We use around 15 drops per jar. Base your recipe on which scent you want more and determine your drops from there. Add some drops of oils, stir around and repeat the process two more times to try and evenly disperse the oils. Garnish with evergreen, twine and a tag explaining what you’re gifting them with you and your loved ones will appreciate the homemade gift!
*This is an excellent make and take event for essential oil team parties!
Enjoy this festive and easy gift. I love that you can pair this with some skin scrub, lip balm, slippers, wine, magazines or homemade soaps for a pampering package. Or just send off to loved ones as a simple, homemade gift with a touch of Christmas!
