BellaOnline Forums Hobbies and Crafts Soapmaking What should be in a basket?

What sorts of items do you think should be in a soap basket?

Should they have just soap, soap and salts, soap, salts and lotions? What about shampoo's and conditioner?

Personally, I love(d) the combination of soaps, bath salts and lotion....maybe a sponge, loofah or some type of bath "aid" (LOL, sounds bad).

My husband suggested a packet of tea and for bigger, more expensive baskets add a beautiful teacup......he likes to treat me to a hot scented bath with either nice tea or a nice glass of wine.

Cheryl has some really "yummy" scents and beautiful presentation!

Thank you Kitty! I'm so glad you liked them. <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I agree with the idea of some nice tea or maybe even a couple of single serve coffees. It's my belief that so many women do not take care of themselves by taking time to really relax. It's my true opinion that we should each try to carve out a bit of time each day to do something just for ourselves. I do admit though, that I don't always do it either.

Kitty I normally like to put a loofah or spongey in the baskets. I didn't have one that matched your soaps. <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

You didn't have one that went with my soaps!!! LOL - I got so many goodies, believe me I have a spongey or two around. Have you seen the bathing gloves - the ones made of a rough (knitted??) fabric that are great scrubbers?? I wore my pair out...

I have seen those in the stores but as of yet haven't been able to find a wholesaler for them. I have located the loofa/terry bath mit that I plan to carry.

Kitty I just realized I forgot to send you a little finger brush! I'm sorry! That should have been in that basket too.
