HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY to all the wonderful mom’s! Today is all about pampering your mom/wife of your children. My mom does so much for me and my family no craft could ever make it up to her but…let’s give it a shot.
I am going to show you how to make a special one of a kind pink hand scrub! I posted a hand scrub craft last week and am kind of obsessed with making them now. I gave a few away to my friends and sister, and their reactions made my WHOLE day! Wooooooo!

What you need:
1. Epsom salt
Price: Epsom salt – $4
2. Dawn Ultra Dish soap – Olay Hand Renewal. It sounds so weird but trust me, this soap smells soo amazing and makes your hands feel like silk. No joke.
Price: $3
3. A jar. I am using the same jars I used in my Homemade Hand Scrub craft I posted last week.
Price: $9 for a 12 pack of 4oz jars
4. Something to stir with.
5. Small sampling spoons.
Price: $5 for 100 pack.
Let’s get it rollin’
1. For this scrub, you are going to mix everything in the jar since there are only two ingredients. No need for a bowl. Start by filling the jar with salt about 2/3.
2. Add dish soap right on top until the jar is full.
3. Stir everything together until the scrub reaches the consistency of your liking.
Tip: I continued to add salt to make the scrub thicker. Don’t add too much soap or the scrub will become runny.
Overall: I did two scrubs one with Epsom salt and one with white sugar. I personally like the scrub with the salt the best. The sugar started to break down and dissolve and is now separating in the jar. I probably wouldn’t give that as a gift. The salt mixture, on the other hand, turned out great, the texture is similar to a frozen margarita, thick, and it hasn’t separated at all.
I labeled my jars with a “Mother’s Day Edition” sticker, and they are all ready to be given out!
Happy Crafting ❤

Thank you, Marisa! If your jars are small you will be able to make plenty! 5-6 jars will definitely be possible!
