[Coty]

Mother’s Day is almost here! I have always looked at Mother’s Day as not only a way to say “thanks Mom!” but also a day for her to take “off” and do something for herself for a change. You know, like pampering! And what better way to help mom pamper herself but with a sweet Mother’s Day Spa Gift Basket!

I like to make the basket myself. I know I can make a budget-friendly version that includes mom’s favorite things so its totally customized.

This gift basket can really be made with just about anything your little heart desires. I chose a variety of pampering items and I’ll break them down for you here:

Chocolate

This is a no-brainer. Your gift MUST include chocolate. (Ok, not really, but you want mom to love it right? Just trust me on this. Chocolate.)

Mani-Pedi Supplies

Choose some fun spring/summer shades. Something bright and fun. You could even do each other’s nails for a little girl time.

Loofah or Pouf

I like to include a loofah or bath pouf. Maybe a bottle of her favorite bubble bath, or some home made bath salts. A nice bubble bath will relax and soothe and she can soak her cares away! Doesn’t that sound fantastic?

Body Butter

I like to also include a rich body butter and/or a body scrub. For something natural, you can include a coconut oil body butter such as this one.

Facial Masks

Almost nothing feels better than a nice relaxing facial. I love the DIY versions at home. These little packets work wonderfully. Mom can put one on while she takes a relaxing soak in the tub!

Perfume

Perfumes can get really pricey, but these Love2Love scents from Coty are not only a great value, but they are perfect for spring. I chose two different ones because they are a nice addition to the basket, and since they are only $9.98 each at Walmart, you can afford to get more than one! I chose the the new Bluebell+White Tea and Jasmine+Sparkling Mimosa fragrances (mmm…mimosas….). Both are cheerful, fun, springtime scents that are perfectly uplifting after a relaxing day of pampering!

Put the whole thing together in an inexpensive basket. You could also get creative with your container and incorporate it into your theme, like using a footbath as the container for a mani/pedi themed basket. Or an ice bucket for a wine-themed gift basket. The options are endless!

What would you love to get in a Mother’s Day Gift Spa Gift Basket?
