DIY Homemade Gifts

When it comes to giving a thoughtful, personal gift for Mothers’ Day, nothing beats the magic of homemade products crafted with love.

Shea Butter is an amazing base for creating personalised care products. Gently warm around 110g of Shea Butter in a bain marie (a glass bowl over a lightly bubbling pan of water) until it’s liquid, then remove it from the heat and let it cool for a few moments.  Blend it at a ratio of 50:50 with your favourite carrier oil, such as sweet almond or fractionated coconut oil for deep moisturisation and let the mixture cool – pop it in the fridge if you like!  Once cooled, take a whisk and give the mixture a good mix up – the whisking will aerate the mix and make it lovely and light and creamy!  Pop essential oils of your choice in, at a ratio of 1-3% (usually a couple of drops of each oil is enough) and give them a good whisk into the mixture too.   Some lovely essential oils to try are Lavender, for its wonderful soothing qualities and Rose to which is popular for use in skincare, especially for dry/mature skin types. By separating the Shea Butter into smaller containers, you can create a beautiful range of skincare products your mum will adore!  You could even create your own label with instructions or a little gratitude note on it!

Our Organic Castile Soap is also a great base for home made products, it is amazingly versatile, gentle, deep cleansing and fragrance free. This soap is ideal for a variety of self-care cleaning needs, from washing the dishes, clothes and floors, to cleansing delicate skin and washing hair. If you’re looking to personalsze your gift, simply decant the Castile Soap into separate bottles, and mix in your choice of essential oils to make a whole range of products tailored to your Mum’s needs or favourite scents. Here are a few easy ways to turn this natural soap into practical, luxurious gifts!

Washing Up Liquid for Hands and dDishes: To make washing dishes a more pleasant task, add a ratio of 1 drop of your Mum’s favourite essential oil to a tablespoon of Castile Soap. She’ll love the natural fragrance while washing up!

Hand and Hair Wash: Simply add a few drops of essential oils to create a hand or hair wash that’s gentle and aromatic, perfect for everyday use.

Bath Dispersing Oil is another excellent way to put your own spin on our bath oils, creating a fragrance and aroma you know your mother will love! Mix a few drops of essential oil with a capful of our Bath Dispersing Oil, and add it to a warm bath for a calming, fragrant soak. For a truly restful experience, try blending Lavender Oil or our signature Goodnight Blend with a teaspoon of Bath Dispersing Oil, creating a soothing pre-bedtime ritual that will help her unwind.

Whether your Mum enjoys self-care, cleaning, or simply deserves to indulge in a relaxing bath and pamper evening, these personalised all-natural products are a thoughtful way to show how much you care. Let your creativity flow and tailor these simple, natural ingredients to suit her tastes for a Mothes’s Day she’ll never forget or surprise her with the perfect gift bundle to help her relax and rejuvenate on her special day!
