Plunging In!

Our first meeting of the year was a success! It was wonderful to see so many new faces, we hope that everyone had a great time & will be back for more! 

To kick off the meeting, the Steering Team introduced themselves & their positions, while dressing up for their part.. silly girls! 



After breakfast & announcements, Melissa got us started on some pampering crafts!

Working hard on making sugar scrubs:



Having fun making lip gloss!

If you would like to re-create these crafts at home, here are the instructions!

Sugar Scrub
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons olive oil
Mix together.
Add scent (peppermint, almond or whatever extract you wish).
Package into jar.


Lip Gloss
Melt 1/2- 1 tablespoon Vaseline
(Melt in microwave in 30 increments. Stir each time until melted).
Let cool few minutes until mixture starts to look slightly cloudy.
Quickly add flavoring (cherry kool-aid, cocoa, peppermint.. etc).
Mix until dissolved (about 30 seconds).
Pour into lip gloss container and allow to cool into solid before closing lid.

Thank you Melissa for the fun crafts!
