Fathers Day Gift Basket

Fathers Day is coming.... what are you going to give Dad.

Stop go No Further.... Why not a Gift Basket which you can not only make but save heaps of money by including items that you know he will love.

Try this homemade receipe for handwash...

Mechanic's Hand Cleanser
Grind up a bar or two of your soap...

1 c. borax
1-2 t. pure turpentine
1 t. sweet orange essential oil
1 c. ground soap
With very clean hands, work the turpentine and essential oil into the borax until there are no lumps left, then work into the soap. Keep it in a wide-mouthed jar or tin that's easy for him to open when his hands are greasy, and which you won't mind getting black on the outside. Don't forget to put a nail brush and pumice stone out with the hand cleanser.

Fill a bucket with things that Dad can use in the garage or shed. Make it around a garden theme or a motor theme or golf theme.. in fact the type of basket you create is endless.

Have fun and enjoy.
Donna
