Is there someone that you know could use a little relaxation? Maybe it’s a new mom who is exhausted? Or a more seasoned mom with multiple little ones running her ragged?

Possibly your sister stressed out with a college course load? Perhaps it’s that someone who works way too hard and doesn’t take any time for herself.

Whoever it is for, I’m sure you can think of someone in your life who would love and appreciate a relaxation gift basket! This relaxing bath gift basket could really be for anyone on your list.

This self-care gift basket pairs perfectly with this DIY bathtub tray. The bath table may not fit in the basket, but it’s the perfect complement to the spa kit, don’t you think?

How To Make A Gift Basket

Have you ever put together a gift basket for someone? It’s pretty simple, really!

All you need to do is:

  • Select a gift basket theme (in this case, I’m making a relaxation gift basket)
  • Collect your contents
  • Grab a basket that will fit all of your contents
  • Throw it all together
  • You could also cover the whole thing with shrink wrap and tie a ribbon bow at the top to keep it contained.
