There are several sugar scrubs on Pinterest.
Here’s what I did with the following ingredients:
Sugar
Dawn with Olay Hand Renewal
A cute Mason Jar
1. I filled the jar with sugar, to the first ridge. Leaving room to stir.
2. Then I poured in the Dawn.
3. Stir well.
4. Add more sugar and stir, if needed.
I used the round white Avery labels, I bought mine at Walmart.
I packed them back in to their box, took them to the store and gave my Painting Friends a little gift for Christmas!
These are the cutest, easiest, most useful gifts!

My thoughts and prayers go out to the families of the Victims of Sandy Hook.
I think of my own grandsons, the school they attend is the same grade/age range as Sandy Hook and my heart breaks thinking of these families.
Praying.

How would you add color or fragrance ?
Alice, the Dawn has different fragrances and different colors. I just chose the blue and white.
What a great present and I love your personalized gift tags too. I will by pinning and copying!

How CUTE and practical!
After reading the comments I see that the colored jars had a colored Dawn liquid. That’s easy!!!!
Why might I want to add more sugar? Is there a consistency that is needed?
And how do you use the scrub? (I hope that doesn’t seem to obvious to everyone else?)

Diane, adding more sugar just makes a thicker solution. Painters and gardeners love to scrub with this awesome easy sugar scrub

What a great idea, Debbie! My teacher friends would love something like this! Thanks for sharing ~ xo Heidi
PS — I’ve been so heavy hearted as I look at my little preschoolers this week; yesterday during our Christmas program we all wore ribbons in memory of the Sandy Hook victims. Just can’t wrap my head around such a tragedy.
