Homemade Vanilla Latte Sugar Scrub







Vanilla Latte Sugar Scrub Ingredients:
Sugar
Coffee Grounds (used)
Coconut Oil
3/4 oz Vanilla Essential Oil- (bath and body safe)

This sugar scrub smells great and leaves your skin noticeably softer just after one use.
Plus you get the extra benefits of the coffee that exfoliates, tightens skin, and is reportedly helpful on cellulite!
I dont have the exact amount of ingredients used, because I made a big batch for Christmas gifts, starting with a 5lb bag of sugar and just adding the coffee and oil until I was happy with the consistency.


Happy Creating! T.

White Roses Tag





Stamplorations-December Mixed Media Challenge (Use A Stencil)

For this challenge I used the "Build Me A Rose" stencil applied with picket fence distress paint. I created the background using distress paints and a few spritz's of hydrangea blue starburst spray. I went over the roses with a white gel pen for more definition. Stamping everything else in white ink.

Learn to pause... or nothing worthwhile will catch up to you.
