Start by searching for an elegant basket. You might want to check out craft stores, discount stores or even a second hand store for just the right basket. Make sure it's large enough to hold everything that you plan to include. You might even want to paint the basket to match your color scheme. Next you'll select the contents of your spa gift basket. Keep in mind that the whole point of this present is to persuade your friend to unwind, so look for items that will make over her bathroom into a luxurious spa experience. Your first item should be a towel. Find a thick cotton bath towel with a coordinating face cloth or two. Roll them up separately and tie them with an attractive ribbon. Next, look for a scented candle that matches the towels. Set this in the middle of the basket, and arrange the towels around it. Now you can fill in the basket with bath items. There's a huge variety of options to choose from, including scented soaps, foaming wash, cleansing gel and bath oils. Stick with a specific fragrance and style. Another nice addition is a loofah or bath mitt to smooth away dry skin. Arrange your selection of products in the basket, keeping in mind to visually balance the items. Instead of purchasing individual items, another option is to open up a packaged set of coordinating bath products and rearrange them in your basket. The latest bestselling book and some relaxing music will make a lovely addition to your spa gift basket. Nothing relaxes you quite like music, and an enthralling book will take your friend's mind off her hectic schedule and help her unwind. The spa experience doesn't have to end when the tub is drained. Add a bottle of body lotion for the icing on the cake. If you're going all out, add some creams and lotions targeted to specific body parts, such as feet, hands, or elbows. An extra special touch would be to tuck in a gift certificate to a nearby spa. And best of all, include a written note offering to look after the kids for an evening so she can be worry-free as she enjoys her candle-lit home spa or uses her gift certificate for a relaxing treatment at the day spa. Your spa gift basket will be a thoughtful, meaningful gift for the hardworking woman in your life. It will rejuvenate her, relieve the day's stress, and make her all set to head out the door again tomorrow. Article Source: http://www.articlewheel.com
