One of our most beloved festivals of the year - Rakhi, is just around the corner.  This year, Rakhi or Raksha Bandhan would be celebrated on Monday, 3rd August, 2020; and needless to say, preparations have begun in full swing. However, if for any reason you didn't get time to think of something special for your sibling, don't worry, as we have got you covered. You may have come across multiple gift packages and often wondered what it takes to make one on your own - the one that only has things you need. Well, this is the time to put your creativity to test. All you need is a basket (of course, you can refurbish and up-cycle the one that you got last Diwali). Or, there are many fruit vendors who sell cute wooden baskets too. Other than that, you need a glittery cloth or wrappers, some confetti (made with bits of colourful paper), some pouches and jars. You can use old glass jars or paint tin jars with cute motifs.

Moving to the contents inside, since it is your own custom Rakhi gift package, you have the freedom to add whatever you want: Here are some yummy ideas.
