Hey everyone!
Mother’s Day is this Sunday and if you haven’t thought of your gift or you need a more budget friendly option, then this post is for you! Keep reading to learn how to make your own DIY Mother’s Day Basket!
DIY Mother’s Day Basket
The gifts you put inside your Mother’s Day Basket can be tailored to the things she likes, but seeing this is a beauty blog I wanted to keep it pretty beauty related… and hey my mom loves beauty stuff too!
How To Make the Basket:
You’ll need a basket, basket filler, and a ribbon. This is so easy, but here is what I did…
1 // Place the basket filler in the bottom of the basket, this just gives it more cushion allowing the items you put in the basket to stand up more.
2 // Take your ribbon and start wrapping the handle of your basket, all I did was twist and pull. My ribbon was long enough to go back the other way, then I just tied it off with a knot. (if your basket doesn’t have a handle, you can go around the outside of the basket and tie a bow in the front.)
You can tie a bath loofa or bookmark to the handle of the basket to add a little something to it.
What’s Inside:
I’m not a mom, but just as a woman I tried to think of things that would be pampering or relaxing so in the basket I included;
1 // Sleep Body Wash from Bath and Body Works… this is so relaxing!!
2 // 60-Second Manicure Hand Scrub from Bath and Body Works… I swear by this stuff!
3 // Mario Badescu Rose Water Facial Spray… smells and feels amazing!
4 // Vaseline Hand and Nail Cream… great to use after the hand scrub!
5 // Oceanside Candle from Bath and Body Works… this is a very calming scent, perfect to light while taking a bubble bath.
6 // Bath Loofa
Like I said everything you include in the basket can be tailored to your mom. You could also include a gift card to her favorite nail salon, restaurant, or clothing store. Whatever you do, I know your mom will appreciate it!
If you are a mom I hope you have THE BEST Mother’s Day yet! :)
If you are a mom, would you like a gift like this?
