Christmas Is Coming

Here's a little ditty I threw together in 15 min. I am trying to get some pages done for Shutterfly scrapbooks so I can order them for Christmas.

Blog Giveaway #3 - Sunset Soap

Sunset Soaps is a brand new shop with excellent products to sell. Shannon is the owner of the Etsy store and is eager to share her soaps with you (and she's not afraid of special requests so send them her way!).

Her Lavender Aromatherapy Bar with Confetti is hand crafted and lightly scented with lavender fragrance, commonly used in aromatherapy products. It's a beautiful bar and could sit proudly on any soap dish or in a spa basket (hint hint!).


And then she offers the Honey Almond and Oat Exfoliating Soap -- These are hand crafted honey almond and oatmeal soap bars specially designed with two different layers. The upper layer is made with oats for exfoliation. Use the top when you need a little scrub and the bottom when you don't! Made with real honey, real crushed almonds, and real oats. Lightly scented with a sweet honey almond fragrance. Lower layer is colored pink. Shannon cautions not to use this bar if you have an allergy to Nuts.




Shannon is graciously offering YOUR CHOICE of either her Exfoliating Honey Almond & Oat Bar OR her Lavendar Aromatherapy Soap with Confetti. How neat is that?
