December 1 is right around the corner. We usually start our Advent readings on that day. We also will start the Grow Your Heart challenge again this year. December always feels so full of activity. Since December is so busy, I thought I would re-post a few things from last year to give anyone out there a head start in getting ready.
I have a few new things planned for this December that I hope to get to share with you.
I always like to give my kids teachers some kind of gift at Christmas to let them know how much we appreciate their time and effort with our children. This year the Wednesday night choir and mission teachers got Bath and Bodyworks hand sanitizers and small chocolate candy bars. My children will be handing out homemade Sugar Scrubs to their Sunday school teachers tomorrow.
We make these in small Mason jars. It’s simple but I love it!
All Natural Sugar Body Scrub
1/4 cup sugar
melted organic coconut oil
4 drops of essential oil of choice (we used grapefruit)
I put the sugar in the jars, pour in the oil and the essential oil. Stir and add more oil to get the perfect consistency. It should be soft enough to apply without losing a lot in the transfer from jar to body. You have to play around with it until it seems right to you.
We are crafting, creating, baking, and wildly cleaning around here!
