Anzee smiled as she read her first order. She knew exactly what she would make for this princess.
It took her a while to find a basket that was good enough for a princess, but she did find one! It was wide and made of a lovely woven material. The fiber it was made of was reeds and they were dyed red and a deep golden color and woven in spiral patterns. She set the basked upon her work table which was against the wall behind the counter. She went again in the back to look around for some of the candles she had made a month or so ago. There were a couple with glass beads dropped into the bottom of the glass so they were decorative; she chose two, one violet and one green and turquiose. The violet one smelled like lavender and the green and turqiose one smelled like rain. The green one was square while the violet one was oval shaped. They were both about the same size, smallish, so 3 inches or so tall and 2 inches or so wide (give or take).
She then looked around for any of the spiral candles that she had made whilst experimenting with them. She found one that was three candles all melded and shaped into a heart shape. Each "branch" or each candle had it's own wick so they would burn separately, but at the same time. This candle was red and pink.
She also found some rose shaped candles that would float in a bath that a princess might find worthy. They smelled like roses, of course! She also put a small bottle of rose bath oil.
The vanilla lotion was easy enough, there were a few on the shelf, so she plucked it up and arranged everything quite nicely in the lovely basket.
Anzee smiled and then wrapped the basket in mesh netting and tied it with a bow. She made a tag for it, which was blank, but she would fill it in when Mairi got here to pick it up.
Anzee stood back and admired her handy work and set it aside for tomorrow, when Mairi would come in.
