Pinterest Party Part 3....Sugar Scrub

My daughter, "Big Sis" & my granddaughter, "Angel"
had so much fun putting together another  Pinterest
project at the party!

"Big Sis" ??
Have you wondered where that came from?
When "Sweet Teen", our oldest granddaughter was born,
she didn't call her aunt by name, she called her "Big Sis"
and it stuck.  So now we all call her "Big Sis"!!!

I have to tell you that she is such a good aunt.
She takes time with all of her neices and nephews.
Angel goes anywhere she can with her.
They are two of a kind.

They are making a sugar scrub for Christmas gifts.
They used Massage oil that had a scent to it along with olive oil
and sugar. "Big Sis" found this project on Pinterest.

Everyone brought their own ingredients and after we ate
we all got busy.

You can see it turning into a scrub right before your eyes.

"Angel" enjoys doing anything with her whole family.
She just goes along with whatever we do.

Close up view.
You should have smelled the room!!!

There is nothing like making memories together.
I have special memories of one of my aunts.
Aunt Joyce. I will never forget the special time she took with me.

The finished project.
Body Sugar Scrub
Isn't it pretty?
***********
I have lots more to show you from the party. For a while all we did was pin.  I still do a lot of that.
But the Pinterest party enabled us all to do at least one of our dream projects.

A Pinterest Quote
Enjoy the "little" things in life.....for one day you'll look back
 and realize they were the "Big" things.

It makes such a pretty gift too. Isn't it wonderful that Big Sis has special moments with Angel? They look like they really enjoy their time together.

One question ? Did they happen to find out how long the scrub would smell good? Just curious - have wanted to do that for a while now. You guys have a very special family.

Such sweet memories in the making indeed! That Sugar Scrub looks wonderful and can you perhaps share the recipe for it? I love Pinterest even though I've only just joined a couple of weeks ago, it's not hard to get addicted to! lol Wish I lived near, I would so love to have joined you all for that party:-) xoxo
