Get a Head Start on Homemade Holiday Gifts
Posted on 17 November 2009 by Hilary
Nothing says Happy Holidays like a special gift made by you, especially one that is personalized with the recipient in mind.
Homemade Sugar Scrubs are easy to make, smell delicious, and are a wonderful gift for anyone you know that could use a little pampering after a day baking in the kitchen!
Brown Sugar Body Scrub
1/2 cup ground almonds
1/2 cup ground oatmeal
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup almond oil
1 tsp. vanilla extract
Small containers with lids
Combine all ingredients using a spatula in a large bowl until well blended. The mix should have a paste like texture. If it is too dry add more oil a few drops of oil at a time. Conversely, if it is too oily add more dry ingredients until you reach the desired consistency. Store in jars for up to 2 weeks in refrigerator. May need to mix before use if ingredients settle.
Know someone who could go for a little spice? The Brown Sugar Sweet & Spicy Sugar Scrub is not only perfect for them, but uses ingredients you may already have in your pantry!
