A little bit of Etsy shopping...

I have been doing a bit of shopping and window shopping on Etsy lately. My most recent purchase was from a fellow Soaper Stars Street Team member cleanbright. She is having a 50% off moving sale which means you'll get a fabulous deal on some beautiful products!

I purchased her Georgia Natural Perfume Oil.

Just listen to the heavenly scents in the perfume oil:

"The main notes are Kewda Attar, Jasmine Grandiflorum, Ylang Ylang and Tree Moss. These are supported by Ambrette Seed, Lime and Benzoin, with just a hint of Black Pepper, Vetiver and Neroli."

Yes, I will be in heaven once this arrives!

I also added the Mommy-in-Waiting Massage Oil to my cart. Yes, I will be hitting up my dear hubby for a massage very soon.


I cannot wait to receive these items! The members of our street team have so much talent and knowledge and I just love their products.

Two Featured Spots!

Preparing to Make Soap

This is just me playing around with making a small batch of soap. My oils are in the pot and I just need to get my goggles and gloves on so I can pour the lye solution with soy milk into the oils. Then I mix away.

Goggles are sexy, eh? They are definitely required though when making soap. You never want to splash raw soap in your eyes. It will burn like the dickens! Fortunately, I have not had any accidents yet. *knocks on wood*

And below, you'll find the end product:

Passionfruit Rose Lip Balm

My newest lip balm creation can be found in my Etsy shop.

Pamper yourself with this delicious lip balm in Passionfruit Rose flavor. It's an exotic fruity rose that is both cool and tropical. This is a unique and delicious fragrance!

I have carefully formulated this balm to have a nice glide while protecting and nourishing your lips. Castor oil and fractionated coconut oils help make this a non-sticky, non-waxy lip treat! Shea butter and high oleic sunflower oil offer high emollient and skin soothing properties.

Special Deal on Soaps!

Today, I posted a special deal for my soaps on Etsy. You can purchase 5 soaps for $22! If you purchased them separately, you'd pay a bit more. I hope this little package deal will be to everyone's liking. I thought of doing 3 soaps, but I can fit more in a USPS Priority Mail envelope and want to give my customers as much bang for their buck as I can.

Today's Soap

Messy mold, but a good smelling soap. I poured it pretty thick so the top had to be textured again. I haven't thought of a name for the soap yet, but the scent is a fruity floral with notes of Bartlett pear, apricot, white peach, plum blossom, and mimosa. Under the mica colored top is a soap colored with rose kaolin clay. I'm hoping for a nice mauve color. We'll see once it's revealed and cut tomorrow.

Etsy Store - RedCrowArts

Let me tell you, Etsy is about the best thing in my mind. There is an abundance of talent in all areas of things that can be made by hand. Recently, I received 5 ceramic pendants from RedCrowArts.

Handformed Stoneware Pendant

Teardrop Pottery (I love the simplicity of this piece)

Stoneware Clay Tree of Life
Handformed Stoneware Clay Stoneware Clay Leaf Design

Aren't they fabulous? The last two are my favorites. When I get some jewelry making practice in, I plan on putting these beauties on some necklaces.
