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.

November 24, 2013 at 6:47 amCan this be used as a full body scrub?
Debbie says
December 1, 2013 at 2:16 pmHi Marsha, I’m not sure about the whole body but I would use it on my feet and hands! Let me know if you try the whole body.

November 23, 2013 at 8:24 pmI made this last Christmas and added coconut oil to mine. An other plus is, if you mix it with your hands, they’re smooth as silk whrn you finish. 🙂

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.

December 19, 2012 at 12:53 pmHow 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?) 😀
Debbie says
December 19, 2012 at 9:08 pmDiane, adding more sugar just makes a thicker solution. Painters and gardeners love to scrub with this awesome easy sugar scrub 🙂
