When I first opened the Kelp Powder, I was a little unsure. Sure, I was in love with the color but I wasn’t so sure about the odor. It smelled salty and even a little fishy. I wasn’t quite sure what to do. What do you think? Will the odor […]

2 I love spices and I love coffee. When you mix the two together, I am a very happy camper. I wanted to make a lotion stick because they are easy to apply and sometimes can double act as a solid perfume. I am more than happy to smell like a […]
Spiced Coffee Butter Stick
2 I wanted to approach today’s blog with caution. Red is a difficult color to achieve for clothes and finding soap stable reds has been a nightmare. I didn’t really want to make any assumptions because I didn’t want to get my hopes up. Finding a good red is hard and […]
Madder Root Powder Soap
2 Spring is here! Snow has melted and plants are starting to push their way up through the soil, budding and turning green. I am reveling in every moment I can steal outside in the sun. It has been fantastic! What do you have blooming outside? Just outside my door and […]
Spring has sprung!
Hallelujah! It is WEEKEND! I was so ready for a break by Wednesday! I had one of those weeks where you are so busy you need to recharge your cellphone every night and are considering of asking your friends and family to put you on their do not call list. […]
Freebie Friday!
10 I love the scent combination of vanilla and mint. There is just something soothing about it. I have a friend who spends all day on his feet, walking and standing. When he gets off work and gets home the first thing he does is take off his shoes. At least […]
Vanilla and Menthol Foot Cream
12 I don’t know about you but I suffer from flyaways. It’s enough to drive me crazy! I will brush my hair, have it looking all nice and 15 minutes later it looks like I did my hair with an egg beater. It gets especially bad if the weather is humid. […]

Virgin Coconut Oil Lotion
12 Today I have spring on my mind. Spring is amazing to me. The world is waking up, sprouting, budding, etc. It is the one time of the year that our landscape is completely carpeted with green. (Living in a desert does not do much for having greenery.) However, spring also […]

Creamy Chai Lotion
18 Today, I wanted to make a small room spray that could go in my purse. Especially since I am back to my routine in school. It took me a while to get settled. Sometimes I have to use a public restroom when returning from school on my way home. Somedays […]
Creamy Chai Room Spray
Scrubs are often overlooked and not just by those of us who make body care products at home. They are often overlooked by consumers as well. Making sure that your skin is exfoliated on a regular basis not only helps make your skin smoother, but it also makes it softer. […]
