Soft scrub... homemade...

by MommaRock - 10/16/2012 08:04:00 AM

I had soft scrub, the orange kid on my list to get

at the grocery store yesterday.

But when I got there, my store didn't have it, they had the

regular soft scrub. But when I saw the price I about

gagged right there in front to the lady that was walking by me.

It was $6 and some change.

No way was I buying that.

Well, I was looking around for other off brand soft scrubs,

I was looking for any orange scrub, but none was there.

I noticed some orange dishwashing detergent, store brand. And then I saw some

cheap natural powder cleanser by Bon Ami. I read the ingredients in the Bon Ami and I liked that it was all natural.

So, I bought these 2 products figuring I could make my own soft scrub.

The store brand detergent cost $3.29

and the Bon Ami cost 99cents.

I did make a wonderful soft scrub and for

only 81 cents a bottle.

And I have enough product left to make 4 more bottles.

Please see the video I made about it :

I am working on a small revamp of my living room.
I brought in 2 blackish (you can see a little wood grain in them) from my patio room. They belong to my daughter , but I have been storing them here for more than a year, and it doesn't look like she will be using them anytime soon or even later so she has kindle let me use them.

I wanted to add them to the same wall that my TV is at to make a unit for all my videos and pictures.

I also have several pictures to put up

and so many more to get get framed and hung.

I have pale yellow walls with white baseboards

and I have used nothing but black frames

for all my photos so far.

Here is a little video I put together to share:

Thanks for stopping by!

Take care everyone!!

Halloween Tag Swap
{video clip}

My little video sharing with you the tag I made for a tag swap I participated in.

Please click the above link to view my video.

Here are the pictures of my tag.
I made two in case one came out icky, I could send the better of the two. LOL

!!! Spoiler Alert !!!
Don't peak Jo from Australia {my swap partner}.

The tags have purple, black and gold fibers, I also made a small little pocket for the tiny removable tags that say "Witches Ball"

{came from The Altered Paper }

I used my own spritz paints I made from acrylic paints. I also used a bingo dauber and my finger to distress the edges. And I was able to pick up a small box of Halloween chipboard pieces

on sale at Joanne's for $2.99.
