Hi Susan, you might try using some indoor herbs that could be used in
the kitchen as well as enjoyed as a houseplant.
 SM> I'm also trying to come up with other ideas for stuff to put into the
 SM> pots as gifts.  A friend suggested filling them with cookies or
 SM> candies. 
you could also fill them with small samples from the local dollar store
or seeds for starting there own garden next year.  The posabilities are
endless.  You might also try stuffing them with kitchen utensils or
copies of some of your favorite recipes.  
Don't forget to get some nice basket wrap to use on the pots along with
colourful ribbon to enhance the effect.  Hope these suggestions help.
