Valentine's Day (or Christmas or a birthday or St. Paddy's Day, or Easter....or something) is coming right up, friends! I don't go into the stores very much any more, but I am positive there are holiday reminders every where you go right now.

I don't know about you, but I get really stressed out every time one of these big gift-giving holidays comes around. Everyone has all these expectations, right?

And you know what?

I love making gifts for people, especially if I can plan ahead a little bit. Herbal gifts, especially, are my favorites.

You know I am all into natural health and herbal healing, plus I love DIY and gardening....so, I'm sharing my favorite Natural Gift Ideas that you can easily make for friends and family (and yourself!), especially if you start now.

Herbal Gift Ideas for Valentine's Day or All the Holidays!

The Gift of Herbal Education

Sometimes the best gift isn’t something physical. When you give the gift of education, you’re giving your loved one an investment in themselves to learn. If you know your friend or family member desires to learn herbalism, I have the perfect course: Ditch the Drugstore or the Family Herbalist Certification option. Find out more here.

Herbal Chocolates

Believe it or not.....chocolate is GOOD for you! It's actually an herb! Cacao is the source of all chocolate, and the darker it is, the better it is for you. Plus---it makes you happy! So, here are some homemade chocolate recipes you can make:

*** My friend, Danielle, over at The Rustic Elk, shares her recipe for Chocolate Hearts!

*** And how about some Herbal Chocolate Bark? This is such an easy sweet and healthy treat to make, and the herbal combinations are endless!

Here is my friend, Danielle from the Rustic Elk's recipe for homemade chocolate! Yum!

Cacao nibs are a delicious and healthy ingredient in this amazing blend of herbal bitters. Learn about bitters and why they’re so good for you!

Herbal Teas for Valentine's

*** What is better than roses and chocolate, right? Everyone loves that combination! And who doesn't love a good spicy chai tea? Well, I've got you covered with my Rosy Chocolate Chai loose leaf herbal tea! Mmmmm....

*** And how about some Happiness Tea? This tea is great in the Winter, especially if you suffer from S.A.D. It's REALLY pretty, too, being made with Rose petals!

*** If you know a person who’s dealing with stress (and who isn’t these days?), here’s one of my most popular herbal teas for relaxing and dealing with stressful times.

*** How about a refreshing (and beautifully red) tea with hibiscus? Combined with some mint, this tea is amazing! Hibiscus Mint Tea Recipe is right here!

*** How about a nutritious tea that’s GREAT for helping your hair and skin? Here’s my recipe for Sensuous Skin and Healthy Hair herbal tea.

Herbal Handmade Soap and Body

This is a FUN section! Don't you love creating homemade body products? And if you don't, you can buy many of these over on Etsy (one of my favorite places)! Here are some ideas for soaps and body products you can make:

*** Lovely Cranberry Sugar & Spice Body Scrub—-This bright pink scrub is naturally colored with crushed cranberries, which contain incredible skin healthy natural properties. It’s easy and just gorgeous!

*** This Juniper and Rosemary salt (or sugar) scrub recipe is made with real herbs that are easy to find! It’s simple and takes just moments. What a thoughtful gift!

*** You can create an easy, effective and beautiful detoxifying body scrub or bath soak with rose petals! Here is my recipe for Rose Petal Body Scrub & Bath Soak---a spa experience!

*** And then there is my own hot process soap---so even if you are running out of time and don't have several weeks to cure your soap, you can STILL make your own handmade soap for Valentine's Day (or any holiday). This is a link to my Rose Petal hot process soap---It's beautiful, if I do say so myself!

For a complete soap making tutorial, see this post: Calendula and Citrus Dream Soap Tutorial and recipe.

*** If you are brand new to making handmade soaps, how about giving Melt & Pour soap making a try? You can find out how to make some super cute heart-shaped handmade soaps in under 30 minutes!

*** How about making some REAL lotion? I’m not talking about a greasy body butter. I’m talking a beautiful and soothing body cream. Here’s a recipe for my Dandelion Cream. And here’s another one for my Calendula Rose Lotion. Your friend/mom/sister will love this!

*** Don't forget about herbal salves! Salves are healing as well as being just lovely. Here is my recipe for Rose Petal Herbal Salve, and boy, does it smell terrific!

*** And one for your hair: This is for Rosemary Hair Pomade from The House and Homestead--and if you didn't know this already, rosemary is extremely excellent for your hair and scalp.

*** Here’s a lovely balm that’s meant for softening wrinkles and scars. I used this on a deep keloid scar I had, and over a period of time, it’s now just a shadow of what it once was….not even noticeable. I created this for my DIL for her tummy during pregnancy. It’s safe and effective!

And…in case you’re curious about which essential oils are best for dry skin, wrinkles, and issues, here’s a GREAT list for you.

Here's Rose Petal Soap----It's a hot process recipe, so even if you're running out of time, you can still get it made! :-)

Herbal Essential Oils for Valentine's Day

*** Honestly, there are a couple of essential oil blends I'm madly in love with right now. The first one is Love Vanilla by Plant Therapy. It's warm and sweet, but not cloying. I've been using it every single day for the past two weeks! I can't get enough of it!

*** Do you love citrus? How about Rocky Mountain Oils’ Citrus Passion blend? It’s incredibly uplifting and another great idea for the person who is struggling with stress or anxiety right now.

*** Another great choice is Spiritual Awakening Blend by Amrita Aromatherapy. It’s deep and grounding scent is a great choice for both women and men, containing sandalwood, frankincense, and atlas cedar. SO good!

*** And from Starwest Botanicals, how about their Love Essence Oil? This is a blend of aphrodisiac essential oils (rose, ylang ylang, and many others) are skillfully blended into exceptional carrier oils of sunflower and tamanu. This is not one for your diffuser, but instead useful for massing small areas or as a perfume.

Herbal Gifts for Men

Oooohhhh, those men in our lives! Aren't they just so hard to buy for? Or make things for? :-) It's always a struggle. It's easy to give underwear and socks, because they can't have enough of these....but what about a really cool gift for the guy in your life? Here are some ideas:

*** From Kelly at Simple Life Mom: There's Natural Homemade After Shave, and how about some Beard Conditioning Oil?

How about handmade soap for your guy?

*** Here's my recipe for Sexy Wild Man and Hard Hunk O' Man soaps. These are both hot process recipes, so you still have time to get them made! Note: My Sexy Wild Man recipe has been a best-selling favorite in quite a few soap making businesses, including my own, for years now! It’s a winner!

Sexy Wild Man is scented with Cedarwood, Cinnamon & Lemongrass and is just divine. Hard Hunk O' Man is Pine scented with a touch of refreshing Peppermint. Your guy will love one or both of these!

*** I put this in the Herbal Tea section above, but I'm also adding it here because this is a special tea for supporting men's reproductive health and prostate. Here is my recipe for Manly Man Tea!

*** Finally, if you are still stumped, check out my Ultimate Gift Guide for the Manly Man. There are over 100 gift ideas for ALL the men out there: The sportsman, the homesteader, the gardener, the survivalist, the prepper, the businessman....there's an idea for ALL the men!

Here's old-fashioned and effective Pine Tar Soap….perfect for your hard-working man!

Ready to make soap? Take our Natural Soap Making Course. We focus on the hot process method so you can use it right away….no cure time needed. Directions for cold process included too!

Gifts for the Home:

*** Kelly, from Simple Life Mom, shares her Homemade Air Fresheners. You're probably aware by now, but chemical fragrances, including those in candles, plug-ins, sprays, and more contain terribly damaging chemicals that affect your hormones, endocrine system, and lots more! Do your family a favor and make your own! What an awesome gift! The gift of health.

*** And, on that note, how about making some homemade beeswax candles? Here’s how to make Beeswax candles in a Mason jelly jar. SO easy, useful, and great for a friend’s home on Valentine’s Day.

Needlecraft & Sewing:

Here are two excellent gifts that require a little skill, but if you can sew or knit, these are great ideas:

*** Easy Sew Headache Pillow & Sinus Aid----I LOVE this. My friend Lisa, over at Feathers in the Woods, shares this herbal pillow, and it works!

*** And everyone could use a good scarf. My friend, Victoria, over at A Modern Homestead, shares how she makes a Cable Knit Scarf. I wish I had those skills---and if you do, I can tell you, everything Victoria does is excellent, so this will be a great pattern.
