I’m quite crafty when it comes to Christmas Gifting, not crafty as in sellotape, pieces of felt and glitter pens — crafty as in, Wily Coyote. Hence my latest find…
The Wrap Your Own Gift Set from Avon is priced at £10.00 and its contents include:
Skin So Soft Soft and Sensual Replenishing Hand Cream 75ml,
Naturals Lime Blossom and Verbena Shine Drops 50ml,
Planet Spa Mediterranean Olive Oil Hydrating Face Mask 75ml,
Naturals Strawberry & Guava Refreshing Shower Gel 200ml,
Naturals Strawberry & Guava Room & Linen Spray 125ml,
Soft Pink Bubble Bath 500ml,
Skin So Soft Soft and Sensual Replenishing Body Lotion 250ml,
Foot Works Heel Softening Cream 75ml.
Now, this would make a nice(ish) present just by itself (you know I’d prefer Burberry)… but my idea would be to split it. Keep the bits that I know will get used up quickly in our household and fashion the rest into ‘themed’ gift ideas.
Example: My Mum’s Xmas stocking is themed on Winter Skin and from this kit, I’d include: Skin So Soft Hand Cream, Planet Spa Face Mask, and Foot Works Heel Softening Cream. Those items will go nicely with some of the bits I’ve already bought her.
You could also theme a “Spa Night In” with some, if not most, of these items and throw in some slippers and a hot chocolate kit to complete an impressive and thoughtful ensemble.
Me? I’d be stealing the basket and extra wrappings which include: a wire basket, tissue paper, a sheet of cellophane, and a ribbon to use on another (dareIsayit) posher pressie.
.
Do you get crafty or indeed crafty when it comes to Christmas pressies?
I’m very crafty indeed when it comes to Xmas wrapping and like you, I’d be stealing the wire basket for myself at the very least! I also buy lovely wired ribbon and make my own bows – costs a little more but looks so much more decadent!
I very nearly bought this (and still might at a later date) but decided on a variety of smaller bits and pieces in the end….as well as some perfume for me. I need an intervention!! 😀 x
I saw this in the Avon catalogue too….lol! Quite worth it, I’d say…..but don’t think will be getting it though…. 😉
