If you are into DIY gifts, I’ve got a great, easy but wonderful gift idea for Mother’s Day! I don’t know of any mom who doesn’t like to relax so this Spa In A Jar is the perfect present to encourage moms to take some time for themselves and relax! The 3 items in the jar each have a lovely light and soft scent and are all made with Young Living essential oils (roll on fragrance, relaxing face mist and decompressing bath soak). Grab these items to make your Spa In A Jar to give and get ready to see your mom’s eyes light up with excitement!
Tutorial For DIY Spa In A Jar
Items Needed:
- Large Glass Jar with Lid
- 10ml Roller Bottle
- 1-2 oz Spray Bottle
- Pink Himalayan Salt (course or fine)
- Witch Hazel
- Liquid Coconut or Safflower Oil
- Young Living Cedarwood, Lavender and Ylang Ylang essential oils
How To Make A DIY Spa In A Jar:
DIY Roll on Fragrance Recipe
First for the roll on fragrance, grab your roller bottle, your Ylang Ylang and your Lavender oils and your coconut oil. Add 15 drops of Lavender and 15 drops of Ylang Ylang and then top off your roller with the liquid coconut oil. Pop the roller ball on and you’ve got the roll on fragrance made! It is that simple and this all natural fragrance is so nice.
Decompressing Bath Soak Recipe
Next for the Spa In A Jar, you will make the decompressing bath soak. In a small bowl, add 1 cup of your pink Himalayan salt and 5 drops of the Lavender oil and 5 drops of the Cedarwood oil. Give a quick stir and then transfer to a small plastic bag (you can use a ziplock baggie, just cut the zipper part off and tie the top of the bag with a pretty ribbon or fancy string).
Relaxing Face Mist Recipe
Lastly, for the relaxing face spray, grab your small spray bottle and add 15 drops of Lavender oil and top the rest off with your witch hazel. Lavender essential oil has a very relaxing aromatherapy effect plus it is great for the skin. Witch hazel is very cooling and has anti-inflammatory properties that make it soothing and clearing for the skin. Be sure to cover the eye area before using the relaxing face mist.
Place your DIY spa items in the mason jar (feel free to add decorative tissue paper or fluff to add an extra little something) and put the top on. You’ve got a Spa In A Jar, the perfect DIY Mother’s Day treat!
