These are some organic sugar body scrubs I made. Here is the full tute here. It was very easy. I put Penelope in her highchair to supervise, since I don't have one of these (oh, please Santa, bring me on for Christmas!) and it took 15 minutes from start to finish, including the fabric tops. Oh and I made mine with olive oil instead of coconut oil and used far more lavender drops than they recommend in the tute.
For the tops, I just cut out three squares from scrap fabric. Remember this stack of remnants I scored in Havana? You put the flat lid of the mason jar on first, then lay down the fabric, then screw on the other part of the lid. I also tied some bows and slapped on a From Stephanie's Kitchen sticker, that I bought from the Polka Dot Press a couple of years ago. I have seen several free downloadable versions online though, so search around first.
This is a 5 minute apron, no joke. I bought a napkin from World Market, I originally wanted to buy a dish towel, but they didn't have any I was in love with and the napkin was only $2.99. I had the red buttons and the ribbon on hand from previous project. I sewed the ribbon and button on and then trimmed the ribbon to be able to wrap around my waist twice.
I got the idea from another local, crafty gal (actually her MIL to be exact), she has a super cute blog too.
Here are couple more ideas:
Clothespin Gift Tags, every since I modpodged some old wipe containers and glass vases for Penelope's birthday, I want to modpodge everything.
Wine Gift Bag
Homemade Cocoa Powder, thanks for the link Ashely!
And when I went to Prudent Baby to get a link for the sugar scrub above, I saw that they are doing the EXACT same post over there...I swear I came up with this post idea on my own! So for even more ideas check them out here, they are the masters.
That apron is so cute!
