I have made my mom a stocking with foot spa products and a gift basket with a mug, tea, hot chocolate, coffee and candy. but now I am thinking of changing the stocking to a gift basket instead. whic do you think she would like more.?
Today I tried three different scenerios with the gift basket and stocking and finally decided on mixing them together. I am giving her a blow up foot spa with winter spice foot soak, foot lotion and foot scrub from Avon. But I also included two pc games. a coffee mug, hot cocoa and a box of tea bags. filled in the extra space with tissue paper and snack size milky ways because that is her favorite.
Had enough stuff left over for another gift basket that I might keep for someone else.
probably about $25.00 worth of spa goodies and hot beverages. She will love it.
In fact today she asked me about the winterspice foot works package in Avon. so I know she will like it.
Sounds like you did a good job! Is there a way for you to share a photo of your gift basket creations? It may help someone else with their Christmas gift-buying.
