Everyone deserves some “me” time. Sometimes we know a person in our lives who work hard and always puts others first. If you want to show your appreciation for them, you can give them a gift from the heart. A spa basket shows someone that you’re thinking about them and allows them to take a load off and relax.
Here are some ideas for what to put in your spa gift basket for the next time you are feeling generous.
Why Make A Spa Basket?
Customized spa baskets show the people that you love that you care about. Instead of buying a pre-packaged gift, you took the time to collect individual items curated just for them.
This also means you can customize the basket to fit your budget and add as many things as you want. So what are you waiting for? Go gather up your supplies and make someone’s day!
No Occasion Necessary
Although spa gift baskets can make a great birthday or holiday present, you don’t need to wait to give someone a special day. You can give someone a spa basket just to show them you care about them and you want them to have a good time. They’re an easy way to impress someone whose love language is gift-giving.
Items To Include
There are many things that you could include in your spa basket to make it special. Here are some that we came up with. Feel free to steal our ideas!
Candles
Lighting a candle is always relaxing. The aroma and the aesthetic that it creates in a room can provide your loved ones with peace and feelings of calmness. Candles come in so many different scents that you will most likely be able to find the best one for that special someone. Whether they like floral, citrus, or musky smells, you can’t go wrong with candles. Here are some popular scents to include:
- Vanilla blossom is a sweet smell that reminds people of sugar and the holidays.
- Beachwood is a tangy and exotic scent that reminds us of tropical islands.
- Patchouli is a woody and velvety smell that is reminiscent of sandalwood or frankincense.
- Sea Salt is a refreshing aroma that reminds us of summer and ocean breezes.
- Teakwood has a floral smell to it that’s also reminiscent of cedar. This can be considered a more masculine scent.
Some candles even have wooden wicks that crackle like fire as they burn. This provides a sensory experience for them.
Face Masks
Face masks are not only relaxing, but they also offer amazing benefits for your skin. Face masks come in many different varieties that can range from cooling to clarifying. This can help the person receiving the gift experience luxury while they improve their skin! Here are a few different kinds to consider, including:
- Clay masks can help draw dirt out of clogged pores.
- Sheet masks are great for hydrating skin.
- Peel-off masks can help remove the dead skin from the face and leave skin soft.
A Good Book
Sometimes relaxing can mean taking your mind off the day. Escaping daily stress with a good book can help with this. Put a self-help book or a fun fantasy novel in your basket to spice it up. Look for a book that will speak to the person receiving it.
Tools For A Mani
Not everyone has time to get their nails done. Including some tools to do it yourself can be a great alternative. If the person you are giving the basket to likes to get their nails done, give them a clipper, buffer, and some polish. They can get a professional mani or pedi in their own home.
Chocolate Or Other Sweets
Another option to include in your basket are treats. Everyone has a favorite candy or snack that they like to munch on during the day. Pick something that the person especially enjoys and looks forward to eating. This could be chocolate, chips, or even something like popcorn.
Body Wash
One of the best ways to make a spa basket special is to include shower and bath products. This makes the person receiving it feel like they are really at the spa. A luxurious body wash with an amazing smell can soothe and nourish their skin while they relax.
