Hello friends!
I’m so excited to kick off the beginning of December with the 12 Days of DIYs!
I got this idea during one of our team’s power hours, and I’ve been stoooooked to make it happen! I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE doing DIY’s, and I think often times people think DIY = complicated.
But that doesn’t have to be true!
I’m hoping over the next 11 days (twelve including today’s post) that these DIY’s will encourage you to get your hands dirty, get a little crafty, and maybe make a few special homemade gifts this year.
So I wanted to kick things off with a fun and festive holiday themed DIY!
I decided to go with a sugar scrub, because it’s classic, you likely have all the ingredients already in your home, and it’s SUPER easy to modify to fit what you have in your kitchen, or the scents you prefer to make.
For today’s DIY, I decided to go with a Vanilla Peppermint Sugar Scrub and a Gingerbread Latte Sugar Scrub.
