Simple and Heartfelt Gift for Your Best Friend on a budget (Personal sample Set)

Every year around the holidays, almost every store comes out with a variety of “holiday sample sets”. Boxes of mini perfume samples, varieties of makeup samples, holiday themed bath bomb samples, the options are honestly endless. This got me thinking…instead of just buying one for your friend this year, why not make it a bit more personal and create a “sample set” based off of YOUR personal brand!?


I looked around my house and local thrift store to find a variety of glass jars. Then made sure to clean them up by boiling them in some water.

 
 

Next, I collected some of my personal favourites…no theme in particular, just things that bring me joy that are not very well known. I rounded up the following but remember this can be personal to what YOU like.

 
 

Now fill up your glass jars with the products, it’s that simple! I even propagated a cutting of my pothos plant and added it to the glass vile to put into the package.

 
 

To take it one step further, I labeled each item then printed out a gift tag with a QR code explaining what they are and why I love them. Then I packed it up in a cute basket I found at the thrift store and it’s ready to be gifted! A practical and heartfelt gift for your bestie!
