Father’s Day Gentleman’s Spa Gift Basket For Your Hubby

Who says a manly man can’t get pampered?? My hard-working husband deserves some extra love and pampering this year. This Father’s Day I am gifting my hubby a spa day in a basket, with high quality products he will actually use. I put together this gift basket that I am sure he is going to love! I hope this gives you some inspiration to create your own Father’s Day Gentleman’s Spa Gift Basket For Your Hubby.

When putting together this gift basket, I knew I wanted to get my hubby a new grooming system. His razor is ancient and it was time for an upgrade. He never buys himself anything self-care related so I am hoping this basket will make him spend an afternoon having an at-home pamper day to relax. When it comes to body grooming for men, Manscaped is now the biggest name in the business! I have seen their commercials that honestly make me blush and giggle because I am just way too immature for it. But I’ve read a lot of reviews and heard really great things! Plus, what appears as a gift for him, is really a gift for you! Ya know what I mean?

I recently learned about their partnership with the Testicular Cancer Society and knew I wanted to work with this brand. Their mission is to make a more open and confident male culture that results in guys being way more proactive around self-care and health. Their goal is to raise awareness about the most common form of cancer in men age 15-35 and provide help and support to fighters, survivors, and caregivers. You hear a lot about the signs and treatments and organizations that help to fight breast cancer and cervical cancer, but I don’t often hear about testicular cancer. It is estimated that 8,000 to 10,000 men will develop testis cancer each year! The chance of developing testis cancer is about one in 270. That seems like a pretty high number!

Thank you to Manscaped for collaborating with me on this Father’s Day gift basket! As always, all opinions are my own.

Manscaped Refined Cologne- $49.99

This light, yet masculine fragrance is Hypoallergenic, Cruelty Free, Dye Free, Paraben Free, and Vegan! A little goes a long way with this cologne so I know he will get a lot of use out of it.

DIY Beard Oil

A couple weeks ago my husband shaved off his beard with no warning at all! He is now left with an 80s cop mustache and though I still think he looks amazing, I am hoping this beard oil will give him the hint that I miss his mountain man beard!

Beard oil recipe:

  • 2 drops of lavender
  • 5 drops of frankincense
  • 5 drops of cedarwood
  • 3 drops of orange

Start with an empty and clean amber dropper bottle. Add in your essential oils of choice, and then fill with a carrier oil to just below the neck of the bottle. I used a combination of hemp seed oil and jojoba oil. These carrier oils are both really great for the skin!

DIY Bath Salts

I filled a glass mason jar with a mix of Epsom salts and pink Himalayan salt and added in a couple drops of cedarwood essential oil. I made a label and wrapped twine around the neck of the jar a couple times.

Bamboo Hair Comb

This wood comb is wide tooth on one end and fine tooth on the other.

Loofah on a rope

I love natural loofahs! They exfoliate the skin so well and this one is on a rope so you can hang it up in the shower.

Father's Day Gentleman's Spa Gift Basket For Your Hubby

To keep the items in the basket propped up, I ripped and crinkled up a large old brown paper bag. Then I sprinkled some brown crinkle paper I had on hand (Dollar Tree sells bags of these). This helped keep the items from sinking to the bottom of the basket.

A Smaller Version of the Father’s Day Gentleman’s Spa Gift Basket For Your Hubby:

I put together this smaller basket for another option as well! Maybe your hubby is not a big bath taker so the bath salts wouldn’t get used. I skipped the cologne in this one too, because I know some men are just really picky about their fragrances. This one has the Manscaped Lawnmower 4.0, the DIY beard oil, and the Ultra Smooth Package kit. All in a smaller basket from Target.

My label maker I use for all my DIY bath and body products:

Free printable gift tag and card

I made this gift tag for you to print off and fill out! Print this out on card-stock, use a hole punch in the corner and tie this to your basket with some twine.

Or you can print this out as a landscape folding greeting card here. The inside is blank so you can write a comical or sexy message to your hubby. Print it out landscape on card-stock and fold in half.

I hope this gave you some ideas to make your own gift basket for your hubby this year! What would you add to the basket?

Happy Memorial Day ! Thank you to those who courag Happy Memorial Day !
Thank you to those who courageously gave their lives for our freedoms. 🇺🇸
Whew what a week ! Thank goodness for church and t Whew what a week ! Thank goodness for church and the good Word to renew and fill me with hope. Last week was a doozy and felt like it wouldn't ever end. Good & bad things happened, but more bad than I'd like. My grandma passed away and then we were in a stressful scramble for 2 days trying to figure out who could take care of our animals and dogs and garden & afford flights, a hotel and rental car to go to Chicago for the services(we ended up just having to book a flight for me & Liam and my husband and Theo will stay behind to hold down the homestead). We had a big playhouse we bought off FB marketplace delivered that Nate and Liam have been repairing and painting. It's turning out great ! I know many memories will be made in there, and I can't wait to share the before & afters. Though my poor husband has way too many projects going on at once again. 😬 
 My dog tried to eat baby bunnies. Twice 🤦‍♀️ Liam got some kind of poison ivy or poison oak rash all over and now today it has gotten pretty bad. His poor little cheek is all red and swollen and he's miserably itchy. Last night while driving home from a restaurant, I hit a coyote that jumped across the highway. Our brand new car's bumper is wrecked. 
The other day I went to the garden to find all the marigolds I planted next to my tomatoe plants died out of nowhere, and something is eating my pole beans. 🙃 
How I've been coping ? 
1. Finally cracking open a prayer journal I got for Christmas from my best friend and pouring my heart out. 
2. Spurts of intense deep cleaning that makes me utterly exhausted 
3. Trying to plan a couple fun things while Liam and I are in Chicago for a few days. Liam was SO excited it would just be us two going on this trip because we don't get much time just the two of us since Theo was born. I want to make the best of it and think it will be nice for the focus to be on Liam for a few days. 

Even though life has been busy and crazy and sad, I still just feel incredibly grateful and blessed for what the Lord has given me and my family. I'm ready to be home and hug my family and celebrate the beautiful life of my Grandma Alice.
Do you have plans to go camping with your kids thi Do you have plans to go camping with your kids this Summer ? I have a blog post from a few years ago that has a free printable kids packing list. This checklist gives kids an easy to follow list to be independent and responsible for their own pack for a weekend camping trip. 
I don't know if we'll get to camping before baby gets here in July, but we plan to camp this Autumn for just short weekend getaways. 
Now that Liam is 3 years older since creating that checklist, I may even add a couple more things. A tick remover to be added to his first aid kit would be helpful, and having his own bug spray. 
Head ro the blog (link in my bio) to see the list and let me know if you'd add anything to it ! 😊 
Tell me about your camping trips this Summer ! I'd love to know ⛺️
Yesterday Bowie brought home a limp baby bunny tha Yesterday Bowie brought home a limp baby bunny that I'm guessing was about 10 or so days old. His eyes were barely open. I had to scoop him up and push my dog out of the way who was super confused as to why I was so mad at him. I kept him warm and he snuggled into my arm and belly and fell asleep 😭 Liam searched and searched the thick brush at the edge of the forest, and deep into a thorn-covered bush, there was the little burrow with a few other little baby bunnies. He snuggled right back in next to them. 
Bowie got into their burrow again today ! 😩 Liam was devastated, but I think they're alright. 
Then we realized a finch made a beautiful nest with 3 little eggs in our shed, so we have to find a new home for the sweet nest as we're having our shed moved soon on our property to use as a chicken coop and to make way for building a garage. Any tips on how to safely move a bird's nest? 😬 
And before anyone comes at me for not wearing gloves to pick this little babe up, there was no time. And it's a myth that a mama rabbit will reject their young just because they smell weird. We've had baby bunnies before and I'm guessing mama just gave them a good bath.
One of the most important people in my life made h One of the most important people in my life made her way up to heaven yesterday. My grandma Alice, my boy's GG, I imagine is slow dancing with Grandpa John and he's smiling with his blue eyes and saying "about time, Alice". My Grandma raised 5 children, was  devoted to her church, gave to charities that were close to her heart, had many friends, traveled all over the world, and loved her husband fiercely. She was an amazing mother and THE best grandmother. I never went to her house without a proper tea time complete with cookies and little snacks. She took care of my family when my mom was diagnosed with stage 4 acute Leukemia when I was just 3 months old. 
She was one of the first people I would call with good news, like when Nate proposed or I found out I was pregnant, or we were buying a house. She gave the best warm sincere hugs. Her laugh was contagious. I like to think my love for singing, roses, history, birds, and hosting comes from her. She made holidays so fancy and special. If I close my eyes I can hear the crackle of the fireplace at an Aubele Christmas party with a house full of Aubele's talking louder and louder with the smell of coffee and sweets in the dining room on the buffet. Laughter & warmth filling every inch of that house. I have always dreamed of a large family because of her. She was an amazing storyteller and often told me stories of our ancestors. And we have some pretty crazy family stories! She was proud to be Ojibwa and often reminded me to be proud as well. She was an amazing seamstress and made her grandchildren dolls & dresses & teddy bears. Family was the most important thing to her, and I knew at a young age that serving my own family someday was also what I wanted to do. 
Even though she passed yesterday, I have been mourning my grandma for over a year. Dementia took hold of my sweet Grandma Alice and I couldn't call her on the phone anymore. When I saw her this April, she had no idea who I was or who my Dad, her own son, was. I couldn't call to tell her I was pregnant with my 3rd son. I couldn't call to tell her I moved from MT to VA and that we bought a homestead. My grandma has been gone for some time👇🏼
