Though buying an aromatherapy set is always an option you would be surprised to learn that it is extremely easy and also economical to make relaxing bath salt and aromatic candles at home.

To make relaxing bath salts you have to mix together equal quantity of coarse sea salt and baking soda.

Decorate the jar with ribbons and add a personal message to show the thought that had gone behind creating such a unique gift. You can actually create mint and other aroma candles at home by purchasing some wax and essential oils. Candles could be created in small wine glasses or other exquisitely designed glass jars.

- Knit a scarf or sweater

Make this Christmas extra special for your mum by knitting her a scarf and gloves and assembling them together in a brightly coloured box. Your mother will surely admire Christmas hampers with a personal touch more than other gifts.

- Bake her special cakes and cookies

- Let pictures talk

Last but not the least it is the time to become creative, prepare a collage by using the pictures from every phase of your life. Print and stitch them together to prepare a warm comforter which will also take your mum often down the memory lane.
