I used an empty jar of mushrooms as a container for a brown sugar scrub. The scrub recipe was brown sugar, baby oil, and body soap. After mixing, I poured into the mushroom jar, hot-glued a fabric scrap from my baby's receiving blanket on the lid, and used a CD label cut in half for my hand lettered label. Cost- Less than $2.00
I used body wash (so it has a little lather) and baby oil. I just used a guesstamate as to proportions, but I'd say 2/3 sugar to 1/3 oil and soap. When I mixed it together, it had a creamy consistancy. Hope this helps.
This is a great idea! Can you share the recipe? I've decided to make "GIRLIE" baskets for all my nieces next year and also people in the office. This would be a great addition. Thanks!
Thank you for this! My daughter in law is here visiting and I showed it to her and she launched into a dissertation about the healing and cleansing properties of brown sugar, none of which I knew. She has a salon/spa and they use brown sugar for cleansing feet.
