1
Remove the price tags
First of all you need to take off the price tag of every item you have purchased. You do not want to leave the price tags if you are gifting the beach-towel basket. -

Make the base
After removing the price tags, you need to make the base of the beach-towel basket. You should place the biggest items first. Place the beach towels in the beach bag. Roll them and then tie a ribbon. Remember to get a ribbon of the same colour or a contrasting colour with the beach towel. -

Make the next layer
Next you need to place the things which are smaller than towel and the biggest things. You need to place visors, sun hats and flip flops or sandals next to towels and other things. Place them in a way they please your eyes. You need to arrange them in a way it looks great in the basket. -

Place the smaller items
After placing the middle sized things, you need to put the smaller items. Place them one by one inside the beach-basket towel. You should place the smaller items in between the bigger things. In addition to this, you can place things in between other things so you can surprise others. -

Wrap
In the end you need to wrap the beach-towel basket before gifting it to others. Use clear cellophane to wrap the basket. Tie the cellophane with a ribbon and you can glue a shell on the top of the basket.
