All About Your Girls

Our girlfriends are so important. When it comes to wedding planning, your girlfriends are by your side, helping you make important decisions, listening to you vent when everything seems like too much, planning your showers and more than likely paying for a dress they will never wear again. They are such a necessity in helping you keep your sanity and making sure you always are the belle of the ball. They deserve jewels and rubies but since those aren't always in the budget, here is a great gift that is simple and inexpensive to make:

Body Scrub

Tools and Materials
2 cups Epsom salts or organic cane sugar
1 cup carrier oil
8 drops essential oil(s)
1 drop food coloring
Special equipment: plastic pipette, canning jars

Directions
1. Stir together Epsom salts or sugar and carrier oil in a bowl, mixing well.

2. Using pipette, add essential oil, 1 drop at a time. Add food coloring, and stir until color is even throughout. Spoon into canning jars.

3. Download clip-art labels, enlarging or reducing to fit top of canning jar if necessary. Print onto ink-jet bumper-sticker paper (which is designed to withstand water). Cut out the labels, and affix to clean jars.

Martha Stewart inspired this great idea and you can even find templates here for printing cute labels.
