Sew A Spa Set Series #1: Handmade Gift Idea

Are you in need of a handmade gift idea? How about if that gift made the recipient feel super pampered? Or perhaps you need to gift this to yourself and maximise your self-care routine?

We’ve got you covered!

Welcome to the first post in our Sew A Spa Set Series. Over the next week or so we’ll be publishing our fab Sew A Spa Set Series Stay tuned as the individual tutorials drop every day or so!

The Spa Set includes everything you need for a relaxing day or evening pampering yourself, or a loved one. And nothing says I love you like a handmade gift, right?!

And with Mothers Day in the UK being just around the corner, I’m sure this Spa Set would be a treasured handmade gift this Mothers Day.

 

Handmade Gift Idea - Sew a spa set

There are 6 items that make up our Sew A Spa Set Series and if you’re pushed for time, each of these handmade items would make a great small gift on their own. You could even save these handmade gift ideas for later and build the set up over the year!

We’ve designed these mini projects to be quick & easy, so you can Sew A Spa Set that you could use on a relaxing day off, or as a last minute gift for friends or family.

So what’s in the Spa Set I hear you cry?!

If you’re just making one item we’ll put requirements on each post as they are published but please download the templates so you’re all set to go!

Tmake ALL 6 items in the Sew A Spa Set Series you will need :

We’ve used super soft bamboo towelling to make many of these useful Spa Set pamper accessories because it’s super soft, absorbent, lends itself well to reusable items. It’s also more environmentally friendly than cotton towelling.

Other project ideas the Sew a Spa Set Series templates can be used for

Once you download the Sew a Spa Set templates there are other projects you could use the patterns for… here’s some ideas for you:

  • Spa Headband Sewing Template – Switch out the towelling for fleece or another fluffy fabric to make a cute winter ear warmer
  • Reusable Cotton Pads template – size up, or change the shape to a square (and make up using the same process) to make reusable wipes or rounds
  • Eye Mask Sewing Pattern – omit the binding & layers, cut from felt and mark eye holes to make a simple kids mask
  • Bath Mitt Sewing Pattern – make from dark coloured microfibre, fine towelling or foam style fabric to make a fake tan mitt. Omit the soap pocket and make a baby bath mitt
  • Round makeup bag Sewing Pattern – size up or down to make gift bags, makeup bags, storage bags. You could even line it with PUL fabric and make an adjustable shower cap!
