Christmas is a time for giving.  Here are a couple of great gift ideas that you can use to make your gifts more unique!



Washcloth Gift Set
Take two washcloths (preferably hand made) and package them with a bar of soap.  Tie the soap on with a ribbon for a pretty gift.  The washcloths pictured were hand crocheted by my grandmother.







Gift Basket
With two bars of soap, a bottle of lotion, a tube of lip balm, a basket, and ribbon you can make a lovely gift for anyone of your acquaintance.  Baskets are easy to find.  The best source for inexpensive baskets is the thrift store, but you can also buy new ones at most stores.  You can find basket filler, basket bags, and ribbon at Hobby Lobby (my all time favorite craft store!) or Wal-mart.  Arrange it all, tie your ribbon, and you have just turned a nice gift into an extraordinary gift!


Be creative!  How can you make your gifts more special this year?
Do you have anyone on your Christmas list this year that you don't know what to buy?  It's not that you don't care - it's just that it's hard to know what they will like and actually use (you don't just want your gift to sit around unopened on some shelf or in a closet).  Some people are hard to shop for.  

Goat milk soap, goat milk lotion, and beeswax lip balm make perfect gifts for those hard-to-shop-for people.  They are usable (they won't just sit around unused!), take little space, yet show thought and care.  These items are more special than any lotions or soaps you could buy at a store (even than those from Bath & Body Works).  Why?  Because they are handmade, quality gifts, and are good for your skin to boot!  These products show extra effort and say, "You're important!"  

These are special gifts for the special people in your life. Lots of selection is available when it comes to the goat milk soap, lotion, and lip balm.  Lotion comes in three different sizes, while soap comes in two.  You can mix and match scents, or choose a set.  Don't know what scents to go with?  Try these suggestions!
Soap: Looking for ladies?  Try Rose Petals, Vanilla Bean, Jasmine, or Lavender.  Men?  Autumn Spice, Lemongrass, or Plain N' Gentle.  Children?  Lavender, Vanilla Bean, Plain N' Gentle, or Oatmeal N' Honey.
Lotion: Ladies will love any of it!  If they are particularly girly go with Rose or White Ginger Amber.  If they want something lighter, get Pink Grapefruit or Plain N' Gentle.  Men seem drawn to Lemongrass, Oatmeal N' Honey, Plain N' Gentle, and Lavender.  Children love most any scent! 
Lip Balm: Any flavor is perfect for everyone on your list!

With Christmas quickly approaching, time is running short for shipped items to arrive on time.  Don't take a chance - get your order in soon!  Free delivery is available for any local online purchase.  Contact me for details.  Need a large quantity for gifts?  Ask about large quantity discounts.  You can find a full selection of products in my Etsy shop, or visit the appropriate pages on my website (although right now they are badly in need of updating).  Happy shopping!
