Have a home spa party for your next bridal shower or birthday party

When you have a home spa party; a few important things spring to mind immediately. For a start, you’ll need to set a mood that is conducive to relaxation and comfort. Lots of candles always relax people, and if you combine it with lots of appropriate color combinations- like purple and pink- you’re well on the way to getting everyone at your home spa party in the mood for a relaxing celebration. A simple but effective way to get everyone in the mood-especially for a wedding spa party- is a few rose petals spread over water like in the picture below.

Music is another important consideration when you decide to have a home spa party. The music needs to be relaxing and not take everybody’s attention away from the color and candles. You can research it a little by paying attention to the sorts of music and sounds you hear in places you visit.

Home spa parties are becoming more and more popular, especially home spa birthday parties and home spa bridal showers. A home spa party is a great way to indulge yourself and your guests with some healthy food and some indulgent skin care, hair care, and general pampering.

Close your eyes and envision an intimate setting with wonderfully decorated tables adorned with beautiful hand creams, nail polishes and nail grooming tools. Chocolates and healthy finger food are a must (...and yes I know chocolate technically isn’t healthy, but that’s only if you over indulge). A home spa basket is a great idea and makes a great gift.

Start things with Some Food When you Have a Home Spa Party

People often make the mistake of thinking that party food has to be bad for you: but this need not be the case. Remember that a large part of many meals is visual... meaning you eat with your eyes, too. If the food looks tasty and indulgent, then it will taste that way... with or without the fat and sugar.

Tasty trays of fresh fruit and vegetables are perfect for a spa party because a healthy diet is such a critical part of skin care. You can add some dips for the vegetables and fruit but don’t overdo it. Remember that you want to have fun but not feel guilty about indulging in the wrong types of food. Yogurt is often a sensible alternative to creamy dips.

Cheese trays and shrimp rings are also great for home spa parties.

Home Spa Party Ideas

Hiring a professional to come in and do massage, facials, manicures, pedicures, or just supply home spa baskets and accessories is a great idea. Nowadays there are even mobile spas available in a lot of cities.

However, if the expense of hiring a professional is something you’d rather avoid, it is very easy to do it yourself. Do some research through my website for great ideas and spa treatments- they’re not difficult to create. In fact, with a bit of research you can easily pass yourself off as an expert.

Decorative glass bottles and gift jars are perfect for homemade massage oils, body lotions, body scrubs or facial masks and can be obtained from the many Dollar stores, Two dollar stores, 99 cent stores, etc.

Get your Home Spa Party into Full Swing

Home spa is a very broad topic and it could be difficult to cover everything during a party. Keep in mind that face and body masks can create some mess and therefore it’s always a good idea to have lots of towels for the job. Don’t skimp on the towels, either: make them fluffy and you can even warm them up in the clothes dryer before use.

Whether you’re planning a home spa birthday party, a home spa wedding party, or any other type of home spa party, it’s a good idea not to try and do too much. So, if you can afford to hire a professional to help out, it’s a really good idea. Also try combining your own handmade spa treatments and gifts with some that have been purchased. Whatever you decide, I hope you have a great time now that you’ve decided to have a home spa party.
