Tuesday Tutorial

I don't know about y'all, but every year around this time, I get bit by the craft bug. I love holiday crafts in general, but if I can make a gift out of it? Even better.

I made this recently as a gift, and I thought it was so simple and cute, why not pass it along? I got the idea from this blog a few weeks ago. I'd just been waiting for it to get a little closer to Fall before testing it out. It's inexpensive, easy, and makes such a cute gift.

So here ya go...

Pumpkin Spice Sugar Scrub

(use as a hand scrub or body scrub)

via

2 Cups of Brown Sugar
1 Cup of Granulated Sugar
2 Tablespoons of Pumpkin Pie Spice
1 Cup + 1 Tablespoon of Sunflower, Safflower, or Vegetable Oil

Mix Brown Sugar, Granulated Sugar and Pumpkin Pie Spice together, making sure there are no lumps. Add in oil and mix well. The author says she likes to use Sunflower Oil that can be found in most health food stores. Sunflower oil, like other oils, can retain moisture in the skin. {Safflower Oil is very similar to the Sunflower, which is what I used} Alternately, you can use plain Vegetable Oil as well.

{she doesn't recommend using Olive Oil wth this one as the scent can be a little too powerful to mix with the warm scents of the pumpkin and brown sugar}

 

These keep well in a sealed, sanitized glass container for months.
Just keep out of direct sunlight; as you would store the oil itself.

 

She was even nice enough to make free printable labels, so go here for those.

I tied a little ribbon around the top of my jar, just to add something pretty to it.

 

Have fun!
