Hello everyone! I want to wish everyone a Happy Mother’s Day and a fun weekend spending time with your family & friends.
I am so happy to join a group of sweet friends on the 10th of each month. Each month will have a different theme. This month is gifts for Mother’s Day, End of School, or any spring/ summer occasion.
I had to think of a gift that would work for any of the above. I thought to myself, what is something, no matter what age, we do during the spring and summer months? It dawned on me…we all love to wear open-toed shoes. I decided to gather up a few things and make a foot-spa gift basket, that would work for any type of occasion.

The first thing I wanted to do is find something to keep all the items organized when not using it and would be cute as a gift basket. I found this perfect plastic caddy at the Dollar Tree. I filled the caddy with some white crinkle shredded paper.
I rolled up a Dollar Tree white hand towel and placed it in the smaller divider.
When I was in Dollar Tree I spotted this Amope´ Pedi Perfect Electronic nail file. I grabbed a couple of them, I wanted one for myself and for my daughter. I placed in the back divider. Using the nail file helps to remove rough edges and give both fingernails and toenails a healthy shine.
I also found this Pod foot file with finishing pads it says it will help take care of the roughness and cracking around the heels of the feet. I placed it in the back of the caddy too.
I found this cute little zipper pouch that I thought would be great to hold the Amope′ and the pads. I tucked the pouch in the back divider in front of the other two items.
I placed a pedicure paddle in the larger front divider. I have one and can tell you I love to keep this in my shower on a hook. It is so easy to use while taking your shower. To use the pedicure paddle, do a gentle back-and-forth rub with the pumice stone along rough spots, like your heels, toes and the bottoms of your feet.
I thought the hand held rolling massager would be great to use for aching feet. Being on our feet all day, the massager can improve the blood circulation and relieve tension. Placing this next to the paddle in the caddy.
I added a little candle to the caddy. Candlelight is known to induce soothing, healing and peaceful energy.
I wanted to take the pedicure items out of the package. I placed the pumice stone and brush next to the candle.
I took a piece of string and placed it on the clippers to place on the rolling massager so it wouldn’t get lost in the basket of shredded paper.
Placed the pedi separators in front of the hand towel.
Adding lotion to the caddy is a must. I have dry skin and used a lot of different types of lotions, this Diabetics’ Foot Cream is one of the best for the price. Sticking this in the back divider.
One last little item, I placed a bottle of LA Color nail polish #527 Delicate pink also in the basket.
To give the little caddy some style I took a pink plaid ribbon and weaved it in and out of the basket. I made a bow tying it on the ribbon.
I made a little tag with a cute saying and placed it on the caddy.
I would love to receive this gift basket, wouldn’t you? It’s a simple but a cute little gift to give to someone. You don’t have to spend a lot of money to give a nice gift. Since I knew the basket’s theme it was easy picking things up to place in the basket.

If a Foot Spa gift basket isn’t what you want to give, check out the other girl’s gift ideas. I have them all listed for you below.
Decorating our home on a budget is my thrill. I think a home can look beautiful without breaking the bank. Your home should bring the best out of you and make you feel happy. You should smile every time you enter your home. 🙂
Such a great gift basket!! Perfect for mother’s day!

It was a fun basket to make. I had to get three of everything. One for me, one for my daughter and one for a gift. It was things we all use.
Terrie, I love the nail polish color. Such a cute idea. I haven’t given myself a pedicure in years, but I would still love the candle and the foot paddle for the shower. The ribbon gives the basket a nice colorful touch. Very creative. Hope you had a great Mother’s Day.
I thought a settle color everyone would like. I usually go get myself a pedi but sometimes when I have no time to I love to have the stuff at hand to give myself a little one until I can get the full pedi. Love hopping with you Carol!
That makes a great gift! I can hardly believe that was under $10.00! Way to go! Happy Mother’s day
Thank Cindy. It amazes me what Dollar Tree carries at times. I hope you have a great weekend and Mother’s Day!
There’s nothing like a little pampering for your feet and the container is perfect – it’s waterproof! Great idea, Terrie!
I think so too Ann. I only wish I could put someone in the basket to do the work. 🙂 Thank you Ann!
Hi Terrie! I love this idea and will have to make one up and leave in our guest bathroom for when family comes to stay. Would be a lovely gift to send home! Love the pale pink toe polish… will have to look for it. 😉 And I can’t believe all this was found at the dollar store?! I need to go inside more often.
Thanks for the great gift idea! Happy to be with you on 10 on the 10th again.
Happy Mother’s Day,
Barb 🙂
It is so nice to have for your guest. That’s a great idea to place in a guest bathroom. Thank you! Yes the Dollar Tree has some really nice things. Love hopping with you Barbara!
Now, this is my idea of a perfect present! I need to visit the Dollar Tree ASAP.
Laura. When making this basket I had to grab me the same to have on hand too. I would love of found a person to place in the basket to pamper our feet for us. ha!
Terri,
This gift basket is a wonderful idea for any mom, or hard-working gal! I love the way you “helped us” assemble the basket. YES, I would definitely like receiving this gift. I’m headed to Dollar Tree to pick up these items for my D-I-L and daughter! Thanks for sharing.
That would be a perfect little gift for your girls in the family. I had to pick up my daughter and myself each things too. Love having things like that when I don’t have time to go get myself a pedicure. Happy Mother’s Day Barbara.
Terrie, I love this! It is adorable and has so many wonderful things in that sweet basket. I will send you my address and you can ship it on over! 🙂 So glad to be joining you on the monthly blog hop! Have a great Mother’s Day! Hugs!
you are so cute. I would you know that! Wouldn’t it be great if we could place a person in the basket to pamper our feet for us? Have a great weekend!
What a great idea. I am going to pay more attention to items in the dollar store from now on….I never go down the personal care aisle! The recipient will love this gift!!
I think I spend hours in the store. I love just walking down each aisle slowly. You just never know what you will find from day to day. Happy Mother’s Day!
Such a cute basket! What a selection of items too. Great idea. I’m going to have to pick up a few just for myself. Welcome to Ten on the 10th!
Thank you Tammy! I hope you find everything you want there. You never know what you will find day to day. Happy Mother’s Day Tammy.
That is darling. You found some great stuff. I think I need to head to Dollar Tree.
I am surprised at some of the items Dollar Tree carries. I went back to grab more of the Amope but they were all sold out. I hope you find all what you want to get there!
Now who would not love this for Mother’s Day?? Great gift!
I think so too Susan. I for one would be happy to receive this. I bought three of everything. One for the basket, one for my daughter and one for ME! Have a great weekend!
