Food Lovers Gift Basket with NJ Lottery. I’m showing you how to put together the perfect gift for the foodie in your life. Filled with sweet and savory treats, sparkling cider and 4 new Holiday Instant Games from NJ Lottery. 

I have a family full of foodies and I think a gift basket is always a win in the gift department. Today I’ve put together a Food Lovers Gift Basket with NJ Lottery for you! Packed with sweet and savory treats, a holiday candle, a kitchen essential towel and of course this years NEW Holiday Instant Games {$1 Holiday Luck, $2 Holiday Luck Times 10, $5 Jingle Bills, and $10 Cash in a Flash}. 

I am a lover of a thoughtful gift. Its easy to get overly busy during the holidays and you sort of forget to slow down and enjoy the fun season. Gift baskets are a great way to show friends and family how much you appreciate them and are so customizable. I made this one for a very good friend of mine that is as much a foodie as me.

Heres what I decided to include Food Lovers Gift Basket:

• Several of each of the 4 new NJ Holiday Instant Games lottery tickets
• My homemade Holiday Brookies
• Cheese
• Summer sausage or Dried Salami
• Crackers
• A fun and festive holiday plate
• A kitchen towel
• Fabulous cinnamon scented candle
• A bottle of sparkling cider

So lets build this beauty! I started with a really pretty wire basket with a liner then filled it with crinkle paper. You’ll want to start with the larger sized items like the plate, candle and sparkling cider.I used the kitchen towel to tie around the neck of the cider and kept it in place with some pretty ribbon. Next I added in my homemade cookies, some summer sausage, cheese, crackers, mustard and some winter floral sprigs to dress it up.

Up next, the awesome 4 NEW NJ Lottery Instant Win Games! I wanted these to stand out and not fall between any of the other goodies so heres how I go everything to stay in place…. paper straws! I found these really cure red and white straws and thought they’d be just perfect! I taped the straws to the backs of each of the NJ Lottery Instant Win Games then placed them into out Food Lovers Gift Basket. 

These Holiday themed games are fun, festive, and appropriate for anybody to be given as a holiday gesture, stocking stuffer, or party favor. They are out NOW and are easily accessible at any local Lottery retailer. My family LOVES the instant games, especially the holiday themed ones! I think they are the perfect addition to this holiday basket! I can’t help but wonder, What would YOU do if you won? Knowing me, I’d likely spend it on my kids and a fun house project, like a kitchen remodel!

How great did it turn out right?! This is a GREAT gift for mom, a friend, a neighbor or the kids teachers. This Food Lovers Basket with NJ Lottery will be enjoyed for sure. For another really fun gift idea, check out this video! Such a creative one!

 

 

I have to tell you about something I just learned about with the NJ Lottery, the Million Dollar Replay!! If you go ahead and sign up for FREE to the NJ Lottery VIP Club you can actually enter non-winning tickets into a Million Dollar Replay second chance drawing!! How awesome is that… because hey, everyone deserves a second chance!
