My sister recently decided to open a home based business. She makes birthday gift baskets appropriate for any age. Each basket has a theme so if she is making a gardening basket she uses a watering can to put the items in. If the theme is movie night she decorates a basket to look like a tub of movie theater popcorn. I am always amazed at her ingenuity. The baskets are selling like hotcakes and she is considering taking on an employee to help her. It always surprises me when people manage to start a business like this and immediately become successful.
