Easy DIY: Pumpkin Latte Coffee Body Scrub

So, be honest - are you a lover of the cult favorite Pumpkin Spice Latte? Or are you like me and love the smell and idea of it… but you’d rather have a strong black coffee?? Well whatever camp you find yourself in, I know that you will love this body scrub. It smells heavenly (like coffee infused autumn), plus the coffee ground does wonders to exfoliate your skin, boost your mood, and stimulate an increase in circulation throughout your body (this alone has many great benefits)!! And speaking of autumn, today is the official first day and I have begun making all of our fall plans. What is on your all’s list? My girls want to go apple picking, and then of course a pumpkin patch or two, add to that some trunk or treat/fall festivals, and then a sneak away to wine country to celebrate my husband and I’s (is that grammatically correct LOL!!??) 7th wedding anniversary! I am so excited to get this season underway! Any fun ideas for fall activities in Orange County? Comment below and let me know!

As, always, I have included some great printable labels to make this one easy for gift giving - I have no doubt anyone on your list will love it! Oh yes, and if you have been following along with me for a while, you may have noticed that I have began dabbling in video. I have still have a lot to learn but am having fun with it and I feel like it definitely is a great feature to add to all of my DIY Recipes! Hope you all enjoy and HAPPY FALL!
