Homemade Body Scrub

I love the idea of giving homemade gifts to friends for Christmas.

In a few weeks, I will be hosting a cookie & ornament exchange party

and I think a homemade body scrub will be the perfect party favor.

My friends can leave with homemade cookies, a new Christmas tree ornament,

and a little something for some pampering. Today, I made some for me

to test it and I already love it. It is also perfect for dry hands.

I am thinking I may keep a jar by my hand soap.

Lemon Sugar Scrub*

1 cup of organic cane sugar**

1 (4 oz) bottle of Burt's Bees Bath & Body Oil

lemon zest of half a lemon, optional

12 oz PET jar with cap, sks-bottle.com

The label I used on the jar can be found here. 

I just printed the labels on sticker paper.

* recipe makes 1 jar

** you can use sea salt or Epsom salt, but I find salt can sometimes irritate my skin.
