Mother's Day 2015 - Part Deux!

Ok, folks, second round!  This super cute mini spa kit would go perfectly with the customized candles you just made.  The kit includes: body scrub, foot soak and body butter.  They are all peppermint "flavored" but you can make them any color/smell you like.  Most of these ingredients you probably already have in your pantry.  If not, they can be easily found fairly inexpensively at your local grocery store.


Here are the ingredients you will need for the Peppermint Scrub:


The Peppermint Foot Soak:



And, last but not least, the Peppermint Body Butter:

Advent Calendar

I wanted an advent calendar that was both functional and cute to display. I came up with a series of 2x2 boxes. Perfect size for a little treat or miniature toy.
