Three ingredient Mint Sugar Scrub is an easy DIY homemade gift idea perfect for teacher gifts or gifting to friends and family, complete with printable tags!
Mint Sugar Scrub
Recently, I shared the White Christmas themed teacher gifts that I put together for my son's teachers. They were almost overflowing with gifts that were {mostly} white - I love a good themed gift! Anyway, one of the goodies tucked in each gift was this 3 ingredient mint sugar scrub! This is such an easy handmade gift!
How to Make Mint Sugar Scrub
This is literally a 5 minute DIY gift and you only need 3 ingredients!
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- ½ cup coconut oil
- 2 teaspoons peppermint extract
To make the scrub, add the sugar, coconut oil, and peppermint extract to a bowl and use a craft stick or plastic spoon to stir them together until combined. Package up in jars (I found mine at the dollar store) and gift with these printable tags! Easy-peasy!
Click here to download your free printable Mint Sugar Scrub tags. Simply download and print the tags, cut them out and use a hole punch at the top so you can tie them on with ribbon.
This really is such an easy homemade gift, and best of all, it's a homemade gift your recipient will actually want to receive! Winning!
If you need more easy, inexpensive and festive holiday gifts, look no further!
This easy scrub idea was inspired by the sugar hand scrub over at The Gunny Sack!

Jelli says
Clever, simple, and I LOVE it! This is totally up my alley. Great idea, Keri. Thanks for sharing. Pinning.
Natalie says
This is awesome! Can you use this on your body or just your hands?
Keri says
I used a body wash to mix with the sugar, so you can use it on both. If you only want a hand scrub, you can mix in your favorite liquid hand soap. So glad you stopped by, Natalie!
