As I have stated recently I too have joined the Pinterest nation. I came across this sugar scrub and decided to make it for Anna's teachers as part of their Christmas gifts. It is the first time I have made a scrub and it will not be my last. This is super easy and makes a great gift. The whole thing - scrub, container, and label - were completed in about 20 minutes. I had the fabric at home and just used some card stock that I had at home for the labels; however you could get really carried away the labels if you are a major scrapbooker (I am not). I also did a foot scrub - Will post the recipe later. I packaged this scrub and the foot scrub in a cute bag with some super soft socks.
Items you will need for this project:
- Mixing bowl and spoon
- 3 cups White Sugar
- 1 cup + 2 tbsp. quality oil (the woman who posted this used olive oil, but you can use any nice, non-smelly oil)
- 10 drops of "yummy" scented essential oil per jar you are making (this amount filled 4 8oz Ball jars, so I used 40 drops of oil)

Combine your sugar and oil. Mix well, and divide into separate bowls if you are planning to flavor them separately (you can skip this if you are only doing one scent) Add your essential oil, stir and divide among your jars.
Done! Easy Peasy!
I cut a square of fabric to cover over the top of my jar to make it more festive.
