I Love Winning Stuff!

Awhile back I entered one of Magaly's givaways. She had a lot of givaways going and most of them wasn't for me. But when she posted the giveaway for bath salts I had to enter. I love salty smelly goodness. I don't often get to take a bath, but when I do it's either for a cleansing meditation or relaxation after a long hard day of motherhood.

Sylph Bath Salts by GlitterTart came in the mail today. Actually I didn't even open the package because I assumed it was a book I bought my daughter on Amazon. When Sierra brought it to me I was pleasantly surprised.

The first thing I noticed is that the jar is packed completely full. Some retailers will only bring the product up to the lower rim of the lid. This is filled completely to the top so you get a little extra product. 

It smells delightful. I have a bit of an addiction to this scent. When I was pregnant with Sierra I worked for a pet products company. One of our products was scented with Eucalyptus. Every day I craved the scent of Eucalyptus. So when we had an order to fill the product I'd volunteer to do the work just so I could smell it for an hour. Does that make me a Eucalyptus huffer? lol I kept a small bottle of the product by my bed just to smell. That's how bad I was addicted to eucalyptus. lol  The bath salts remind me of this scent.

Thank you Caroline for this lovely jar of bath salts. And if you dear readers are on the hunt for a bath salt maker, check out the link for Glitter Tart etsy shop linked above.

Blessings, Love, and Light.

Moving Forward

At last! I can finally say we are moving forward. It's been a long hard road, but we are finally going to move out of my MIL's home. We just signed the lease today. We'll have to wait till DH's day off this Saturday to move. But I've been doing all of the paperwork and getting utilities in our name. We stayed and walked around the apartment for a bit and Sierra is in love with her room.

The bad news is that we have very little household items in our name. DH's aunt is giving us two love seats, one of them is a sleeper sofa. We have a table that Dh's PC can go on. Other than that, we don't have a lot and not a lot of money to buy things either. I've posted on Freecycle asking for some essentials. We also won't have Internet for a few weeks, so I'm sorry to say I won't be able to write on my own blog or indulge myself in reading your lovely blog posts. It's just a temporary hiatus though so I'll be back with fresh content and much happier for having my own space!

I'll leave you with this. It's my latest clay creation. They are Elder Futhark Runes. They are carved on both sides. I also will be working on a clay box for these to go in. Once I'm finished they will be going in my new Etsy store, Pagan Creation. I may also do a little something for a giveaway in October. So stay tuned for that!

So until next time, Blessings, love, and light to all.

Corset Giveaway

I've posted before that I'd like to try waist training with a custom made corset. That post was sparked by one late night boredom surfing on Youtube where I found the channel of a lovely young woman who makes her own corsets. I've learned a lot about custom corsets and waist training. She has a lot of informational videos I highly recommend to anyone interested in waist training.

In honor of one of her friends who sadly passed away, she is going to make and giveaway one of her creations. To find out how to enter to win, please watch her video. Don't forget to leave a comment about her departed friend.
