Of course, haven't had a chance to test how the sales of my Mother's Day spa box might go, but I want to get the soap made now. The men's spa box is tougher.
Soap Man Hands (coffee grounds) $5
Soap Man Feet (pumice) $5
Soap Vanilla Bacon Milkshake $5
Beard oil (glass bottle) OR heel salve $8 (they would pick)
Back scratcher $8 (mom is going to make the handle on the wood lathe for me)
Lip balm $2
Lip balm $2
Big lip balm $5 (1 oz)
Sachet $2
Sachet $2
Luffa $5
These are a sort of estimated value. The box will sell for $50, with $40 of that going to the dog rescue I work with and $10 to me for shipping costs. My rough plan (for now) is to offer 2 different boxes a month, with a qty of 20 or 25 each. May will be the Mother's Day box (going to try to make 50 of those) and a box of all no-scent-added things. There will be the natural scents from beeswax, cocoa butter and coconut oil, and possible a sachet made with cedar shavings and lavender buds, but no FOs or EOs.
I'm making my sachets out of coffee filters, b/c I have a lot of those. Usually I use one filter and tie them into a little pouch, but I'm considering using 2 filters and sewing them into a flat circle. I figure then people can lay them in the bottom of the drawer and they won't get in the way, but will provide a good surface area? Again, probably cedar and something.
