Style Me Quick – DIY Work Out Gear

May 10, 2015 by Shellie Wilson Leave a Comment

Yesterday we wrote about the DIY Gym equipment to help motivate you to start exercising. Well today we thought we would share this amazing round up by Grosgrainfabulous. She shares 30, yes 30 different variations of DIY gym or exercise clothes. You don’t need to spend a $100 on a crop top (smaller than a g-string thong) or $50 on a bright over shirt for the sole purpose of sitting on top of the original $100 crop top. I hate Lorna Jane and Nike. No not them personally but for what they stand for. Overpriced/make me look cool/ I paid way too much for these/ over priced clothing items that do not aid my weight-loss.

My workout clothes consist of Walmart pants, top and over shirt. (I needed the extra layers to cover the extra fat)

I plan to grab some $2-3 t-shirts in colors and try out a few of these if not ALL of these variations. I don’t think I will go for fluro colors as lets face it fluro was invented for night vision only. Fluro is not actually intended as day wear. That’s my logic and besides I don’t exercise at night time because I wrangle kids into showers and pajamas and I just wear my Mommy clothes for that workout.

DIY Christmas Cherry Body Scrub

If you love simple handmade gifts that still feel festive and special, this DIY Christmas Cherry Body Scrub from CraftBits is such a fun little project. It is bright, pretty, and has that sweet cherry scent that makes it feel perfect for Christmas gifting.

What I like about this tutorial is how easy it is to pull together. The scrub uses granulated sugar, sweet almond oil or another carrier oil, red cherry fragrance oil, and a touch of mica powder for color, so it feels like one of those projects you can make quickly but still package up beautifully.

It is the kind of bath and body recipe that works really well for teacher gifts, stocking stuffers, hostess gifts, or just a little festive treat for yourself. The pretty pink-red color and cherry fragrance give it a cheerful Christmas feel without needing anything too complicated.

The tutorial itself is wonderfully straightforward too. You simply combine the ingredients well and store the finished scrub in an airtight container, which makes this a lovely beginner-friendly project for holiday crafting.

If you are looking for a quick Christmas body scrub recipe that feels handmade, giftable, and easy to recreate, this one is a sweet little pick.
