    Yes, these would be wonderful gifts. They would be good for people who want to look stylish, or just need something to keep things in. An optional suggestion is to put items in the basket when you hand it to them, such as chocolate, since it can help make the gift seem complete.

    You can always try different materials, but ribbon might make it a little too too flimsy. Maybe use wire-edged ribbon and varnish to give it rigidity.
