Blog Give-Away Day!

It's give-away day and I have something special for you. Up for grabs today (and for a couple more days, as suggested by the people at Sew, Mama, Sew) are these 3 handcrafted soaps. Two are lightly scented with "Endless Love" and the brown layered guy is "Hint of Mint Chocolate."

Handmade soap is truly an affordable luxury. It can transform your daily shower or bath into a fragrant, sudsy escape. Handmade soap gently cleans without stripping your skin's natural oils. The result is clean, soft, healthy-feeling skin. You can try some now for free, through this give-away day.



As well as a PRINT of one of my paintings, "Alice Contemplates Her Apple." 8" x 8"




TO ENTER: Simply leave a comment on this post and on Friday, December 5th, I will randomly draw one of the names to receive these gifts. Easy as Pie!

I will ship to the United States, Canada, Australia and the UK--or if you know your country has reasonable shipping prices, that's great too.

And, for all who visit today, I am giving away a great little PDF booklet on the high joy vibration of gratitude. Download here.

Thanks do much for your booklet! Wishing you happy holidays!

Meredith said...

Handmade soaps are fabulous! Especially with handmade washcloths. I can send you links to a few patterns if you want. You're right, cotton is a tough one to start with because it has no elasticity which makes it hard on the hands and hard to get an even gauge. But there is nothing like a handmade cotton or hemp washcloth, so it's worth it!

Monica Gee said...

Lovely soap!
