I decided this year to make my Christmas gifts. I wanted to give something personal. I also believe that gift giving has gotten so out of hand that we are losing the true meaning behind what this season is about. Jesus! My attempt at home made gifts is to personalize the season, and to remind everyone that you don't have to spend an entire paycheck to show someone you care about them. We should be doing that all year long, anyway. I also get to avoid the crowds of people who are frantically searching for the latest trend. I LOVE this time of year, but it seems that people are careless and rude everywhere I go!Complaints aside, I settled on a hand scrub recipe that I found on...wait for it......... Pinterest! What I loved best about this particular scrub is that I had all of the ingredients in my kitchen!
You will need:
Sugar Dawn Hand Renewal dish soap (with Olay)
Mason jar, size of your choosing. I used the 16oz.
What to do:
1) Fill the jar about 3/4 full of sugar
2) Pour the Dawn until it reaches just below the lip of the jar 3) Mix
4) Add sugar until it's a pasty consistency
That's it!
I tied yarn around mine and put an ingredient tag for anyone who wants to make their own once it's all gone. My hands were amazingly soft!
(Excuse my photo that I labeled 1/3 cup sugar.)
I LOVE CREATING!
