The girls and I have been crafting up a storm.
We’re trying a new craft/ornament every day … so much fun and LOTS of messes. 🙂
Some crafts have become tags on Christmas presents, some will hang on the tree.
When it comes to Christmas and gift giving, it honestly doesn’t have to be ‘all about money.’
Homemade gifts are definitely the way to go.
It’s heartfelt.
And unique.
And it saves you money. 🙂
But for someone who can’t sew or make a lot of things, homemade gifts can be challenging. Give me google and an idea, though, and I’m all over it! Today’s idea: homemade body scrub.
Lucia and me made this today … it was {super} easy and it smells divine! We’re giving them as gifts this year (piano teachers, aunts, etc.).
And all you need is sugar, olive oil and essential oil … oh, and a pretty jar.
Mix the sugar with the oil – enough that the sugar is completely covered – and then drop in your choice of essential oil (I choose sugar cookie – which I purchased from this etsy shop). Mix and voila – scrumptious, amazing, EASY {made with love} gifts for you to bless someone with this Christmas.
And it’s easy on your budget, as well. Christmas doesn’t have to be all about the amount of money spent on a present.
It’s all about the {love} …
