How to Make Up a Phoo-Phoo Basket

Your best friend just lost a family member.
You know someone going through a divorce.
How about a mother with kids, bills, house
to clean and grocery shopping to do?
OR perhaps it's your wife with all of this going on.
Here's how to make her feel good and on top of the world. Make her a Phoo-Phoo Basket.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• A large pretty basket
• A small basket
• Aromatic bath oil
• Nice candle holder, a multiple candle holder is best.
• new plush bath sheet
• Aromatic candles
• Big body buff
• Pretty hair clip
• A short Romance novel
• Small disc player, with headphones
• Some soothing music or her favorite tunes
• Personal size bottle of wine and a wine glass
• Scented body spray
• Body powder
• Moisturizing body lotion
• Scented liquid soap
• A nice big hair brush
• Inflatable head rest

1. 
    
   bath gift basket

   Take the big basket put the bath oil, book, wine, wine glass, Disc player, music disc, body buff, liquid soap and hair clip in it.
   In the small basket put the moisturizing body lotion, body powder, scented body spray and hair brush.
   If it's a gift put the candles and candle holder, bath sheet and inflatable head rest in a pretty gift bag.

2. 
    
   big plush bath sheets

   SET UP:( You can set this up it's even better.)
   Make time for her to take time to herself. Like an hour or so.
   Make sure the kids are bathed and ready for bed.
   Put some carpet freshener on the carpet and vacuum, straighten up a little.
   Go in and run a nice hot bath with a little bath oil in it. Inflate the head rest, attaching it to the tub.
   Set the big basket on the floor next to the bath tub. Lay the bath sheet near by ( on the toilet or bath mat.)
   Set the candle holder near the tub where she can see it, put the candles in and light them.
   Set the smaller basket on the sink counter with the brush laying near it.
   Now lead her to the bathroom, tell her to enjoy and shut the door.

3. 
    
   strawberries and whip cream

   While she is doing this you can make the rest of the Phoo-Phoo.
   Tuck the kids into bed.
   Prepare some Strawberries, Grapes and whip cream.
   Put them on a table with a candle on it.
   Set the lighting down low, for a continued relaxed mood.
   You can leave or go to a different part of the house and listen for the kids, phone, whatever.

Tips & Warnings

• She will thank you.
• This is something she probably won't think of doing for herself.
• This is a nice way to show your support. Whether you are a friend, relative or lover.
• Bath oil is slippery when you get up and out of the tub. Make sure you have a bath mat and bathroom rug in place.
• Try to make sure all the scents match or compliment each other.
