40 Hot Homemade Gift Ideas: 20 More for the Ladies!
As the finale for the 40 (what’s ended up to be much more than 40) homemade crunchy gift ideas, I give you a plethora of ideas for the ladies in your life. We’re so blessed, as women, to be so easy to make things for. Really. We are.
Because this list is huge, I’m keeping my chit chat to a minimum. (You’re welcome.)
But, if you’ve missed the first two lists for the kids and the men, here they are:

Nutty Butt Butter: Your Little Cellulite Secret
Several weeks ago, I posted a quick tutorial on how to make lotion bars. They were fun and cute and all kidsy … until you read to the bottom and see a mention of Nutty Butt Butter (which are also lotion bars).
It was just a little something I whipped up on the spur of the moment that’s designed to help break down and disappear cellulite. And the room went wild. Everyone’s been asking me for this recipe, and since I’m making it for the swap on Sunday, here it is in all its glory.
It’s been tweaked a bit since my first recipe, and heaven love it, it’s pretty danged awesome. However, the recipe I made is pretty intense in terms of ingredients and cost, so at the bottom, I’ll give you a pared down recipe you can use if you don’t want to shell out the monies for the whole thing.
When you make this, you’ll actually do it in two parts (over a week), but both parts are easy like Sunday morning.
Crunchy Gift Ideas: Love ALL the Lavender!
A couple of weeks ago, early in the morning, my friendly postman rang the doorbell. And I trudged. And trudged.
And trudged.
Down the 10 stairs to my front door.
(TRUDGED.)
He handed me a pretty box and said, “Good day, morning-faced lady.” And I mumbled, “Good day to you, fine sir! How are you this gorgeous morning. You’re looking swell!” “Uh-huh.”
Inside this box was a booty full of surprise (just for me!) from the gorgeous Stephanie. Nothing has made my day quite like it since. Inside was a spot of tea, some sea salt, and a little lavender.
By a little lavender, I mean an effing flotilla full of it.
Test: How Hip Are You to the Crunchy Lingo?
OMG, the internet world is full of abbreviations for everything these days. FWIW, even I still get confused sometimes. It’s a PITA, I won’t lie.
The world of crunchiness is no different – we’re always tossing around abbreviations and uncommon terms for things, and it’s a bit confusing for the newly crunchy.
To this day, I still get emails and comments all the time asking for a definition of our “inside speak,” so here’s a little test to see where you rank in the knowledge of crunchy words and abbrevs.
Think of it as the equivalent to a Cosmo quiz asking you what your knowledge on certain, uh, positions is. Only this isn’t kinky (mostly), it’s not going to reveal your secret inner sex kitten abilities (probably), and I’m totally not going to label you as silly stereotypes based on your abilities (wrong! I totally am).
