Spa in a jar!

As it's my Mum's Birthday today, I wanted to make something creative, I am an active pinner on Pinterest and came across 'Spa in a jar'. It looks wonderful and smells so fresh!

First of all find a jar a reasonable size to fit the goodies in, I selected a flying saucer plastic jar which can easily be found in your nearest supermarket seeet aisle! Then I bought a lovely red polka dot ribbon to match the lid from the card factory for under £2 for 2 meters. Then fill/stuff with anything you like- glitter, tissue paper e.t.c I used shredded paper.
Feel free to create a label if you wish, I made one from a piece of baby blue card. Then write and sellotape a cute message on or 'spa in a jar'.
Finally the best bit, fill with all their fave body treats.
I used products from Dove, Boots, Soap and Glory, Bayliss and Harding e.t.c

This pressie can be made by anyone, mine was around £20 something pounds but you can make an extravagant high end spa in a jar or a budget one!

Simple and effective.

The equipment you will need:
A jar
Scissors
Sellotape
Ribbon
Card
Fave bath treats
Something to fill e.g.
Tissue paper.

Memoir in a box.

After using up my deliciously scented bath products from Ted Baker I just couldn't throw away the beautiful box!
I am such an organised person but admittedly a storage hoarder!

I think it is essential to captivate every memory however big or small and what better to use then creating a memory box! I had seen others doing this and just had to try it out for myself! So far it's coming along great and I can't wait to read back through all the amazing times that have happened and still to come this year.

Why not try your own, use anything you can from a shoe box to a jam jar!

Gingerbread house creation..

Sorry for the lack of posting recently! My blogger didn't want to know:(.

So yesterday I made a very scrummy and tasty gingerbread house with my sister, despite the fact everything was premade it didn't go down completely well and decided to keep falling down.. plus we put the roof on the wrong way but it still tasted great, it's gingerbread!

For a really quick yummy treat, something to show your creative and fun side simply, try a ready made kit to start off with. Kits like this are awesome and will be in the sale as it's just after Christmas!

It's as simple as sticking the biscuits together with ready made icing and decorating as you please with any toppings you like, it also comes with little sweets!

Go create your edible masterpiece!
