Since we move this Saturday, both Tim and I have been a bit overwhelmed with the details of packing, renting, cleaning, etc. I decided to take a bit of a break from it all yesterday morning and come up with a cute little gift for my Thursday Bible Study ladies. Since we studied the book of Esther, I thought a "beauty treatment" gift would be fun. I found this recipe for Lemon Sugar Scrub at Under the Table and Dreaming and decided to give it a try...
I love this recipe because the three ingredients are things I usually have at home. Sugar, evoo, lemons. That's it!
I used a bit more olive oil then the recipe called for because the bottles I bought have a narrow mouth and I needed the scrub to pour out a bit easier.
After mixing well, I scooped the scrub into the plastic bottles I bought at Michael's (40% off) and decorated with a colorful "thank you" sticker and raffia. I love how they turned out!!

ReplyDeleteI think it's really comical that "behind the scenes" next to your microwave, Jose Cuervo and Malibu Rum watch you make your Bible Study gifts... I just got a silly kick out of that! I just made a brown sugar/olive oil scrub the other day and used it this morning. It must just be time to exfoliate!
ReplyDeleteLove you, guys, praying for you!
