DIY Pampering

For many reasons growing up I never got into the self-pampering things that most girls I know love. The ideas about spa days sound anything but pleasant. I would much rather be gaming with my hubby, making graphs/charts, planning or working in my garden or anything else that keeps my hands busy. Not to mention we haven't always had the disposable income for such things. However, having three daughters, there are some skills we need to learn if we don't want to spend on some self care treatments. 

Learning how to cut hair has been easy but I would love to learn some new tricks for cute dews. 

However, today I want to learn how to do a nice manicure/pedicure. Something a little more than your basic nail clipping.

Think it's time for me and my girls to learn some self-care. Thankful for the opportunity. 

I think the main thing is skin hydration, everything says to soak your hands and feet. Then a nice buffer over the nails, also the cuticle solvent is something to try. Well, wish me luck lol. My hands are going to be digging in the dirt soon but I still want them healthy.
