I believe that life is a series of stories worth telling and man, do I have some to share! I am a wife and mom of 4 (and counting). I am a storyteller and dreamer turned blogger and podcaster. I delight in always finding something new to create and do around our home. I am passionate about living my life in joy through every season of marriage, motherhood, and business. I love to share our love and our life, authentically and unfiltered, to inspire you to find joy in your everyday. Cozy up and find something fun!

3 Ingredient DIY Sugar Scrubs


This fun, fall bath-and-body, make-and-take workshop is fun for a girls' day or night in with friends and kids. It was a crowd pleaser and everyone got to see how simple oils can be with a little direction.


Sugar Scrub Workshop

We had so much fun at our fall sugar scrub workshop and I thought I'd share the photos here! Each month, we will be hosting virtual workshops where you can purchase your DIY kit and make your own at home. If you don't have oils at home, we will send you everything you need to follow the video and blog and DIY! Or, you can purchase all the ingredients listed below in the recipe and gather them yourself.


During the workshop I had diffusers filled all around my house with different scents and recipes so the girls could smell and see which recipe and oils they would like to use.



No Secrets Here


My mission at JPF is to be authentic and transparent with you. No secrets, no gimmicks. It's just that simple. I feel that if you love what we have to offer- whether products or resources, you'll join in and help your family by creating a clean lifestyle. I believe what you give, you receive back, so even if I'm not making a killing, I'll support my family. That's why I'll continue to show you how it's done, I'll pave the way, in hopes you'll join me on this journey and continue helping your family know and do better.


Today we create sugar scrubs from scratch in my kitchen! YIPEE!!!


You can either make them along side me, by grabbing the ingredients yourself, or you can purchase my sugar scrubs in our market.


*Note: previously we were making our sugar scrubs with food coloring and in an effort to achieve a clean lifestyle, we no longer add food coloring or dyes.

The Challenge

For the next 3 weeks, we will be looking in our homes for these toxic chemicals that are free ranging in our homes- from the bathroom to the kitchen cabinets and even sitting on your counters delivering your senses a wonderful aroma that could be harming your littles.


We challenge you this week to take a good hard look at all the things in your bathroom you use every day, those things you use to clean your skin and make you smell nice, they may be causing you and your family harm.
