wrap this up or you know just slap a bow on it and be like hey Merry Christmas, but it just looks so minimal you know or let's say you gave your friend a DVD like I don't know at the top of my head every Beyond Grenade Today video ever created. Okay fine realistically you could give your friend their favorite DVD so you got their DVD, once again you could slap a bow on there and be like Merry Christmas but it just just looks so much just there you know whatever. So I'm going to take you guys shopping with me we're going to go to the 99th store and the Dollar Tree and we're going to find some ways to spruce up our gifts. So I've got my holiday Christmas sweater on so let's do some Christmas shopping. Alrighty I've never been to this 99th store before so that way you know if I look crazy for talking to myself I'll never see these people again. Okay now we're going to do our movie date night Netflix and chill type gift so look at these cute little popcorn boxes these are going to be perfect we need one of those and we can get some movie theater popcorn and then depending on who the gift is for just think about some of their favorite candy and snacks. Mike and Ike's, you like Mike and Ike's, where your boyfriend at? Got a boyfriend? Okay so let's start off with a curly hair type basket so we're going to need a microfiber towel so you don't create frizz by using a regular towel and it also be nice to have a bunch of shower caps for our day two, day three and day four hair. Now honestly these little hair bands have been really good for putting my hair into a pineapple at night so we're going to get some of those. Always need bobby pins because we lose them we don't know where they go but we always need more and let's see we're gonna need some hair ties because they're also unfaithful and they will break on you. Alrighty I think we found some pretty good things so now let's go home and I'm going to show you how to make it a little cuter. All right now that we're back from the 99 cent store on the Dollar Tree let's start making our gift basket. I have been a big fan of gift baskets probably because my mom and my aunt had their own business called basket biz shout out to basket biz where you realize that just putting things in a basket with a nice pretty bow and it just makes everything look so much better. I do this for like all birthdays baby showers and when I walk in with this big old basket everybody automatically thinks I have the best gift even though they don't even know what's inside of it yet it's all about presentation. So I have this cute little Santa basket from the 99 cent store so now we have a basket let's cut off the tag so nobody knows that we actually only spent 99 cents and then we would usually fill this up with like mush paper like at the bottom of Easter baskets but of course because I wanted to film this video the 99 cent store was out so I just bought some things from Amazon so I'm gonna use some bubble packaging perfect and one less. So now I have a little bit of my fluff if you don't have any type of bubble wrap you also could use newspaper. Newspapers kind of becoming extinct so I don't have any of that either but if you could just have some type of fluff that's what you're going to need at the bottom of your basket. I'm gonna use some of this little snow stuff that they also had I don't have to cut this I can rip this so much easier. Okay there's our snowy little patch let's say we're gonna give away the Deep of Curl super creams this is gonna be our our focal point but we have so many other cute things to add in our basket now I'm gonna open this because this looks like you got it from the 99 cent store we don't want people to know and I also got this cute little basket from the Dollar Tree and we're gonna put it inside of there because that just looks you know cuter oh there's a lot of these you can never get enough shower caps I use these on the daily okay now we got our bag now let's get our microfiber towel because that's important this is a little yellow one I'm also gonna take out the little flexi rods get these little hair ties I know what to do I'm actually gonna take the flexi rods and put these around them there we go flexi rods and our hair ties bobby pins how can we make the bobby pins look a little bit cuter maybe we can't so I was gonna cut off the name and I'm just gonna stick this right here in the front and I bought the cute little vanity mirror because why not am I doing this backwards of course I am let's move everything there is our beautiful curly hair essential gift basket okay so now that our basket is cute and fabulous we're now going to wrap it in cellophane cellophane is just this like clear type of wrapping paper basically so we're going to put this in the middle and then you want to raise it so you have some height beautiful now we need some ribbon luckily I have a million balloons lying around for my 100k video doesn't matter what color you just need some type of string to hold it in place so I'm actually gonna turn my basket so that the back is going to be pushing this up like this we're just gonna bring up the sides I just want to scrunch it all together we can get back in there and make it cute once again now I'm gonna get my string and you're just gonna tie a knot and now we're gonna get some pretty ribbon the ribbon is the icing on the cake so it's best if you get the really thick ribbon that has like the wire so you could bend it on the end beautiful hair care gift basket now for your next gift it could be something as simple as a dvd or we could dress it up and make it an epic movie night basket so I have my popcorn box that I found the dollar store that I love and this is going to be perfect and now I need some more raffia newspaper stuffing there you go I also got some sparkly garland I'm just gonna keep it in a pile oh yeah look how cute that looks already like it's overflowing with fabulousness so now we have your friend's favorite movie right but I wouldn't be a movie night without some popcorn so we're gonna slide the popcorn in there we're also gonna put in some of our favorite snacks like maybe some sour patch some skittles some junior mitts you know things you get at the movie theater and pay a hundred dollars for but these are all 99 cents we're gonna get some tape and I'm gonna tape these up higher to each other there we go and just like that you created a beautiful movie night Christmas basket and now we're just gonna wrap it just like we did our first basket so for what five seven dollars you just made your gift looks so epic and so thoughtful and they're gonna love it so here are my two completed gift baskets I have my hair care package you could put hair products I wish I would have bought the hair picks bobby pins scrunchies mirrors flexi rods all things that you might need if you have curly hair or you can make it towards whatever type of hair you have you can make it a beauty basket put some nail polish some lipstick eyelashes all things you could find at the 99 cent store and then you have your movie basket if you want to spend a little bit more money you could put maybe a blanket in here you could put some wine depending on the person you know just make it really personal for whoever you're buying the gift for if you go to like TJ maxx Ross Costco they have those huge elaborate baskets but then when people get them it has a lot of stuff that you don't usually like they're always like some dry crackers some weird types of cheese some dried fruits that you didn't even know could be dried and they end up either re-gifting your basket or throwing a lot of the stuff away but if you take the time to put in things that you know they actually like and love it's gonna make it so much better so that concludes my 99 cent store Christmas gift shopping video if you guys like this video please give it a thumbs up and subscribe I post new videos every Sunday so I hope to see you guys next week thanks for watching Bianca Renee today
