You gotta love Pinterest!

Pinterest is addicting! I was looking for a unique gift for everyone for Thanksgiving. I settled on homemade Pumpkin Spice Sugar Scrub for the girls & Rosemary Mint Shaving Cream for the guys. Both were super easy & a big hit.

My only changes were: sugar scrub - double the spices or you won't smell it; shaving cream - I substituted vegetable oil for the jojoba oil - MUCH cheaper!

Notes: I bought my 8 oz mason jars at Winco for about $8 a dozen. I got the coconut oil at Super Wal Mart for $6 for 32 oz.

The tags were made on MS Word. I just did 2 tag shapes - one slightly smaller than the other - & typed in the text. I cut the tags out, applied the smaller one on top of the larger one with a foam tape square, then punched a hole in the end. I tied the tags to the mason jars with raffia, using cinnamon sticks & ornamental rosemary as embellishments. The jar lids are covered with a piece of paper that I cut out using the lid as a guide.
