I LOVE Pinterest (find me here)…and I make myself feel better about spending time on it by trying to actually do some of the ideas I find there. Recently, Nicole at Simple Organic posted a succulent wreath that she made after seeing it on Pinterest and this month she’s starting a link-up party: From Pinterest to Real Life…count me in! I love making my own bath and body products, and I especially love using essential oils in everything I make…here’s a super quick and easy scrub that I made recently to give as gifts:
The recipe comes from Star Haus, and couldn’t be more simple:
2 C Fine or medium ground sea salt (use coarser salt for rougher feet)
1 C Coconut Oil
25 drops eucalyptus oil
15 drops peppermint oil
That’s it! Just combine the ingredients, put in a jar and enjoy. This scrub has a fresh and clean scent that is perfect for feet…but it does use salt, so be careful not to get in any cuts or it will sting! Here’s mine:
Here are some more projects that I have my eye on:
Ribbon Bobby Pin…so cute for Charlotte’s hair, and it’s not too early to be thinking of stocking stuffers!
Beeswax Wood Polish
No Sew Twirlers…I think Charlotte would love these!
So, what should I do next?
I want to make that! Its a definite must for my feet!
Love the foot scrub – I may have to try that this weekend. Thanks for sharing! Pinterest is my new favorite site. I have so many ideas already that I may never have time to try them all!

I was wondering if this might be just as good and less abrasive with sugar?
Yes, it would be great with sugar too! I love making sugar scrubs.
