Gardener’s Sugar Scrub
This frugal body care DIY is one of our favorite low-cost gifts for teachers. It helps rejuvenate skin from the inside out and is a favorite of Dr. Z’s and mine as it sloughs off old skin and leaves us feeling smooth and moisturized. This particular blend is great for relieving sore muscles after a day hiking on vacation so it's a functional gift as well as being an affordable teacher gift.
