simple gift givers
Remember those jars I picked up a while back? Well I got a lot of great comments back on what to do with them, since I was stuck with ideas. Now, I did have that idea to make a little spa kit, well little the jar was. Let's just say the contents I picked up were a wee bit too big.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRft76Co-5k2s58q7H2157ukgtT7fBkxniMaav9_M5dbdKA7p09WgfiLs9zbhYIZOMLamBhFLUhsE5rvvUlCrX4IxXqWXJtRmuw0pa9ZFn79D7BEul6UBnmITEJmuBZkBNDuzzYqLTXS8/s400/chillisaltgift.jpg)

1. Chilli Salt
I do have some more jar gifts up my sleeve, since I couldn't settle on just one... and because now that I've started I can't seem to stop...but here a the few so far.

What foodie friend wouldn't want this?
350g of course sea salt
6 dried red chillies
reserve 50g of the salt, place the rest of the salt and chillies in a food processor and whiz for about 45 seconds. Add the remaining 50g of salt and place in a favorite jar or little gift pack.
2. Bath Fizzies
Via Martha Stewart. (Mine turned out little rustic... just don't add to much water like I did, they will react before there time, if you give these a go.)
3. Christmas Blend
(No, not the StarBucks kind.) Got a coffee drinker who likes the good ol' instant kind? Well, I just jazzed it up with some ground cinnamon and ginger for a spicy twist.
4. Christmas Caramels
These were oh so good and full of gingerbread flavor. Want to make them? Find the recipe here.
Comments
I am definitely doing the handmade christmas goodies but my jars are not as beautifully precious as yours. lovely ♥
I just end up making cookies and biscotti for everyone :) I think maybe I'll vary it up this year with rugelach (oooh, adventurous, I know! ;)).
I particularly like the Christmas blend idea, simple but would be enjoyed so much by any coffee lover!
