Comfort Baskets

A Creative Alternative to Floral Arrangements

Created exclusively for Weed-Corley-Fish Funeral Homes by Dazzling Mélange, Comfort Baskets are a unique option to standard floral arrangements and sympathy cards. Each basket is filled with high quality treasures carefully selected to suit each theme.  Crane stationary, Spode China, luxurious spa products and a cookbook of comfort foods---these are just a sampling of some of the items included in our baskets.  Each basket will be wrapped in cellophane, include a card/tag for you to personalize and tied with a bow.  Below is a list of each basket theme and its contents.
 
*Please call Weed-Corley-Fish Funeral Home at (512)452-8811 to order.


 

Comfort Food:   $105

The comfort food basket is ideal for someone who appreciates the culinary arts and diverse flavors. Included in this beautiful natural basket is a wonderful cookbook by Donata Maggipinto, Everyday Celebrations; Savoring Food, Family, and Life at Home. World Market’s Harvest Vegetable Soup mix is nestled in a hand-painted Tuscan style soup bowl. To compliment that, basil tomato cheese, 2 cheese spreaders and sesame water crackers are part of the contents. Busseto dry salami, a box of Bentley’s orange spice tea and Toblerone Swiss chocolate round out this mini-feast. Finishing touches include culinary themed thank-you notes, napkins and coasters, beautifully presented with ribbon and raffia.   Please call Weed-Corley-Fish Funeral Home at (512)452-8811 to order.




 

Floral Embrace:    $115

For that sweet, feminine soul that loves floral patterns and pastels, this basket is actually wrapped in a Victorian style hat box. Insightful poetry and observations about grief are beautifully illustrated in Helen Exley’s book, Words of Comfort. A fine china cup and saucer by Spode will make tea or coffee a special occasion, so a box of Bentley’s Jasmine Green tea is included.  To stir and sweeten your beverage, edible stir sticks of lemon honey or strawberry are part of this, as is a bar of World Market gourmet chocolate.  Wild orchid bath crystals, embossed floral stationary by Punch Studio, rose bouquet saucer coasters, a floral candle in a botanical glass candleholder and an antiqued gold photo frame make up the rest of this thoughtful gift.  Please call Weed-Corley-Fish Funeral Home at (512)452-8811 to order.




 

Home Spa:   $105

Fragrant soaps, soft music and candlelight are the mainstays of this basket. To sooth the soul and relax the mind, anyone would appreciate receiving this gift. Seascape bath and body gel, a velvety soft blue wash cloth, and a bar of French-milled soap are just part of this home spa experience. A book explaining how to make your home a spa experience is included as well as a luxurious loofah scrubber, a seaside scented votive candle in a glass lotus blossom. Known as the purveyors of the world’s finest paper, Crane & Co. thank-you notes with a seashell theme are nestled in the basket along with a memories photo frame by Punch Studio and a box of Bentley’s Minty Mint green tea.  This basket is packaged in a crisp white basket with seashells and ribbon.  Please call Weed-Corley-Fish Funeral Home at (512)452-8811 to order.




 

Military Tribute:   $95

A gesture to recognize service to this great country, the Military Tribute basket includes Thomas Kinkade’s keepsake book, Let Freedom Ring . The book provides inspirational verse and quotations about America accompanied by stunning illustrations. Patriotic themed Hallmark napkins, stars and stripes coasters and linen kitchen towels are part of this unique gift. For refreshment, a blue and white striped ceramic mug is accompanied by a bag of Bellitalia Espresso Italiano ground coffee and a box of Bentley’s breakfast tea. Two commemorative tins of gourmet chocolate feature famous American landmarks--- A small, elegant silver photo frame, a glass jar of mint candies and a set of thank-you notes round out this basket which is then tied with red, white and blue ribbons.  Please call Weed-Corley-Fish Funeral Home at (512)452-8811 to order.




 

A Hug for a Child: $85

For young children, death is scary and confusing. We have created this basket to help with healing and to entertain them during the long services and events that occur during these times. The book, Help Me Say Goodbye is a therapy book that helps kids express their feelings in words and pictures. Also included is a Webkin plush animal that is soft to hug and also fun on the computer. A packet of Kid's Mix Jelly Belly candies and a Charms lollipop for a sweet treat are tucked in as well as a small photo frame. A duck full of bath gel, a fun card game and a hand-held puzzle add to the gift. In addition, a Crayola wonder coloring set is ideal as the markers do not write on anything but the wonder paper---so cars, tables, church pews and sofas are not at risk. All of this is packaged in a basket with cellophane and a colorful bow.  Please call Weed-Corley-Fish Funeral Home at (512)452-8811 to order.
