\"bath<\/a><\/p>\n

The holidays are sneaking up! I try and focus on making each holiday a handmade holiday by either making my gifts or buying from independent makers. For the women in my life, I like to make special bath and body products to stick in their stockings. The handcrafted nature of the gifts make them extra special. Here are five bath and body products to make (and keep!) this holiday season.<\/p>\n

\"homemade<\/a><\/h3>\n

1. Lip Balm<\/h3>\n

Not Martha gives us a wonderfully comprehensive run through of making homemade lip balm.<\/a> Use peppermint tins or other little boxes for eco-friendly packaging.<\/p>\n

Next >> Hand Lotion<\/a>
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"hand<\/a><\/h3>\n

2. Hand Lotion<\/h3>\n

Over on Sonoma Garden, learn how to make customizable hand lotion.<\/a> Mix and match different oils to make scents that you know your recipient would love. <\/p>\n

Next >> Solid Perfume<\/a>
\n<\/strong>
\n\"perfume<\/a><\/p>\n

3. Solid Perfume<\/h3>\n

I’ve always been a big fan of solid perfumes as opposed to the spray on kind. Now, thanks to Bella Sugar, I can easily whip up batches of my own using simple and natural ingredients<\/a>. There are also a few essential oil combination ideas that I will definitely have to try!<\/p>\n

Next >> Bath Salts<\/a>
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/h3>\n

4. Bath Salts<\/h3>\n

This is an easy, last-minute gift that will surely impress and satisfy. Planet Green shows us how to make bath salts using dried herbs and oils<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Next >> Body Scrub<\/a>
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"body<\/a><\/h3>\n

5. Body Scrub<\/h3>\n

It’s nice to give gifts that encourage a bit of pampering. I love a good body scrub for winter skin and this body scrub recipe from Kay Sexton on Feel Good Style<\/a> would be a great treat for a loved one.<\/p>\n

Are you making this holiday a handmade holiday? I would love to hear some of your favorite bath and beauty ideas for the holiday season. Do you have any product suggestions from independent makers that you love to buy for you, your friends or family?<\/strong><\/p>\n
