Need Help

[nun69]

ok.....so I am going to make my inlaws, and both of my BIL's families Movie Baskets for Christmas.....I have some ideas for the basket (popcorn bowl, popcorn, candy, hot cocoa, cups, juices, etc)....what I need is an idea of what kind of "basket" to put them in that would fit ALOT of stuff.....I want to put a whole box of popcron, a whole box of cocoa, etc in it (including the actual popcorn bowl) so other than a basket from Michael's or Joann's any ideas?

What about one of the containers that are made to store DVD's? Do they make them big enough?

what about those collapsible boxes designed to fit in the ikea expedit units? or similar sized?

Hmmm... maybe a cardboard box that you "wrap" and decorate the outside? You could even use some movie or carnival themed kits from the shoppe. That way it's not this giant container or basket that they feel like they have to keep?

I was thinking that you get a really big popcorn bowl and use that to hold all the other stuff. But, this is coming from a girl who grew up in a large family that really loved its popcorn. When I hear the words "popcorn bowl," my mind automatically pictures a bowl that can hold about three gallons of popcorn. Lol.
