Many of us enjoy going the DIY route for holiday gifts. Whether it be our crafty nature, conscious consumerism, or the necessity for more frugal choices, handmade gifts are a way to participate in the giving nature of the holidays in a way you can feel good about. Sometimes time slips by us during the busy holiday season and it can feel like there is no time left to create thoughtful and fun gifts for those close to us. These quick and easy DIY gifts are a great way to give a handmade gift with just a few supplies and mere minutes of time.

When even last minute DIY gifts are not quick enough, don’t worry! There are many great items that the essential oil enthusiast in your life will love. A Palo Santo necklace or bracelet is a unique gift for those who enjoy the scent and benefits of the amazing wood to carry with them at all times. You can also give your friends the gift of aromatherapy with a home diffuser or an Aroma Companion for diffusing on the go. Kits include the diffuser as well as a selection of popular essential oils for easy gift giving and no guesswork.
