Make Your Own Candle Set Spa Gift Basket
Candle set spa gift baskets are a stylish way to present your spa-loving mother, sister, friend or co-worker with the opportunity to recreate a spa experience at home. You can either look for one of the lovely pre-made gift baskets, or create your own! The advantage with the latter is that you can fill it with goodies you know the recipient will love. You can often choose higher quality products and make a spa gift basket for a cheaper price than you would buying one made already.
What Type Of Things Can Go Into Your Candle Set Spa Gift Baskets?
Obviously, you'll need to find some spa products. These can include body washes, lotions, exfoliating body scrubs, bath soaks, hydrating face masks, natural or brand moisturizers, special anti-aging treatments, bath brushes, spa slippers, even a spa robe, and of course, candles!
You can really let your imagination run wild making these spa gift baskets. If your friend or loved one likes natural or organic products, you can find many that are suitable. One thing that's a good idea is to make sure you know what scents the recipient likes and dislikes. It's easy when picking products to choose what you would like, instead of tailoring the gift to the person receiving it.
Do they like lavender, lemon, orange, or sandalwood scents? What is their favorite color? You can either choose to color co-ordinate the gift basket to their bathroom, or theme it with their favorite colors. Your local craft store will be a good source of ribbons and baskets, and any other material you might want to use creating your gift basket. You might also need some clear packing material or cellophane to line the bottom of the container, so the products themselves are arranged nicely out of it.
Your local drugstore is an excellent place to buy beauty products because they are often cheaper, and very convenient. Of course, you may not always find the range that you will online. But these days, there are many products geared towards women who want a spa experience at home. Many of the products on store shelves feature organic ingredients and aromatherapy benefits similar to what the top spas use. For example, The Healing Garden is a popular drugstore line that makes all kinds of affordable bath and body products that would be perfect for a gift basket.
It's a good idea to buy the products first because then you'll know what size basket you need. You can go small with as little as three products or go large with many more than that. And don't feel you have to limit yourself to facial and body treatments. You can also include hair treatments, aromatherapy products and beauty accessories. You may also want to consider the soy lotion candle, which is a candle and body treatment in one. When the wax melts it becomes a body moisturizer you can actually rub on your skin. Once you've chosen the products for the basket you can head to the craft store and get your other supplies.
If you want to create a more unusual candle set spa gift basket, you might want to consider using something other than a basket to hold the beauty products. You could find a metal planter, a wine holder, a magazine holder, a gardening bag complete with gardening tools, or even a small bag or purse. Simple colored boxes also make great spa gift basket holders.
When choosing your basket, look for one with some depth because you're want to arrange the products in a base of shredded paper, cellophane, or faux grasses. Fill the basket so you can see the contents over the top of it, which creates a very professional finish. You can wrap the finished gift basket in colored cellophane, or shrink wrap it and finish off with a pretty ribbon or bow. A personalized card is the final touch. The recipient of your gift is sure to be touched by the effort and time you've put into her gift. Of course she would also be happy with a pre-packaged candle set spa gift basket, but it wouldn't have that personal touch!
