anhoki Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 OK....I also made a gift bag for my mil. Not sure why but I did...This was not a throw it together type of thing either. The picture is blurry BUT we have a Tangerine body wash (from scratch), Apricot Peaches & Pears body spray (from scratch), Cucumber Melon lip balms, my gnarly sea kelp soap, Kiwi Sunsweet (Tony's), Cafe Mocha Mint (custom blend) and Love Spell. I spent a lot of time on this one and she SO WON'T appreciate it. Not sure why I bother.THEN...I took some of my shampoo that I had and split it up. I had a Berry Blast shampoo and a Warm Vanilla Sugar batch. I took 3 of each and paired them with a bar of my Sandalwood Monoi that I made a couple of weeks ago and added a cucumber melon lip balm to it. This will go to all of the moms in our extended family.I got a box ready for a friend in Canada. I love her... she had me send the box to Seattle so I would not have to fill out the flippin' customs form. She bought 8 soaps. A nice little excuse to buy 5# of coffee from Starbucks. I got one of the many swap boxes out the door too. This one I decided to make the berry blast shampoo and a lotion with orange peel wax. Yummy. After all of this it is 1:10 AM and I am tired. Hope you have a good weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherie Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 Those look awesome!!!!!! Label the body spray "Monster Spray". She probably won't get the "monster-n-law" joke but you will!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaybee23 Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 Very nice, I like the bands on your soaps. I am sure they will appreciate all of your hard work. If they don't, then you can just send them here, LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anhoki Posted May 14, 2006 Author Share Posted May 14, 2006 Thank you ladies...You guys make me feel special. They did like them too. The mil was put on the spot so she had no choice but to like it. I gave it to her after I gave my mom her candles while EVERYONE was right there. She said she was almost out of body wash and soaps and this was much appreciated. Hmmmmmm....
